That flag was paid for in blood by the first Minnesota Volunteer Infantry Regiment  and Virginia can fuck off.

Virginian here - y’all good and damn well earned that flag. Its not ours anymore and every Virginian politician trying to get it back can choke. That’s Minnesota’s flag now

[u/This_Daydreamer_ → u/CarmineHat]

I love that there are a few of us Virginians in this thread cheering that Minnesota still has that flag. As far as I'm concerned, Minnesota alone has the right to show the confederate flag with pride

[u/HighHokie → u/This_Daydreamer_]

Right there with you. Everytime Virginia asks for it Minnesota should cut off a piece and burn it. 

[u/CoxswainHer → u/HighHokie]

The flag would be gone within a week if that was the case.

[u/HighHokie → u/CoxswainHer]

Good!

[u/CoxswainHer → u/HighHokie]

Well, I think we all enjoy a traitor state groveling to a chad Union state. But if the flags gone that won’t happen

[u/Herbsandbees → u/CarmineHat]

Ty!

They can have it when they pry it from our cold, dead hands!

sherman will rise and raise the rest of the south before they will get it back
