I was talking about the battle flag. I specifically referred to it by it’s nickname.
You didn’t indicate that you were not talking about the battle flag, in response to my statement about the battle flag. Why not? Poor communication skills or just trolling? To say that the battle flag is not an actual flag is misleading and untruthful.
It was a misunderstanding, not everybody knows everything. In fact, I was the wrong one, having heard the battle flag referred to as the " stars and bars" but in fact that was the name of the original flag with the 7 stars in a circle on a blue field in the upper left, with 1 white and 2 red stripes on the right. I have heard several people say shit like “salute the stars and bars!” when referring to the familiar battle flag. So til.
Still, I have seen the original Confederate flag around, but never on a government building. I have also seen the Bonnie blue flag here and there. It makes me wonder how racist and backwards you have to be to put such a symbol on the side of your barn.
Even when I was in the South, I never saw a Confederate flag. Maybe you are confusing the battle flag with the actual flag.
Oregon is far from Yankees. Outside of Portland, Eugene, Bend, this is a very rural, red state.

It’s an easy misdirect away from the actual problem. So yeah, it is absolutely misleading and untruthful.

I have never heard it called the stars and bars. Not saying you are wrong, just never heard anyone call it that.

Huh? Red states are deserts? The coast is a desert? I am not sure your statement makes any sense at all.

Read what you said again old sport. It was barely English.
The state isn’t as blue as you think. It’s a common misconception from people who don’t live here.

Why are you quoting religious demographics ?

35 vs 25. That isn’t a grand slam.
