“To be it represents the emblem of secessionist treason. “
So, I guess to you then the US flag would also represent such a thing since the colonies committed secessionist treason against its original country of Great Britain.
Think of why the Confederates wanted to leave the union and think how that is even more relevant today.
Not even close in your logic pal. The colonists were ‘’subjects’’ of a monarchy wanting to establish a new country based on freedom and equality. Not secessionists looking to create their own slave-holding empire.
It is remarkable to me that they make the comment like that dude did and not realize we did the very same thing with the “mother country” and they cant make the connection.
Then, they do not know this, that US Grant would have sided with the south IF, they would not have attacked Fort Sumter. When they did that, he opposed the south.
There are a lot of people that immigrated up here from Alabama and Miss when Grant turned them loose after capturing Vicksburg. Those boys had enough and went north looking for work and my folks gave them that work-later (after the war) sold them property so they could farm and build their own places for their families.
