Is it far away from The three legged cowboy? Is it the same owner as The Head Hunter? Is it walking distance from The Sausage Factory? Is there afternoon tea as at The Cockpit?

I think pointing and laughing would have more of an affect than lashing out.

They have Botox and lasers, but they don’t serve soy lattes; I called and checked.

Why do people cruise around with big ass flags mounted in their dick-up trucks? Wouldn't a bumper sticker work just as well? Or just paint the vehicle to represent your favorite country or latest idiot fad.

You mean when they ask to block whole avenues to march with big ass rainbow flags and big floats full of dancers just to tell everybody they like to be buttfucked? Wouldn't a rainbow bumper sticker work just as well?

Is the gay-bashing really necessary?

And you know the reason why some of us dislike the Confederate flag and what it stands for. But at least we aren't disrespectful about it.

What about Irish pride parades on St. Pat's day? Do you hate those equally? I bet not.

Maybe it's more common where I live. Seeing people driving pick up trucks (and it's always pick up trucks) with big ass flags mounted in the back. Like something that should be flying in your front yard. It's usually a U.S. flag or a fuck joe biden flag or Trump 2024. Sometimes even a Trump 2020 flag. Wouldn't a bumper sticker get the job done?

Yep a bumper sticker would suffice. And funny too, how many people do y'all see driving around with FUCK TRUMP flags? Case in point.

No gay bashing or St Patrick bashing from me more than there was bashing of conservative-big-ass-cars-and-flags in the first place right here in this conversation.
I'm just pointing out that often, "the world champions of Tolerance" are only tolerant...with people who share their views.

I guess the point really is...Irish and Gay pride parades are all about camaraderie and love and joyfulness. What exactly is the point of the Confederate flag flying? What are you representing exactly?

I guess you've heard the phrase the road to hell is paved with good intentions.

I'm not obsessed with any flag. I just don't see any conservative young people breaking down statues of poets and authors from last century just because they were liberal and/or gay.

When it comes to the rebel flag, I believe it now has been exterminated. So it's a win for its opponents. Myself, I only see the rebel flag as a symbol from where rock'n roll music begun when rythm and blues+country made a baby.
I just want the rebel flag to be a symbol of the heritage of Bill Haley, Little Richard, Elvis and Jerry Lee Lewis VS DJs and autotuners.
I just want space for rock'n roll music and fashion in our inner cities.
I want club owners to pay a trio of musician $500 instead of paying DJs and see more kids carrying their double bass in the streets and subways.
That's what I see in the rebel flag. No black and white shit. Fuck black and white shit.

This spot is known as "Camelot" by the bums and crackheads that live there. I knew a guy who lived there about a decade ago named "Cowboy." He wore clean clothes and was well groomed. He was popular with the trannie girls in the neighborhood. He was involved with a residential burglary and he either ratted out someone to the cops or testified against them, I don't know which. But after the guy got out of jail he went down there and hit Cowboy with a rock and killed him. This story talks about a recent fire, but there are always fires going on down there.

I really don't want to get into this conversation but I will say I'm with Ricky Bobby on this one.
