Its just one of many ways modern elites poke southerners in the eye.

Do you "Rebels" want an apology from the federal government and an "interpretative and contemplative" display at the Smithsonian done by revisionist, socialist, history professors to tell your side? Sure sounds like it.

Actually I would be more than satisfied with an end to the demonization of southern culture. The Saint Andrews cross is not a symbol of slavery or an insult to blacks. And, a better treatment of the causes of the civil war in the government schools would be warranted as well. Just a little closer adherence to the actual history of the country would suffice.

This how bad it is. The schools celebrate Cinco de Mayo to make the illegal aliens happy. But if you mention Jefferson Davis or Robert E. Lee in a government school you are condemned to a re-education class or expelled for insensitivity.
