Of course, not the point. Bash America all you want, but try sticking to the point. The Confedrate flag specifically represents fighting to keep slavery. No way around it.

Actually, the Confederate battle emblem was added to the Georgia State Flag in direct response to the Brown v. BoE decision as a symbol of defiance against integration. Georgia should have gone back to the pre-56 flag, which would have honored both history and all Georgians. Plus, it's pretty spiffy looking.
