It seems to me that those for whom the Confederate battle flag stands for “heritage not hate” (as one fellow who flew it in Louisiana was quotes as saying when, in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina he invited those helping with the relief effort, both black and white, to come down to his range for some AR-15 shooting), should make an effort to insist that it be used only in contexts where the intent to commemorate the valor of their forebearers is clear.
Well, when you can control what other people do, maybe you can pass on to others tips on how to get that done.
Let us know when the Westboro baptists stop using the cross and when the KKK stop using the American flag.
Not being snarky, just pointing out how some things are easier said than done.
