Time to ditch the stars and stripes aswell while your at it.. All that slavery and indian genocide were done under that flag aswell...

*getting into cover now...

oh and red white red was never the color of the Empire, it was black and yellow at that time..

GenjiKilpatricksays...

In all seriousness.. this.

We should totally draft a new flag. Change the name of the country.

And start trying to make up for all the awful shit that's been done.

Why not keep it and repair the underlying problem instead of pretending a new flag would be a new start?

Because, it would be. Like hitting the reset button.

Symbols have deep meaning like that.

Hence why this topic is so divisive.

The name Rome and Greece must be changed, because those symbols (names are symbols) are offensive...so must Egypt, Russia, pretty much every country in the world. Native Americans need to get rid of their symbols as well--all that scalping and such...Lets not even talk about anything related to men--who have been nothing but rapist control freaks, especially in places like India where women are burned alive with their husbands...God, we have a lot of symbols to kill bud--nearly every symbol made by humans...

@Lawdeedaw are you trying to make a point? or just being a dickhead?

Should I list a bunch of names that have been changed for precisely those reasons?

You mentioned Russia.. as in USSR Eastern Bloc Russia.. so.. yeah.

Pointlessly snarky much?
