Answer 1

I personally dont think its racist. thats probably the most patriotic song ive seen lyrics too. But i think some overy politically correct NBC a******s said that its makin references to Arabs. you shouldn't listen to those people. all that comes out of there mouths is c**p

Answer 2

Racist to who? I think he is speaking about the civil war fighting the British...I really dont know though.

Answer 3

Doesn't seem racist to me, but who accused it of being so?

Answer 4

Thats a good question Maybe they think that he is saying that people could mistake a flag for a rag and the people who think it is racist think that it is not possible. I don't know I would like to know too.

Answer 5
