Meh, it certainly has historical value.

Who cares if someone likes a particular flag?


Just treat them like the Trumpkins would and say "Get over it, you lost!"

Michigan fans worshiping Bo Schembechler comes close.

2 - 8 in Rose Bowls and nary a national title to be had.

You have to be black and under 30.


Thats about the only subgroup of the human race that despises the Confederate flag.

Not making a direct analogy here by any means, but I'm curious if you feel the same about the Star of David during the Holocaust.

It's a symbol of rebellion against the government and autonomy for states' rights. I wouldn't call it a participation trophy at all.

If by government and states rights you mean the abolition of slavery and forced industrialization...

In order for something to have any affect, one has to have some type of feeling toward the subject or object in question.
What feelings do you have toward it?

Is it really any worse than this?




Many of us had relatives that fought and died under that flag and it has great historical value in the south.

GA's state flag is based on the stars and bars and most people have no clue. There would definitely be protests if they knew.

I don't mean that at all. A very small percentage of people in slave states could afford to own slaves. What were these other people fighting for? The right to live their lives as they choose without a centralized government far away telling them what they can and cannot do.
