"Why not put the flag of Iraq or the swastika up?

Because those flags are not historical AMERICAN flags."

The Confederate flags represent a people that fought and killed loyal Americans. Private Citizens can show their ignorance, disguised as Southron pride, and display those flags. However, no government facilities should display them.

They also happened to BE loyal Americans. A hell of alot more loyal than the tyrant Lincoln who suspended the constitution and killed thousands of his countrymen. Sheesh! Let's not loose sight of who was in the right here.

What has the % historically been? As a first generation American, I would be interested in that %.

Yeah, and Lincoln represents a people that brutally murdered innocent southern civilians.

Now if you don't like the confederate flag, don't fly one. But what business is it of yours to weigh in against others who wish to do so? And that includes supporting a company's decision to ban its employees from eating at certain restaraunts over their lunch breaks because those restaraunts happen to fly the flag.
