re: What value does the Confederate battle flag have?

I have zero love for the confederacy or the cause for which that flag flew. However, it does have value as an historical artifact. It's a part of the fabric of this nation--you have to take the good and the bad. It all contributed to the America we know today. Also, from a vexillology standpoint, it has tremendous value.

Well said. Just because it was a bad period in the history of this country, it STILL part of its history. Study it and learn from it. The idiots that use it for some kind of rallying cry can go frick themselves with a rubber dick.

Yeah but does it really lose that value when you stop flying it at a state capital or bad it from a NASCAR event?
