Yes, Gettysburg and other parks are starting to remove the flag even used in history. They're numerous reenacting events held in these towns, where we go relive history and let the Yanks whoop us. Some of events in Gettysburg that brings in big tourist dollars. Mass rising up of CS reenacting groups starting that will no longer partake of these events.

To date...
I haven't seen anyone burning a confederate flag.
The opposite flag is an entirely different matter. The stars and bars are a form of free speech. So now we are going to allow the politically correct to dictate rights afforded by the constitution? It might be time to secede again.:-? |

All because some deranged little bigot decided to act on his hatred. Can the feds and the odd state governor say they haven't done the same thing on numerous occasions? It's just more fear mongering plain and simple. The Stars and Bars are merely a symbol of southern pride, not a penchant to promote slavery. I would say that that dark chapter in our history should be done but, every working adult is a slave to the IRS and the federal banking system. There are still numerous examples of racism prevalent in our society on both sides of the issue but, free speech affords that right to all and it's one that I swore to defend at one point. I still do. |

I see it more as a defense against the first Republican dictator. Lost the war? I offer clarification... At first it was thought that the Yanks were coming for the whisky and the women. When the real purpose of their visit was discovered, we just quit fightin and tried to go home. Then, Sherman marched to the sea, burning everything in his path. Talk about holding a grudge!:down: There are no victors in war. If it comes to blows, both sides lose. |

Ok, I'll concede that point but, let's take a brief look at the racist nature of Abraham Lincoln... From Wikipedia... The ACS(American Colonization Society), a private organization supported by prominent American politicians such as Abraham Lincoln, Henry Clay, and James Monroe, believed repatriation was preferable to emancipation of slaves.[14] Similar organizations established colonies in Mississippi-in-Africa and the Republic of Maryland, which were later annexed by Liberia. On July 26, 1847, the settlers issued a Declaration of Independence and promulgated a constitution, which, based on the political principles denoted in the United States Constitution, created the independent Republic of Liberia. Let's not stray too far off topic. |
