[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I used to work in Frederick in the late 90's and I had to drive past a Confederate flag, in a yard on a flagpole everyday. This was 25 years ago but I have a feeling the attitudes are still there. Given the choice, I would go with Moco.[/quote]

There's a HUGE Trump flag and a HUGE 'women for Trump' flag at the intersection of Woodfield Rd & Fieldcrest in Gaithersburg, MD.

You guys want to judge a whole community by the presence of a few flags.  [/quote]

I think everyone knows that Frederick is notorious for their attitudes towards race. My white co-workers even called it Fredneck. Just so you know, it just wasn't a few flags. It was stickers on cars, t-shirts, tattoos. I saw the Confederate flag everywhere. After two years of that and the commute to Frederick, I was more than happy to be transferred to another office.[/quote]

Sure.  But the late 90s was 25 years ago.

MoCo used to be called the place for "rich people and rednecks" when I first moved to the DMV too in the late 90s[/quote]

Lol.  I love how within this Forum, there are people saying not to judge the community near SVHS by the gunshots and crime on a different thread, while also judging a community by the prescience of a flag 25 years ago on this thread[/quote]
