That argument isn't even applicable here. It's the typical escape argument conservatives use. The conservation is about th flag and hrs horrid symbolism.


When will you realize that most of us aren't defending the flag, but defending the right to fly it ? If you want it gone from public buildings fine, but from Fort Sumter?? That's asinine. Do you think it makes any sense that you can go on google and find all kinds of places to buy a Nazi flag but not a Confederate one?

The holocaust didn't happen here.

Horrible event, but that was larger Europes problem.

Put it in. Museum.

It deserves NO public display.

You realize you are arguing with one of the most ignorant posters in the history of this site?

You have the right to fly it. That's protected speech. People may call you stupid/ignorant/racist if you choose to fly it, but that is protected speech on their part too.

Fort Sumter is a public building.

It is incredibly easy to find places to buy confederate flags. Did you actually try googling it before making that comment?
