I agree with you on teh flag issue (but for different reasons), but I think it's hard to assign motive to everyone who supports it. To say that the confederate flag is ALWAYSE tollerant of slavery is like saying the Japanese flag is a sighn of emperialism, genocide and suicide attacks.



Well, the Confederacy wasn't around as long as the Japanese empire has been.

Also, I think it's a bit different between slavery and suicide attacks(or the relocation of Native Americans, as doc referenced with the American flag). One is a specific tactic or strategy, one is an ideal or institution that is a primary part of the establishment.
