No. The current flag $ucks. I've always thought it $ucked. The Confederate battle jack may be "heritage" for some, but it has, rightly or wrongly, been co-opted by Skinheads and the KKK. It's the same reason Buddhists and Hindus no longer use the Swastika, a benevolent symbol until 'ol Toothbrush Face co-opted it.

Well it appears last time they had a vote on it, the vast majority disagreed with your sentiment.

First they came for the confederate flag but I didn’t care because I wasn’t a supporter of it. Then they came for Washington, Jefferson and Francis Scott Key... Now what?
