The Dukes of Hazzard “General Lee” Dodge Charger replica was featured at a heritage festival in Scarborough, just a stone's throw away from Canada's largest city (Toronto).
It was (of course) the Confederate flag designs that brought on the rant.
Scarborough resident Ybia Anderson, herself a volunteer involved in putting on the community event, "lost it" at the sight of the flag designs.

Shortly after noon on Saturday, June 17, Scarborough resident Ybia Anderson posted a video of a confrontation between herself, a volunteer with the 32nd annual Highland Creek Heritage Festival, and a friend of the vehicle’s owner. The muscle car, which appeared to be a replica of the car from The Dukes of Hazzard television series, had the flag featured on its license plate and on its roof.
Anderson had brought her three-year-old son to the community event at Old Kingston and Morrish roads. It was the first time she’d attended the street festival.
“I was in shock at first (when I saw that vehicle). My heart started beating,” Anderson told the Scarborough Mirror. In the video she expressed outrage that such a vehicle would be allowed to be part of the festival and demanded that it be immediately removed.
Ive seen that particular car, its in pristine condition except for the inside of the trunk lid. Thats where all the actors from the show signed it.
As for the rest of it.... Meh, its Tarranna. Just nuke the liberalist politically-correct **** hole off the planet. Its the only cure.
True story, my last Sierra had a reb flag front licence plate and I ended up at Jane and Finch (think Oakland or Detroit and you get the idea) in 2013. I got away with it but just barely.
She is Canadian... It would not surprise me if her ancestors fled to Canada to avoid the Civil War.
Speaking of Canada, does she have the same reaction to the Union Jack of her English Commonwealth? She needs to look up the history of the UK and it's colonies. They brutalized the Africans, Indians and Chinese. England was literally a narco state pushing opium in China.
If was the owner of that car, and I've always wanted one done in the General Lee, I would have played the Dixie horns the whole time she was trying to talk until the battery ran down.
No liberals are just plain dumb. They think theyre special and the world should be full of things that make them happy. Free speech is just that, u can say whatever u want. If u dont like the rebel flag, dont look at it. I love that car and the show- used to jump the hell outta my first few cars
Wonder if there would be any outrage if I showed up at a car show with a pirate flag painted on it. We know a Mercedes with a swastika wouldnt fly. Sometimes I just feel like prodding these liberal minded people into being fools. I was at an airshow that had WWII Nazi and Japanese fighters on display and saw no kind of hostility towards them. People just need to get a life.

I see swastikas and rebel flags on bikes and tattoos, and you know what? No one tries to start crap with them. I wonder why that is.....
The point is that the guy who owns a General Lee replica is probably not a racist, but the guys I mentioned are almost certainly aggressively racist. The lefties choose to attack the car collector because to attack the 1%ers would not make them "feel good". The lefties should re-examine their motivation.

LOL, good idea. I have said I hate the flag for what it represents "rebellion" BUT nutjobs like this lady make me want to own a car like that WITH the Dixie horns.

Bingo.
When I talked to the guy in Hamilton, he is just a regular guy with an icon of entertainment history (and having a good time with it). Not one damn thing racist or political about it until the lefties turned it into that.....
The show in Toronto must have been next door to a snowflake pep rally...

Somewhat ? Now, you are likely right but we don't know it. What we do know is that they are not shouting that down. They also cheer on Planned Parfenthood, which was founded by that Sanger biatch with the express agenda to eradicate minorities. That Sanger biatch recently got a display in the Smithsonian Institution.
