It is offensive, and I suspect it is meant to be. There are few people in this country with deeper southern roots than mine, but the confederacy no longer exists. I know that we are talking about the battle flag but it is a symbol non the less. Those who fly it know what it means to those who fear and abhor it. Ancestral slave ownership, or lack there of, has nothing to do with blatant racism.
While I'm here, I am sick to death of the "BET, Miss Black USA", "If there was a white version of...." That kind of talk comes from the same low brow low bred thinking from which the Klan arose.
I may as well get into the other ignorance while I'm posting. Being of higher intellect or having a Christian sense of compassion does not automatically make one a Democrat. The former President / current candidate tandem to who I believe one of you referred are personally more offensive to me that the afore mentioned flag is to an African American.
Oh well, hope we can one day all get along, the world would be a better place.
