the rebel flag is illegal in many states, as it is sign of racism/bigotry. brett attempted to sign me up without asking me, and i do not wish to participate in this racist and bigoted tournament. furthermore, colton should be dealt with in C&A for this, because it is a clear violation of the bigotry guidelines. this thread/tournament was made out of ignorance for the feelings of others and the historical significance of the confederate flag. this should be dealt with immediately-0
p.s.-way to go colton, enjoy my foe list. first ever to make it.

and this is based on what? who did you contact to verify this does not violate the bigotry guidelines? it is a KNOWN FACT that you believe racism does not exist, NS. you feel it is in the mind of the offended. i would suggest you step back and contact andy to make sure this is correct, because your inability to be objective on anything dealing with bigotry or racism is apparent. wonder why you vanished out of the bigotry guideline thread? your obtuse and linear thinking, paired with your lack of real world knowledge is glaringly obvious in matters that deal with bigotry and racism. again, i have a huge problem with this... and i feel it should at least be addressed. if i need to go to C&A, so be it. but you can not dismiss a valid concern from a member of the community based on your personal feeling that racism/bigotry does not exist.-0
p.s.-the civil war map is HISTORICAL. the confederate flag is fine on that map, since you asked in a PM to me in which you told me to "get over it."

This tournament is based on a historical event, so using your own standards, it's not bigoted. If you don't like the tournament, then don't join it. You don't have to make this another crusade.

really? what part of "may the south rise again" is historical? your ignorance is laughable. but then again, you have made it clear you speak for team CC and i need to move along. this is going to be interesting. a mod that had declared that racism/bigotry does not exist and is in the mind of the offended, has declared a tournament with the tag line "may the south rise again" as being historical. wow... can you please direct me to the historical documentation where the south rose again, NS? you should leave this to someone objective to decide, and we both know that you are not that person.-0

Ummmm.....????? Could you please tell me which states the Confederate flag is actually illegal in?? I know it was removed from state buildings but was unaware it is illegal in any state.

Dude seriously what is your problem? if you don't like it PASS IT because at this moment you are the ONLY and i repeat THE ONLY one talking about racistic and other crap things which are totally irelevant.
Coop and I want our team name ot be SLAVE owners. Owners doesn't make any sense. I seem to recall slavery was legal in the US around the time of the Civil war. I want to reflect that in my team name.
nothing wrong with a little bit of man on dog love.
owenshooter i actually saw that someone else had done it and for the love of god someone do the north already im not from the north but im a bit suprised

If this is historical the name should be allowed. "Slave owners" is in history textbooks across the country. It is not the n-word or some other derogatory slur. It simply was the way things were back then. Thomas Jefferson and George Washington were both slave owners (although they weren't around in the Civil War, obviously). PLus it is a term to describe WHITE people during the civil war, and if CC has taught me anything, it is you can say anything you want about whites, republicans or religions (as long as they are predominantly white).

this is a great name for the "south will rise again" tournament... still waiting for NS to show/tell me how "the south will rise again" is historical and not racist... he can't... he is wrong... period... and brett, "slave owners" is a great name for a team. i need to find a partner and name ourselves something like "the lynch mob", "20 lashes", "the white knights", etc... i mean, since NS has declared that there is nothing racist about the confederate flag, historical names and "the south will rise again", we might as well have fun with his laughable understanding of bigotry/racism within the historical context... nice call night strike!!! you are right, racism isn't real, it is simply in the mind of the offended!!!-0
