If this guy wants to support the Confederate flag, ok, but hope he knows the Confederate Constitution supported slavery.

If you want to support the American flag, ok, but I hope you know that the American Constitution supported slavery.

(Pssst... yes, I do support the American flag)

The US Constitution also abolished slavery so redress was made however the Confederate Constitution never got amended to abolish slavery. So yes support the American Flag, it stands for redemption and Freedom.

For those who don’t know the American Constitution listed slaves as 3/5ths of a human. I am not sure what they did about free Negroes.
