As long as its on private property they can fly the flag which defended the right to own slaves....see the confederate constitution.

Still confederate bashing like the rest of your liberal friends huh?

...the flag which defended the right to own slaves....see the confederate constitution.

That description also fits the American flag. See the American Constitution.

RginTn,

Also see the u.s. constitution.

Primary causes of the War Between the States were:

1) excessive taxation by the North on the South.
2) unequal representation imposed by the North on the South.

If slavery was the primary cause, then why did the emancipation proclamation come far —later— than the start of the war?

If slavery was the primary cause then the timeline would’ve been :

Northern states via the Congress say: “
OK, slaves are freed, no more slavery, and this applies to —all— the states”

Southern states say to Congress:
“No way; we’re keeping our slaves; we’re seceding over this issue “

Trouble is, it didn’t happen that way.
