There's an antique boat style here called 'pirtuvene', literally grain alcohol boat. These boats smuggled millions of liters of pure alcohol through the gulf of Finland from Estonia. Smugglers were gunned down, coast guard were gunned down, people were drinking more booze than ever and boat builders were doing good business both with the smugglers and the cops.
When people are digging to China, sell shovels
That's fuckin wild lol
Booze, actually. But same basic concept.
Remember that Dale also did not know what the confederate flag truly meant. He just thought it was a southern thing. And the minute someone told him how offensive it was to them, he went and immediately scraped it off his truck and apologized.
Dale wasn't no damn loser traitor.
And nowadays, he'd be labeled woke and accosted by the right...

Most people back then didn't give the Confederate flag a second thought.
