  • Iowa was a territory. Sorry. Don't count any more than importing French.

      What about state capitals? After all, many of them have statues of people from the past.
      Battefields are historical sites, so yes.
      The statues can be kept -- they make nice places for pigeons to **** on, anyway.

      State capitals -- no, since it's treason for government institutions to display the flag of any current or former enemy.

        Shows how much you know -- Iowa was admitted as a free state in 1857, when it adopted its Constitution.

          • I misread my reference -- it stated that in 1857, Iowa adopted its current constitution.

            Yes, 1846 is the correct year of Iowa becoming a state.

                        Um, you said Iowa wasn't a state then. So you were wrong first...

                          What about capitals that have every flag in the world. Are they being treasonous because the Iraqi flag is flying with all the others?

                          Former enemy? Does this mean it is treasonous for a state capital to display a British flag with all others?

                          I think saying that flying a flag of an 'enemy' being treason is ridiculous.

                          I quote from Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary (1996): "In the United States, treason is confined to the actual levying of war against the United States, or to an adhering to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort."
                          “I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”

                          • I don't know where to post this. for some reason we don't have an Iraq war thread

                            CNN is showing interviews with the family of POW's.

                            Pure exploitation. Yet I am watching it. So what does that make me?

                                Yes it did. So might I suggest that we all get back on topic. You wouldn't want to piss off a 5 headed dragon with no chocolate in sight now would you?
