I find that pathetic & stupid beyond belief. The photo of the guy who carried out the recent massacre showed him (iirc) with a gun and a confederate flag.
The U.S. politicians apparently cant do a thing about the guns so they have manipulated attention towards the flag, and the sheep are falling for it.  ::)
The Confederate flag has many more historic connotations than simply racism / white supremacy etc. It shouldn't be taking the blame for Americas gun problems.

Quite, and if you think about the high values of Classic cars nowadays, ONLY £2.5M for a Spitfire would seem a bargain. I bet it goes for a lot more

Always liked the "general Lee" shape of charger and I'd love one but far preferred the scheme of the baddies car in Bullitt to general Lee.

They could change it to the swastika, or the deaths head cross bones,with two flashes. Or might that be controversial.
