They're just celebrating the sacrifices made by New Jersey regiments fighting in the Confederate Army!

I saw a Blazer in Massachusetts with a Confederate flag. I dont get it, is that suposed to make them a badass or sumthin? It makes about as much sense as a Jewish guy driving around with a Swastika

There is a house in my neighborhood where the guy recently started flying the stars and bars...I might expect to see that more if I still lived down south, but I live in Southern California, so I wasn't quite expecting to see that. Pretty much have decided to keep far away from there.

I always find anyone waving these around (ESPECIALLY up here in New York) to be utterly ridiculous. It's literally the most un-American thing you can wave around.

Wouldn't Southern California secessionists fly the flag of Imperial Spain and demand people only speak Spanish?

I was struck dumb that someone thought New Jersey had anything to do with the Confederacy. I have no words...

One would think that, but logic isn't really a strong suit for people that do that.

Hell, just the other day here in B.C. Canada, I saw a riced-out Tiburon with a Confederate flag hung inside the rear window.

Yes, but Mal was a member of his universe's version of the Confederacy. Like I said, interesting choice.

My roommate is from North Carolina, and he has a Confederate flag hung up in his bedroom. That I can understand. New Jersey? Now that's a bit of a stretch.

I'm working on a genealogy project and so far I've traced my lineage back to the original British immigrant who settled in Jamestown, VA circa 1610. My family lived in the South until my grandparents moved to California when my dad was young. I appreciate and admire Southern Culture very deeply and am proud of my generations long Southern roots. The reason I say all this is to give the following statement a little more weight:
I'd never fly the Treason Flag in any form.

Here in Wisconsin I'll see the occasional stars-n-bars sticker on a vehicle. Usually a truck or SUV with various other obnoxious redneck stickers on it. I guess they just want to express themselves.

If New Jersey had originally been a part of the Confederacy, I imagine Lincoln may have seriously considered just letting them leave the Union.
Lincoln: "They'll take Jersey with them?"

This might be the best redneck sticker ever.
I think the last thing on the downward cascading pee waterfall is maybe supposed to be Mohammed?

I just posted on the Subaru tree hugging thread that it fits with an northern California vibe.. but let me make this clear for non Californians:
THIS
is alive and well here too.
It daily challenges my mental capacity to understand simultaneous diversity of world views due to the gap between peoples ideologies that seemingly live right next door to each other.
but in reality is strengthens my understanding that people live in their own self created universes regardless of their environments.
One can cope with this cognitive dissonance by thinking of how you can somewhat accurately carve political world views county to county in CA. AG counties lean one way coastal leans another,
but counties like Placer ( which spans a long strip of ground from Tahoe to Sacramento) challenges me, because my expectation that the hippies in the mountains around Auburn arent actually a reality.. its really mostly conservative isolationists living in those forests that are currently burning, and they are SQUARELY reinforced by the evangelical upper class soccer moms in the affluent foothill communities closer to Sac. so you get a county that is surprisingly conservative in a terrain (and a cultural history) that would make you think otherwise.
this kind of bizzarro thing happens all over the state. Im watching Bay Area counties closely for big reversals to happen.

I always think of san Francisco when I think of northern California, but I realize how much that changes the closer you get to the Oregon border.

I should be more mad about that than I am, being from New Jersey...I laughed too hard.

1000% true. I laugh when people say our state is a "liberal" one. Those parts of NoCal, gold country up through Redding, are some of the most conservative, red neck filled counties in the entire country, my uncle and cousins chief amount them.
And don't even get me started about Orange County.

The best part is that Bin Laden is after a manufacturer, racecar driver, and France. Your priorities are pretty fucked up to put them in that order.

There are a lot of bad stickers out there—but that is pretty epic. I am from New Jersey and someone could be seen driving a full-on General Lee Charger around, but we'll give him the benefit of the doubt and just assume he was a Dukes of Hazzard fan. In a similar Confederate vein, I note the 1968 Dodge Charger that actor Gary Dourdan (who, as you can see in the video, is black) had customized by West Coast Customs, he wanted the rebel flag on it as a General Lee tribute, but in a rare moment of good sense, they put it in the headliner of the car rather than on the outside. It's also in "African" colors, whatever that means. Only video of the episode I could find is dubbed in German, which adds to the surreal aspect.

It is the state of New Jersey outline in a condeferate flag.

There are a lot of confederate flags in BC. Usually on pickups though.
