Simple question.[/QUO
No matter what one's opinion is now, I think this time it is really coming down. Forever. And thank, God.
Yes. It's a flag whose erection at the capitol was to be a symbol of protest against racial equality. I'm fine for those who want to recognize their southern heritage; but this flag is not an idol of that purpose. Take it down.
It was to affirm states rights. The same thing that was fought for 100 years before. And the same thing that has completely disappeared in the last few years.

Sure. In the purest context, it was to affirm the state's right to racially segregate and discriminate. Your argument is akin to claiming the ISIL banner is a banner of islam, and isn't associated with the brutal murder of thousands.It was to affirm states rights.

Regardless of what positive reasons for keeping the flag on memorials, there is no
denying that the flag as a symbol has been co-opted by hate groups and it has
become synonymous with groups with whom no reasonable person would want to
be associated. it is now time for it to go.
Perception = reality.
Simple question for those people that look for no response. Otherwise, if you wanted an honest responses from them, this would take more open minds and intelligence than exist on TI and in this country who truly listen.Simple question.
Former reenacter,SCV, ect. I'm sure my ancestors who were veterans of that terrible war would be ashamed of how the flag has been usurped in the name of racist hate. I quit the Confederate memorial parade 10 yrs. ago because the Fascist league of the south speakers made a mockery of the dead by turning a soldiers memorial into a Nuremberg type rally.Simple question.
