As long as it isn’t used in a racist connotation, its fine.

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'?

I don’t have a problem with the Confederrate Battle Flag.
I have one and the Stars and Bars.

But since I respect it, and it is NOT a racist flag, I don’t like to see racists abusing it. It only gives radicals ammo to attack it.
