There's a guy down the street in Gretna with a Confederate flag flying on his front lawn. This is in a racially mixed neighborhood but most folks don't seem to care.

Probably have bigger things to worry about, when COVID-19 dies down there will be a protest....

I wouldn’t care. I’m sure the neighbors probably are the ones that wouldn’t fly it themselves, but don’t mind the affect it has in deterring certain new movers.

Either way I just consider it an easier way to identify people I wouldn't be friends with. Not that it inherently makes you a bad person, I just don’t personally think I’ve ever liked someone that would fly one.

If you have a neighbor with a confederate flag you are undoubtedly poor

Nah. I don't live around trash.
We rarely even have political signs in the yards around me.

My neighbor proudly flies the stars & bars. No one says anything, nor should they as it's his damn property.

the "edgiest" thing we get on the coast is Trump flags, but that's just some high school kid that flies it out the back of his truck to troll people

I guess some people see the Stennis flag and roll their eyes - it's the proposed alternative to the current state flag - but I actually like it a lot.

No swastikas flying, thankfully

There are like 5 Masters flags flying in my neighborhood right now

Which isn't controversial, but it is tragic

Libs keep trying to erase history. It’s about heritage.

“Racially mixed” was another dead giveaway

My neighborhood is a bunch of Vols and Bama flags. I'm the only one with an LSU flag, so I guess I'm the controversial neighbor

It really isn't for most people who fly it. It certainly isn't for the idiot with the jacked up, straight piped, loud as hell piece of shite Dodge that drives past my house every day. A flag on each side of the truck. Said he had to lift the truck even more when he found bigger flags, "so they wouldn't touch the ground".

I have a neighbor that flies a US Flag. I'm sure that's offensive to some people.

Those people however should get the frick out of this country.
