Its a nice flag and its part of American history.
As long as it isn’t used in a racist connotation, its fine.
Its worth pointing out, however, that the Confederate Battle Flag had a squarer shape and the rectangle, was, i believe, used on naval vessels.
Personally, I like the Stars and Bars and the Bonnie Blue Flag myself.
Got news for you pal, Whatever a black person thinks is racist, its racist. Thats why I say phuk em! I'm not going to let some moron determine what is or isn't history in their bigoted delusions!
I don't like the Battle Flags connections with racist activities, however, I don't believe that we should put restrictions such as that on freedom of speech.
For instance, the KKK flew the Stars and Stripes in a march on DC. Should the Stars and Stripes be forbidden for use by 'hate groups'?
