But, in all seriousness, to claim people who wave or support the Stars and Bars support slavery in any form is not true.
Well, like I said:
"The Confederate flag might not inherently support slavery, but.....in my opinion, the flag does inherently show tolerance of slavery, which isn't much better."
So I'd say there's a difference between "supporting" and "tolerating." I understand that not all Southerners were slave owners, and I certainly am aware that the Civil War had a lot less to do with slavery than some might want to think. I just think that when you(generally, I mean) brandish a symbol as recognizable as the Confederate Flag, you have to understand what that symbol stands for, and one of the things(not the only thing, but one of the things) the Confederate Flag stood for was slavery. That was something the Confederate Army was fighting for.
