Monday is Confederate Memorial Day. Why does MS still celebrate it and what does it mean?

Only the uppity ones get that treatment.

I’d imagine you’d be flayed and sold as a field nigger.

And I'd imagine Massa would have had you strangled at birth, chopped up and fed to the bloodhounds and sold your Mama for a significant discount down the river to a third class brothel catering to the indigent blind as the only practical returns he'd ever realise from such worthless chattel property.

What else could he do with a profoundly retarded coon baby and your ugly and fat nigger bitch mother who ate more than three of his biggest buck field hands combined, yet was too stupid and lazy to be whipped into ever picking a single bale of cotton? Who despite once for a half-eaten corn cob gratefully spreading her legs to all the nigger gangs assigned to pick the Eastern fields now appeared to be able to only spawn abominations like yourself as breeding stock?

I'd further imagine your supposed father probably advocated something broadly similar in more recent times for broadly similar reasons.

And so it begins..
its called "Honoring the fallen", you fucking dolt. you say "the dead" .
thats what the fuck memorial day is,just the same.
theres no fight in honor dickhead.
but you probably never served, so you wouldnt know.
" theres no fight in honor" WTF does that mean dickhead.
I can say for certain that I have more respect for those who served than your Orange wanna be Ruler. You know, Mr bone spur.

The saying "tomato tomato" is an idiom used to indicate that a difference in pronunciation or spelling is insignificant and does not change the meaning or essence of something. It's often used to dismiss a correction, implying that the corrected version is just a variation of the original, not a fundamentally different idea. In other words, it emphasizes that the two things are essentially the same,
so fuck off Mr corrections.


I know you walk around with a pole up your ass. Try pulling it out every now and then. Until then be careful sitting.
 
Dammit, why was this garbage post renewed?

It doesn't matter what cause a man died for. There's nothing more honorable than to give one's life in the defense of their beliefs, whether those beliefs are honorable or not. It's all a matter of perspective.

Full article from Clarion Ledger/Google News Feed:

Mississippi will celebrate Confederate Memorial Day soon. Only four states still honor the Civil War dead with a day off for public workers, though others still treat it as a holiday.

The Magnolia State takes it a step further and celebrates April as Confederate Heritage Month. Gov. Tate Reeves signed a proclamation on April 17, noting the war started this month in 1861. It was the deadliest conflict fought in the nation.

"Whereas, as we honor all who lost their lives in this war, it is important for all Americans to reflect upon our nation's past, to gain insight from our mistakes and successes, and to come to a full understanding that the lessons learned yesterday will carry us through tomorrow if we carefully and earnestly strive to understand and appreciate our heritage and our opportunities which lie before us," the proclamation reads.

Here's what you need to know about Confederate Memorial Day, when Mississippi celebrates, attempts to drop the holiday from the calendar and what other Confederate holidays the state celebrates.

What is Confederate Memorial Day?

Confederate Memorial Day was created in Georgia on April 26, 1866. It honored the deaths of Confederate soldiers on the first anniversary of the day that Confederate Gen. Joseph Johnston surrendered the Army of Tennessee to Union Gen. William Sherman at Bennett Place, North Carolina.

Many in the Confederacy felt that negotiation marked the end of the Civil War. Gen. Robert E. Lee had surrendered the Army of Northern Virginia to Gen. Ulysses S. Grant two weeks earlier at Appomattox Court House, but Johnston stayed in the field with almost 90,000 soldiers.

The holiday spread to the other Confederate states. Some changed their celebration dates to something more locally significant.

When does Mississippi celebrate Confederate Memorial Day in 2025?

Public workers will get a state holiday on Monday, April 28.

Which states still honor Confederate Memorial Day? Are they all holidays?

Confederate Memorial Day is still celebrated across the South, though not all places treat it officially and give state workers the day off.

In Mississippi, it's an official state holiday on the last Monday in April.

In Alabama and Florida, it's on the fourth Monday in April. Alabama treats it as an official holiday.

Texas celebrates it as a state holiday on Jan. 19.

North and South Carolina celebrate on May 10, but state offices close only in South Carolina.



June 3 is when Kentucky and Tennessee honor the dead from the Civil War, and Tennessee calls it Confederate Decoration Day.

Does anyone want Mississippi to drop Confederate Memorial Day?

Yes. A bill to stop celebrating Confederate Memorial Day and designate June 19 as a Juneteenth Freedom Day died in committee in the 2025 legislative session. It was brought by state Sen. Derrick T. Simmons, District 12.



Simmons has introduced a bill to remove the Confederate holiday almost every year he's been in office. Last year, he said he's been hopeful the state is ready to make the change since lawmakers changed the state flag in 2020. The Confederate battle flag was replaced by a magnolia design with the words "In God We Trust."

What other Confederate holidays are still celebrated in Mississippi?

When a federal holiday honoring Martin Luther King Jr. was adopted in the 1980s, Mississippi and Alabama lawmakers opted to add it to an existing holiday honoring Lee. Many states in the South initially adopted this approach. Most, including Lee's home state of Virginia, have since dropped celebrating Lee, who was born on Jan. 19, 1807.

Attempts to separate the holidays through legislation have failed in committee. Mississippi State Rep. Kabir Karriem, D-Columbus, introduced bills in 2023, 2024 and 2025.

The only other state celebrating Robert E. Lee Day and King together is Alabama. Similar bills to separate the celebration of Lee or strike it from the state holiday calendar completely have also failed to pass.

Alabama also has a state holiday for Confederate President Jefferson Davis on the first Monday in June, but Mississippi pairs it with Memorial Day on the last Monday in May. (He was born June 3, 1808.)

Does anyone honestly give a fuck?
 

Grand Mal Caesar

Retards... Shut the fuck up!
No im not a “troll” I belive in what I say. I don’t care if the majority is with me are not. Unlike you I don’t pay attention to that because it’s meaningless bullshit and isn’t even the beginning of an argument.

You are fucking punk that tries to get people to not engage with me because you don’t like someone outside your cult making good arguments and points. You want to keep your fellow cult member in the cult and argument and reason is dangerous to people like you. All you have is to dismiss me as a troll.

Father Corpse and everyone else can decide whether they want to have a conversation or argument with me. They can decide if i am sincere or not. Grow up or fuck off
Fuck off. You're a contrarian troll. No sane person is 100% against logic and common sense. If you are seriously not a troll then you are a retarded lunatic.

And so it begins..
we know. I wish I had the same ability but I'm too anal retentive.

Dammit, why was this garbage post renewed?

You hold that same opinion for suicide bombers
 

Solomon Kane

And so it begins..
Sure! That's still dying for a cause, right? Look at the Japanese Kamikaze. In their culture, it's an honorable act to sacrifice one's life for the cause. I think that's true of almost any rational person on the planet. Would you sacrifice your life for your family? I would. It's the same thing.
Nope, honor is the badge.
Intentionally killing innocent people is a crime and deserves no recognition just prison.
 

Solomon Kane

And so it begins..
Okay, now wait a second..You're engaging in doublespeak. Your argument is entirely dependent upon your definition of "innocent".

If the people I'm killing are my sworn enemy, then they're not so innocent, are they?
Not if they are military. Any soldier that shoots an 80 year old lady scrounging for food scraps is not deserving of any recognition.
