Yes.
Rebel scum are anything but royal.

Fixed it for ya.
Honest question:: Americans 'generally' (there's a pun in there, wait for it..) seem to be proud of being rebels against the Crown. However, I've seen more hate toward
Which seems to be an icon of rebellion more so than ol' glory, than I care to think about.

What's up with that?
The people who hate the rebel flag tend to hate everything else about America, too.
New York Times (a formerly respected news journal) just won a Pulitzer (a formerly respected prize) for an extended revision of history called The 1619 Project. It's premise was that the American Revolution was fought to preserve slavery in America, as the colonists were fearful that Britain's growing emancipation movement would cause the end of slavery in colonies.
This is being taught in our public schools now.

Are we still pretending slavery (or the individual states right to permit slavery) wasn't the reason for the war?
And are we still pretending the confederate flag isn't flown today mostly by bigoted rednecks? (With apologies to the rednecks on CPS who may have that flag tattooed somewhere on their person.)

Wrong war- the 1619 project is about branding the American Revolutionary War as being about protecting slave owning from British emancipation.
Under this project, it's the flag of the U***n that represents bigotry.

We had that big kerfuffle last July in which Nike rolled out a shoe with the Betsy Ross flag on it.... and then Colin Kaepernick complained that the first American flag was a symbol of racism and slavery, so Nike cancelled the shoe. https://www.wsj.com/articles/nike-nixes ... 1562024126
And then people made videos of burning their Nike shoes and pledging to boycott the company forever, etc.
Sigh.... The things we used to enjoy getting all bent over, before we had real problems.

A New York politician provided a much-needed moment of levity at her latest coronavirus briefing.
Nassau County Executive Laura Curran’s presser took an unexpected turn over the weekend when she advised against handling other people’s tennis balls when courts in the county reopen.
“You can kick their balls, but you can’t touch them,” said Curran, eliciting giggles from those in attendance.
Smiling sheepishly, she appeared to immediately regret her choice of words.

A local(ish) fly shop I follow was going to have a sale in their parking lot this Saturday, but decided it's still not safe to do so. So they sent out a coupon code that can be used for the same discounts via their web store. The code is CORONASUCKS
