I'm of two minds about this. I've got no problem with the Confederate flag as a historical and cultural touchstone, so long as it isn't being employed for Aryan racist type demagoguery.
OTOH, I am so sick and tired of adults using their children as pawns for their own political agendas. You name the issue, and adults are using kids as catspaws: gay Scoutmasters in the BSA, condoms and anonymous abortions for 13 year olds, school uniforms, picketing Bush as a field trip, lawsuits over the Pledge of Allegiance. Hey, grownups! Fight your own battles!

I think you've made the best and worst of the situation known.
I can only add that I think it's stupid to gum up the court system with this kind of malarky when there is still a very real worldwide problem with human trafficking. Lincoln didn't end slavery. He didn't even scratch the surface.
