Should The Confederate Flag Fly On Capitol Hill?

[Dont Tread on Me]

The Ku Klux Klan was originally just a social group of pranksters. It wasn't until well after the end of the war that it became the organization most recollect.

My forefather fought for the CSA in the 1st Louisiana Cav. and I have immense pride in the Confederate flag. The war was about Southern sovereignty and dignity, that's why we Southerners fought so valiantly to defend our homelands from the Yankee invader.

There are still plenty of Confederate flags here that fly on houses and businesses, to me, it's just a symbol of the south and southern values.

The reason why people hate it is because the KKK have adopetd it as their flag

I love the stars and cross bars... I wish the north would understand it is nothing to do with race.  Only bigots miss use whats its origins was.  The southerners had beautiful women, wonderful kids and men were gentlemen

Stars and bars is actually a different confederate flag, the battle flag you are displaying is commonly referred to as the Dixie flag.

That flag is the Naval Jack.  This is the real Confederate flag:



And yes, it should be displayed.

  There is ONE flag. American US Flag. I do not agree with how the Southerners have the confederate flag portrayed. Just my personal opinion. I do have to agree that the KKK has adopted it, which is why it is now labeled as 'racist' So, in this degree, I think we have been liberalized, b/c the South has NOT FOUGHT THIS.
