I'm not big on political correctness, but deliberately provoking people, many of whom had slave ancestors (and may indeed still face some level of racism) is insensitive in the extreme.

Tatoo it on your ass if you want to, but don't fly it on the Interstate.

I thought they were flying it on private property.

Don't you think it's about time for people to dump the chip on their shoulders and just dry up about how rough their ancestors had it?

This is no more than a divisrsion, and a cheap political ploy.

Just look around as to who is giving the horse fucking now.
