They are just going to move it again. You can remove symbols but not the feelings in a person’s heart. The flag will be taken down and put in a museum or elsewhere. It’ll be like the Ché shirts to the liberal/counterculture of the 60s.
The Confederate Flag is simply a part of history. But, it belongs in a museum, not being flown over a city. These idiots who want to tear down the Jefferson memorial & various other memorials are unreasonable. Are you going to tear up the civil war memorial battlefields & historical monuments while you are at it? How about destroying the historical plantations scattered around the country? ISIS does that in the middle east. They destroy history. I am so sick of all of this unreasonable, emotional stupidity. Get over it, people. Amazon pulls it’s confederate stuff & does not pull it’s NAZI stuff? Both are history. Get over it. Stupid is as stupid does.
That flag was probably Made in China, and no self-respecting museum would want it. Unless the exhibit is about what racist fools the SC legislature was when they mandated its location and tried to set it in stone so it could never be moved. In any case, the Tennessee battle flag really gained popularity as resistance to civil rights. Some “heritage”.

It was always offensive to anyone who thought the country was called the “United” States. It is, after all, the symbol of treason.

Well hi, Dense.
Your position in a discussion about American civil rights is that Che is a bad guy?
Disagree if you want, but try to comprehend the topic.
