My president, Jefferson Davis,

CSA, once said, "I make no terms. I accept no compromise." These

are the words I have lived since joining the fight to preserve my Confederate

and Southern heritage.

I have spoken to anyone who

would listen. I have taught high schoolers in the schools that would have

me. I have submitted articles to news agencies to publish. I have marched

in Confederate flag rallies in three states. I proudly display Confederate

emblems on my vehicle. I have sold and donated Confederate bumper stickers

to those who would display them. I have flagged every elected official

at the state Capitol crossing the street from the legislative building.

All this I have done is only

a drop in the bucket to my fellow compatriots in the Sons of Confederate

Veterans, League of the South and Southern Party of Georgia.

More than this has been accomplished

our articles, despite public schools refusing us entry, despite TV propaganda,

despite the politicians, despite some law enforcement agencies, despite

the lies of the NAACP, despite the outside agitators, despite non-Georgians

and despite mediocrity.

We will put our flag back up

despite Mr. Ryder's article, the current crop of politicians, the socialist

public school system, the Marxist news media and all other who would lie

about us to promote their own agendas. This will be done even if the fight

has to pass to our children and grandchildren.

Mr. Ryder, I would ask you

to join us in the trenches but I believe you are more of a history bluff

than a history buff. You being a pilot will understand when I say there

is an airline ready when you are.

For those of you who understand

this is a fight not about a piece of cloth but a fight for freedom, we

still have room for those with courage.
