[jeffh335577]

U girls r awesome and hot THE SOUTH WILL RISE AGAIN

[akgreve91stars]

well sorry girls but i cant help it when the reb flags tattood on me pemenantly. get used to it.

[imaStonesFan]

Thumbs Down!!!

[verts79]

this is truly a sad video. it is a representation of the continued lack of education shown by today's youth. these girls probably can't name 2 confederate states, any civil war generals, be it South or north or any other relevant fact in american history.

[Back2Dixie]

Ladies there is alot more of those flags from coast to coast . Im in California and my neighbor up the block has a hugh one hanging in his Garage and I have one on my wall in my home office. Like myself he is the great great Grandson of Confederate Soldiers and like it or not, they are the reason we breath and I refuse to dishonor their momories. Deo Vindice !!! The South is Rising while the North is failing with crime and welfare.

[CymHastings]

@Back2Dixie You've apparently never been to the hills of Appalachia where the great grandchildren of Confederates run meth labs throughout the countryside and 50%+ of the population receives some form of government assistance. The South is no better and no worse than the rest of the nation.

[DoNotTreadOnME2012]

Andrew Napolitano who went to Princeton and law school at Notre Dame, and was an actual judge in New Jersey, believes nullification is Constitutional. I think he knows what he's talking about. /watch?v=R9cyGproZGQ

[DoNotTreadOnME2012]

Hey girls thanks for the support of the Confederate flag a true symbol against tyranny. I love all anti-tyranny flags from the Betsy Ross 13 star flag, the 15 starred-Fort McHenry Star Spangled Banner, to the Gadsden-Don't Tread on Me flag! All beautifully and artfully crafted. Anyone who degrades these flags all I can say is, lets see you design something better!

[PriestChristopher]

More than likely, the flag is resting on private property. Probably some pro-Confederate organization bought the patch of land and because they own it and pay taxes on it, they can fly the flag on it. It's more than likely private land and has nothing to do with state or government ownership. I agree, the South needs to let go of the Civil War! Geessh! I used to be a hard core Confederate, until I became educated lol.

[spaghetticat3]

well actually not to get technical the flag you saw was the battle flag of northern virginia(i would know, i see it everytime i go to mongomery because i live in birmingham) and the real confederate flag is the stars and bars

[lightningman01]

This is cool,because i thought when i lived in Califuckedornia when i saw a rebel flag along a major freeway, i about shot a load im my pants!!!!!!

[jstrickmma]

someone alert the president!!!!!  u saw a rebel flag in alabama?????? no way.....dumb ass.

[RandomReviewTeam]

@jstrickmma You got the video all wrong, she was talking good about the confederate flag. WeWt SoUtHeRn PrIdE!!! :)

[Xyinc]

Live typo

[Xyinc]

You stupid ugly ass sluts will burn in hell and on your way to your grave do a favor for the world and kill yourself and the ignorant life you life

[theskiesbelowme]

Shouldn't you be concentrating on...driving?

[SuperChuck79]

stupid bitchs

[usernametakenasusual]

I think I passed that same flag. I was on my way to Florida from Russelville, Alabama.

[crackerHero]

THE south is rising

[Zeeboe]

Smart girls. :-) Fuck all you computer nerd rebel trash insulting them. I'm from the south and I agree, some areas in the south are 100 years behind the times.

[Smertrios0]

God bless the south!

[XpressForumsClick]

this video would be waaaaay cooler if you were topless.

But i like what you had to say!

Just some helpful advice!

[BigFootIsABum]

Wow these two girls are ugly as shit and apparently dumb as hell both are in a moving car talking about an flag and the driver is talking into the camera. WREAK!!!!!!!!!!! its because dumb hos like you why innocent people die in car accidents.

[mongo5888]

You SHOULD be proud of that flag. You apparently have no pride in your ancestors and no thanks for the men that died to save your way of life and fought for what they believed in:freedom for the South.

[TheSatchnell]

If you don't like Alabama or The South, why in the hell are you passing through?? I don't like the north, but I don't go up there bitching!!!

[mongo5888]

@TheSatchnell That was my point. These girls are pathetic.

[johnnyREBELwallace]

rediculous.

[TennRebel19]

I'm glad that you enjoyed seeing the flag, but I would like to say that we don't the war of 150 years ago dear. We hold the principles, ideals, and memories of our Confederate ancestors, and those of the Founders and Framers of the US government, dear to our hearts. If people today had the courage and fortitude of our Confederate ancestors, our Federal government might not be so out of control. I encourage you and all young people to study the history of the war and its causes.

[blfine1]

I am glad you enjoy seeing our Flag and you are welcome back down south anytime you please.....just do me a favor and google the Jamica and Scotland Flag....for like our confederate flag it is the St. Andrews cross....

[bluegrassreb]

come on ladies!!

you are being so pc.

bama is the SOUTH.

DIXIE still lives there. 150 years makes a differance?

oh joy... not only in bama but in every Southern state you will find the Rebel battle flag. Tennessee, Kentucky, GA,Maryland,Miss,Louisanna, Texas, Missouri, Florida, N.c., S.C. ect.

Love your SOUTHERN accent by the way!

[PrinceLordChris]

You cannot say you love the south and hate the southern flag. It's so unfortunate that you beautiful ladies have no idea of the true history of that flag and those southern soldiers. They died to protect you from a ruthless invader, so honor them.

[CymHastings]

@PrinceLordChris That "ruthless invader" was the Federal government of the United States with each and every state in the rebellion had originally joined of their own free will. The rebellious state of the Confederacy choose to actively ignore and abandon the very laws they had helped to write as part of the national government in DC. They failed to understand that when they joined the US, they were subject to a higher authority. Simply, the South rebelled because they didn't get their way.

[DoNotTreadOnME2012]

@CymHastings Actually since states are free to join the US, and preventing states from voluntarily leaving is not one of Congress' enumerated powers, then the states were actually free to leave. Since Lincoln considered those states still part of the US, waging war against another part of the United States was actually treason and insurrection. Constitutionally the South was on the right side of the law while Lincoln violated it (in numerous ways).

[CymHastings]

@DoNotTreadOnME2012 This has nothing to do with Congress' powers. The Constitution quite simply does NOT provide a means for leaving the Republic. Indeed, after the war, the Supreme Court ruled in Texas v White the unilateral secession was unconstitutional; only through revolution or mutual consent of the several states could it be permitted according to the court. It was Lincoln's duty (not treason) to put down an open rebellion. You have a very skewed and incorrect view on constitutional law.

[DoNotTreadOnME2012]

@CymHastings actually it has everything to do with Congress' powers. The fed gov only has the enumerated powers listed in the Constitution, and since nothing prevents states from leaving they are free to do so. In Texas v White, the Supreme Court is indeed wrong as it has been in numerous other cases. Nullification and secession where supposed to be the final check on the fed gov in case all 3 branches got it wrong. The 13 states would not have ratified the Constitution if they couldn't leave.

[CymHastings]

@DoNotTreadOnME2012 Could you please demonstrate where in the US Constitution it speaks of nullification or secession? Could you please demonstrate where in any of the documents relating to a state's admittance to the Union that it speaks of nullification or secession? The fact of the matter is that the Supreme Court, not you, interprets the US Constitution and those laws derived from it; and the SCOTUS has ruled that nullification and secession are both non-Constitutional.

[DoNotTreadOnME2012]

@CymHastings you must not understand the Constitution right? Congress has 18 enumerated powers, preventing a state is not one of them. There are powers prohibited to states, withdrawing from the Union is not one of them. The 10th amendment says The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people. The power to leave is preserved, and why what the South did was legal and Lincoln was not.

[CymHastings]

@DoNotTreadOnME2012 I'm a political science major. I've worked for the US House of Representatives. I've spent countless hours studying and writing on constitutional law. However, I am not important. The Supreme Court of the United State and history have determined that your *opinions* are incorrect. YOU are not the law. YOU do no define or interpret it. Unilateral secession is extraconstitutional and therefore illegal. You need to just settle into the idea that the South lost.

[DoNotTreadOnME2012]

@CymHastings I'm glad you mentioned working for the US HR, the political infrastructure in DC is part of the problem. You just don't understand the 10th Amendment. States CAN do things that are extra-Constitutional, while the federal government cannot. States did have the right to secede, while Lincoln had no right to unilaterally invade and make war on a group of states. I understand the role of the SCOTUS, but that's why we need an extra check and balance with nullification and secession.

[CymHastings]

@DoNotTreadOnME2012 So the constitutionally-mandated House is "part of the problem"? It sounds to me like you want to do away with the very document which created this nation and build, instead, an anarchy. As much as you claim that I do not understand Amendment X, I find it laughable that you ignore the Supremacy Clause of the Constitution itself; under Supremacy Clause itself, no state is allowed to implement laws or actions that are counter to the federal constitution or its government.

[DoNotTreadOnME2012]

@CymHastings I didn't say the House itself, I mean people like you the LIs for all the congressman, in addition to lobbyists, etc. I want to hold to the Constitution. Nullification is simply declaring a law un-Constitutional within your state. The Supreme Court gave itself the right to declare legislation un-Constitutional, so should states. The supremacy clause doesn't give the fed gov the right to make un-Constitutional laws beyond is 18 enumerated powers. Didn't you learn than in PS class?

[CymHastings]

@DoNotTreadOnME2012 "This Constitution, and the Laws of the United States which shall be made in pursuance thereof ... shall be the supreme law of the land." That seems pretty basic to me. If the writers of the Constitution felt the states should be empowered with the paramount rights of nullification and secession, they would be in the constitution. Even so, the Supremacy Clause gives the FED the right to strike down any state law in conflict with USCON and FED laws, not vice versa.

[DoNotTreadOnME2012]

@CymHastings Also don't you believe the SCOTUS has made wrong decisions before? Dred Scott? Plessy v Ferguson? Roe v Wade? The fact that SCOTUS is political means we need another check, and that's the states. Nullification and Secession are not prohibited in the Constitution, which under the 10th Amendment means states are free to do it. Also secession is not a rebellion, it's leaving. What Lincoln did was treason. See Article 3 section 3. War against any state is treason.

[CymHastings]

@DoNotTreadOnME2012 I did not say SCOTUS was infalliable, however, it is only a future SCOTUS than can overturn the bad rulings of a previous SCOTUS. Some yahoo YouTube commenter does not have the ability to arbitrarily do away with 200+ years of laws, rulings and precedent because it does not jive with his personal interpretation. And AGAIN, secession, which is not constitutionally permitted, IS rebellion.

[DoNotTreadOnME2012]

@CymHastings So are you saying that if all 3 branches of the fed gov get it wrong, states have NO recourse except hoping for SC justices to die? If you look at what Jefferson, Samuel Adams, etc. said states would not have agreed to this. Secession and nullification are not prohibited by the Constitution. The 10th Amendment says powers such as these "...are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people." This is the ultimate check and balance on the fed gov. Lee was right, Lincoln wasn't.

[CymHastings]

@DoNotTreadOnME2012 I'm saying that if someone doesn't agree with all three branches of the Federal government, then it's probably not the Federal government that is wrong. The writings of Jefferson, S. Adams et al, while influential, are NOT law. Furthermore, Amendment X gives states the powers to legislate in matters not given to the Federal government (policing, etc); it does NOT give them the ability to create new rights that supersede the supremacy of the USCON and its government.

[DoNotTreadOnME2012]

@CymHastings So you don't believe all three branches of the fed gov can be wrong? Either way what I'm saying is not that states can make new rights, but they can rescind their ratification off the Constitution just as they have (legally upheld) with amendments. Just like the SCOTUS gave itself the right to declare legislation un-Constitutional, states have the right to do this unilaterally within their own borders, or the whole US with a majority of states. If all else fails then secession!

[CymHastings]

@DoNotTreadOnME2012 Define "wrong". The very mission of SCOTUS is to define right and wrong as per the Constitution. Again, SCOTUS is a constitutional body; you and those who support your radical theories on nullification are not. The Constitution clearly delineates how a state can join the union; it says nothing about secession. It clearly describes the process to amendment the USCON; it says nothing about nullification. I think the intent of the founders is quite clear.

[Back2Dixie]

@CymHastings Are you serious ???? Have you been in the same World with the rest of us ? The Federal Government has reached all time corruption and has breached the Constitution on many levels !!! The Federal Gov. is dead wrong and so are you.

[CymHastings]

@Back2Dixie Government corruption has existed since the beginning of the Republic; it only seems worse now because technology and government accountability and open records laws give the People (usually via the press) the ability to look inside the innerworkings of Congress, etc. Next, I would challenge you to cite just one "breach" of the Constitution at any "level".

[DoNotTreadOnME2012]

@CymHastings Also, under the Constitution, Congress has no power to invade or make war against any states. Lincoln considered the South part of the United States, which makes invading, attacking, and destroying those states treasonous and an act of insurrection against those states. I'm not saying what John Wilkes Booth did was right, but when you play with fire to tend to get burned. Lincoln had the blood of 160,000 thousand dead Americans on his hands, while Booth only had 1.

[CymHastings]

@DoNotTreadOnME2012 The constitution provides that the President shall lead the military and "take care that the laws be faithfully executed". Therefore, a state or states in open rebellion are subject to intervention by the US military under the authority of the commander-in-chief. Much like Washington led troops against those of the Whiskey Rebellion, Lincoln had a constitutional obligation to make the integrity of and order within the Republic. It was not war; it was suppression of rebellion.

[539strt]

Not being derogatory but, if you go up North you may be surprised at how many you see flying.

[batesville2]

hell ya, for the rebels up north

[73828]

Not only up north but my being a truck driver i've been to Canada and I also saw quit a few Confederate flags up there to. God save the South!!

[StGeorgeBush]

You see the confederate flag in Canada because Canada was a Southern allie. I am Canadian and have a Confederate flag flying in my yard. God bless the South!

[XpressForumsClick]

@StGeorgeBush On what planet is that true? That's effing ridiculous!

[StGeorgeBush]

@XpressForumsClick No it is true, before Lincon made the war about slavery and tricked Europe Britain helped the South in battles to get back at the North for attacks on "British North America" (Canada).

Britain was Canada at that time so near all of the troops that helped the South were from Upper Canada (Ontario)

[XpressForumsClick]

@StGeorgeBush Yeah, i live in Canada, too, and I've never seen a rebel/confederate flag displayed here, patriotically or otherwise.

I've also lived in the South for many years, and i know that very few Canadians have any sympathy, or even knowledge of the South.

Why would someone from Canada say "God Bless the South"? That's so absurdly illogical it baffles the mind. What part of Southern Heritage are you blessing? The slavery, the poverty, the bare feet and ignorance?

[magpiemaniac]

Apparently, these young ladies failed history class.

[theamazingkate11]

lmfao. Actually, I took every single history class offered at my high school, and aced all of them. I adore history, and I'm not exactly sure what, in this video, would make you think I am in any way inept when it comes to history... ?

[bassdrumguitarplayer]

oh god. dont listen to public school history lessons. its all liberal lies. go do your own history or ask a living historian at a reenactment. you may think were bunch oh hicks but were more educated than most history teachers out there. believe me. you will learn soooo much mooooore. and this isnt just for you its foreverybody within earshot

[XpressForumsClick]

@magpiemaniac Apparently, you learned 'history' in South Carolina.

[todddoom]

@magpiemaniac No you failed history. Lincoln said over and over, as long as the taxes are collected there will be no invasion. Lincoln also said his objection was to preserve the union NOT to end slavery. So Magpiemaniac YOU failed history class. Now go hide your head in shame.

[rockandroll1110]

I love Alabama,and Confederate flags! You two were seriously suprised to see a Confederate flag IN ALABAMA??? lol

[REBEL2250]

seriously?!?

your driving through alabama and your surprised to see a confederate flag? wow lol

[rippetoe69]

im a bit confused. im from central California. my dad and mom were born in California. but every one else in my family came from the south,Oklahoma,Texas, and Missouri.22 men on my dads side fought for the south,13 men on my moms side fought for the south. i have a huge confederate flag in my living room. are you trying to say that there is something wrong with this flag? because i would die for this flag and what it represents. i have shot "at" people who try to take it down.

[fuckingshot]

Im Rebel Born rebel bred and when i die ill die a rebel dead

[uman184]

so there all over my town and there is one in front of my school

[theamazingkate11]

there's one in front of mine as well. <3.

[beardedboy303]

wtf... "oh golly gee I was driving threw the south when all of a suden... a confedrate flag was on a flag pole O_O... crazy right???"

[woody71130]

Im makin a road trip down there just ta see it someday!

[darthroden]

Well the reason is probably because fewer people would complain about flying it there, or maybe because it marks a historical site that has something to do with the war itself, or maybe there is a cemetery there.

Hope you loved Thanksgiving and wish I could have been there to enjoy that glorious sight with you two lovely ladies.

[sYsTeMoFaDoWnRuLeZ12]

you both blow cock... alot

[sierra8728]

Kate thanks for the fun videos, why none lately, how was T-giving ?

[theamazingkate11]

Really?! that's so awesome. :).

It was really beautiful, there's a hugeeee confederate flag about 15 minutes from my house, but the area is heavily populated.

It was just so random to an outsider, it seriously looked like there was nothing for milessss and then someone was like "I think I'll put a lag here." haha.

Alabama is gorgeous. :)

xo

[budboy1988]

haha yall were only a few minutes away from my house when yall saw the flag

[IceXMan789]

White people

[803honda]

the confederate government never officially surrendered so technically the war is not over. there are still many many folks out there workin hard to get our independance back!!!

That huge flag on da interstate is a glorious reminder that the war is not over and occupied or not, this is still Dixie.

I wish there was 1 every 10 miles. we have one 50' x 30' here in middle of town and folks say its the first thing you see from planes commin to the airport :)

[theamazingkate11]

THIS IS A JOKEEEE.

For the record: I know my history as I was a history major for quite some time. IN FACT: I had family ONLY on the south side. I have records of my g-g-g-g-g- grandfather who was one of the 65 survivors of the ENTIRE Florida infantry in which he was general, and records of how his home was raided and burned to the ground by "yankees".

If you know me at all, you know that THIS IS A JOKE.

Calm down.

Get your panties out of a bundle and try to laugh for a change.

[ColtCameron]

...I fly both the Confederate & US Flag and will not apologize for it. I am proud to have relatives who fought on both sides. You two need history lessons..

[sexyredneckbabe01]

i love it.. lol you make me happy!!!!!!!=]

[theamazingkate11]

haha, I'm so glad!

I'm glad you share in my sense of humor as well, as it's obvious many do not. haha.

God Bless!

[sexyredneckbabe01]

haha yea thats true. lol =]

[sparkywundermutt]

Well, you ARE in the South. What did you expect?

[douglas785]

i agree.i support the confederate flag.i see some fly at on truck and house here in oklahoma.God Bless.

[theamazingkate11]

God Bless!

[southernman516]

you just need to understand they are just perserving there heritage.just like i do i fly a confederate flag. cause it is my heritage. not cause i want to hold onto a war but it is my heritage and it deserves to be honard. i live in birmingham alabama. and am am from it. i am proud to be from the heart of dixie. and am proud to be from the south. and love my southern homeland. Deo Vindice.

[theamazingkate11]

oh honey, don't get me wrong. I have massive amounts of southern pride. It was just so... stereotypical. That's all. haha.

[CymHastings]

@southernman516 And what heritage is that? Can you actually articulate what the Confederate flag represents in real, meaningful dialogue, or are you continue to speak in vague abstracts that no-one understands?
