Arrived in Knoxville, TN today. My other brother-in-law lives here and we're visiting before moving along to my folks in NC on Friday. It's nice to get to spend some individual time with each of my wife's brothers.
I have to say I was very offended on the way here. I think it was on I-40S or I-65S, but there was a huge rebel flag waving on the side of the road. I don't know who it belongs to, or the property for that matter. I know I'm in the south, but really? It's 2012 people, really? I know I live in the land of free speech and what not, but come on. Now this flag was large, and I'm not kidding or exaggerating, but it was near the size of the U.S. flag at Ft. McHenry. Could you see if someone tried to fly a flag of that size emblazoned with a swastika? There would be articles, newscasts, etc. This is just disgusting to me. I nearly threw up in my mouth a little driving by. I could go on and on about this, but am really just to heated about this. Shaking my head...
