I have no love of the Confederate Battle Flag, though I do appreciate its history both to the Southerners and to the USA as a whole. To stand upon the grounds of Gettysburg, I can understand why people admire it and I am appreciative that the south lost at that battle. But things are not cut and dry and lack of knowledge heaped on top of agenda does not an honest conversation make.
Hmmm, I didn't know that, I thought it flew on the state house.

Also, when I first read the title of this thread, I read it incorrectly and thought you were talking about the SCOTUS ruling that came out today, ba-dum-bum-pssh..
