The United States Attorney General disagrees with you.
The United States Federal Government disagrees with you.
All charges and indictments were dropped, nolle prosequi. Confederate veterans maintain veteran status and are entitled to benefits that all War Between the States veterans are allotted.

Yeah, you're the one making a bunch of heros out to be traitors!
They gave their lives for a cause they believed in. This flag (as the article shows) was made to prevent further blue on blue.
The Southern soldiers made no atempts to take and hold USA soil (exempting the capitol, which was ridiculously close to CSA boundries anyway) so claiming they were in it to "destroy America" is on par with saying "Bush lied!"
