no slave ship coming into america ever flew a confederate flag. they all flew stars and stripes. the confederate flag doesnt represent slavery, it represents the soldiers who fought under it just like how the stars and stripes represented the soldiers fighting under it. we should have the freedom to fly whatever flag we want under the protection of the constitution and it shouldnt make a difference. if you disagree with a flag that is flown dont worry about it, its not your problem.

No its not a symbol of slavery and hate. Nobody has ever been able to make a logical arguement that it is. Simply because the war was not over slavery. It was about issues with immense overtaxation and abuse of Federal power.

Private property or not, the State still has power over your property and must use the Governing powers that are bestowed by Federal Law. The Rebel Flag is not part of The Union and therefore must not Fly as a symbol of anything American.
The flag clearly displays Southern pride but pride of unlawful things used to hurt others.

don't tell a southern guy that the most famous symbol of the south is a hate banner
Huckabee's right. you come to Arkansas and tell us what flag to fly, well you know the rest

most of the confederate generals were good Christian men. with your language you are a disgrace to our history, heritage, and to the South itself.

I love the way people respond to the Confederate flag by saying "You Lost". It is as if they had won the Civil War themselves, just like armchair quarterbacks that bet on the winning team. They all must be from "The North" to be making such a statements.
I could point out that the slave trade was outlawed in the Confederate Constitution, or that the slave owners in the North were allowed to keep their slaves after Lincoln freed them in the South. But its no use talking to closed ears & minds.

The flag is the Stars and Stripes forever asshole. Get over it: you lost the war!
The flag is supposed to be the Stars and Stripes forever, asshole. Ever heard of "Ole Glory?" Get over it: you lost the war! My flag is better than your flag--you racist-ass punk. Take your flag and go to hell.

If anyone phantoms to be president; why da hell would you embrace a flag that hurts so many people. No, Gomer Pyle is not going to win the nomination. Try again in four years after you adjust your worldview a tad.
