If we are to ask black people to stop bringing up slavery as an excuse or reason for whatever ails them, then I think it's time we stop trying to protect a flag. Yes, to many people it's a source of pride. My family fought on that side of the war. They were honorable and proud, but let's allow the past to die.

I upvoted. It's not a divisive sign of hate to me, but it is to some people. Those same people bled and died for this country in world wars and proxy wars.

I don't mind moving on and really none of us should.
