If the heritage groups are smart, they'll declare victory and move on to other battles.
They really dont have anything else to fight about. They're still reenacting the Civil War, do you think they'll give this one up any time soon. Those people will never let it go; but give the new flag about five years though and the people of Georgia will no longer consider it an issue.

They really dont have anything else to fight about. Except fighting censorship, persecution, and other heritage violations.

Yes, everybody who fights for anything that is politically incorrect just likes to fight and has no valid reason for doing so. Anybody who stands up to them, and has the media and the NAACP after them, should give up and cooperate easily because fighting is unseemly and not politically correct. Its not possible that they could have a view that is different than that portrayed by the politically correct crowd. After all, we always believe the NAACP and the Democratic Party over basically rural people from the red zone.
Thats just common sense to accept without thinking.

"They're still reenacting the Civil War" Let's not be too hard on the Civil War Reinactors here! My son is an avid reinactor. He got involved while researching for a book he is writing. His unit portrays either the north or the south, which ever is needed in a current scenerio. They have both uniforms and are proud to use either. At the end of each battle, the bugler plays taps and all on both sides face the American flag with their hats off respectfully, then cheer and shake hands with the other side..... symbollically saying, we just do this for FUN... we aren't still fighting the real civil war! I know there are a few fanaticals... but for the most part you will find the reinactors to be good conservatives with family values who are extremely loyal to their country.
I know that the reinactors have feared that one day they may be prohibited from displaying the historical confederate flags in their battles. That would be a real shame. But I bet you would find most content that the current GA flag be something we can all live with.
