And yet that flag offends people. Should we get rid of it as well?
It's our Countries flag.... the Confederate flag is the flag of an army that attacked us... and lost....
So no
The south didn't attack the north. The south seceded from the union, and the north attacked to prevent them from doing so. Learn your history before you open your mouth.
BTW there are a lot of black people that don't think the flag should be removed, and it is not solely a racist symbol no matter how much you PC morons try to cast it as such. People aren't supporting the flag as much as they don't support this new push toward censorship for some utopian ideal that it will some how stop racism by banning a flag.
