AMERICAN PRIDE, UNDER ATTACK...

[C91]

I guess I made a statement without addressing the original question.  Should the "American Owned" signs be banned?  No.  It's a free speech issue.

(Plus it makes it easier to identify racist motel owners.)

Why does that make them racist any more than putting American made on clothing or other goods made here?  Its merely advertising a fact.

I agree, that the signs should not be banned...that is absolutely wrong...But, I disagree with you on your view that it could only mean that they are raciest...and I think that is a un-called shot at republicans, you are in a sense being raciest yourself, with that statement....and believe me, I know plenty of democrat rednecks...probably more of them around than republican rednecks...imo.....

I didn't realize "Republican" was now a race.  Is that on your birth certificate?

Yeah, Henry Hawk, Republican...i was born into royalty...

maybe not raciest by meaning, but the same way as stereotyping a person and passing judgment because a screwed up belief that one may have on that group...
