I think the photo clearly illustrates the view that most liberals have of gun owners, and to be honest, I'm not real fond of most folks who associate themselves with rebel flags and the like. With that said, I believe it's their right to take a pic with the flag.

agreed to an extent, but I think that's what they were going for...

Meh, kids do stupid shit. If it were a group of Hispanics holding the Mexican flag with guns we'd all think they were gang banging. That being said, this is not real news in my opinion.

1) Political correctness will a major factor in our country's down fall.

2) Social media is one of the bigger sticks that political correctness can use to beat individuals down.

3) Do not allow your kids to participate on social media without direct before posting supervision (or at all until independent as in our kids case)

4) Yeehaw

One kid said they went along with it, but knew it was wrong?? That's the real issue. People afraid to stand up and say NO. Doesn't matter what it relates to. If you feel or believe what others are doing is wrong (or disagree with) and want you to participate. Have the backbone to say no. Don't come out afterward with some lame excuse .

Not controversial at all. It's clearly shows a disregard for others by a lack of safe gun handling.

The lady in red holding the AR looks like she has her finger inside the trigger guard. You should never do that. Especially around impressionable young people.

Other than that I don't see what the problem is.

I'm always curious at people with Confederate accoutrements. More often than not, they don't hail from states that were a part of the former Confederacy. But I have a Gadsden flag, so I can't really hold that above them. However, even if they are from the former Confederate states, they were born so long after its dismantiling that it doesn't really seem to mean anything. Colonial flags, Gadsden flags, and the like represent an institution whose evolution we're all a part of. The Confederacy, like the Nazi party, is a dead institution whose flags and memorobilia don't really mean anything. What exactly are their proponents trying to represent with them?
