HIPCHIP Posted June 25, 2015 Report Share Posted June 25, 2015 The DoH was never a racist show, in fact just the opposite. It was about good clean American values and poking fun at pretend bad guys, but apparently some don't see it that way. http://www.ew.com/article/2015/06/24/dukes-hazzard-general-lee-confederate-flag Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RogerDuke Posted June 25, 2015 Report Share Posted June 25, 2015 Things are getting silly. Imagine if someone did something bad to undocumented immigrants and used the American flag to promote their bad behavior. Nobody would propose banning the American flag. They'd know that the majority of American don't believe the American flag stands for hurting others. Yet we're punishing Dukes of Hazzard fans for the act of one horrible person who does NOT represent the south and certainly does not represent our favorite show. What percentage of people have to be offended before something is banned?George Washington owned slaves. Should we take him off the dollar bill and quarter as some are proposing?Symbols and words change their meaning. To most people the Confederate Flag stands for the good things the folks of Hazzard believe in. Letting bad people influence us to the point that we silence and vilify good folks is not the answer.

Hobie Hartkins Posted June 25, 2015 Report Share Posted June 25, 2015 Some people aren't happy unless they're trying to stir something up! ( I know....i'm married to one!) These people aren't happy unless they have something going, something stirred up! They hate peace and won't settle for keeping things calm!
