Get over it. The South Lost the Civil War and their symbols should have faded away with the Confederacy. Your nostalgic obsession with the Confederacy would be like Germans flying the Nazi flag because they wanted to respect their heritage.
My nostalgic obsession? Some of us have family who fought valiently in that war and are buried like dogs in a mound at places like Shiloh. You compare the confederacy to the nazis? Are you so stupid that you don't know the stars and bars never flew over any slavery? It was a BATTLE FLAG. All I ask for is that my heritage isn't spit on and torn down by my fellow Americans, but that is asking a lot, I'm sure.
Your petty little mind can't grasp the fact that the WONA had more than one causation. Want to guess which flag it was when the slave ships pulled into port on the African coast?
Being a newbie here, you haven't realized that the confederacy is very much alive in the hearts of southerners--especially southern freepers. Why don't you stop listening to that propaganda line fed to you by the mainstream press and publk skewls and educate yourself before belittling the struggle for limited government.
Uno problemo. Most Germans are not PROUD of their heritage. We are.
