Quote:Asking as a guy with no real dog in this hunt, I just have a simple question:

 

The flag flies over a Confederate graveyard, correct?

 

 

 

You wouldn't fly a Star of David over a Christian graveyard, would you? 

 

As far as I know, the flag flies over a memorial to the confederate soldiers lost during the war.  The "offense" that people take from that is because the Civil War was "about slavery" and thus the Confederate Flag is "racist" and "offensive".  No actual reference or news reports give a really honest answer,

 

To give you an answer, yes the flag flies (flew) over a burial ground and memorial of those that were lost during the Civil War.

 

The PC police are out in force, and want to eradicate our nation's history.  People on fringe groups are desecrating memorials and want our history effectively "erased".  I wonder which side of the political aisle they are on?
