[QUOTE="Robert Thomas, post: 1023576, member: 65566"] Frank if you truly support the removal of the Confederate Flag for racist/slavery reasons, I understand. I do wonder how you stand on the American Flag. The American Flag had 100 plus years rule over slavery compared to the Confederate Battle Flag which only flew over Civil War battles for less than 4 years. The Confederate Flags are seldom flown. I grew up in the Virginia with Grandparents who were born close to the end of the War of Northern aggression. They still had strong feeling about the "War" (as it is known in the South), and while my families did not have anything but the US Flag in their homes they still had strong beliefs that were passed on through the generations. I can tell you now my feelings that were passed on from them. While I have never owned a Confederate Battle Flag I believe it's popularity in the South stands 99% for the proud standards of southern living. It to me does demonstrate some hatred, not of the African American, but of Damn Yankees that indiscriminately burnt and lay waste to the Southern States. [/QUOTE]
