"Following this warped line of reasoning, I guess we shouldn't fly the American flag either, since by today's PC standards, our nation was also "stained" with the alleged evil of denying the vote to black people and to women.

That's like blaming the Bible for the evils of the history of Christianity; but our nation, and the Bible, were not born in evil like the Confederate flag. What do you think our nation is birthed from?

The founders of this nation did not see fit to abolish slavery or to grant the vote to blacks either. So following your specious "logic," the United States was "born of evil" just as the "wicked" Confederacy was. You're so blinded by hatred of the Confederacy that you simply can't or won't see the hypocrisy and double standards in your statements.
