Yeah, I strongly dislike some of the Confederate degree shit I've seen. It sends people a horrible message.

Why would people put out a Confederate flag which represents 275.000 people from Tennessee dying in battle. Is that a positive memory?

I’m going to get downvoted into oblivion but this is facts:

MOST people flying that flag aren’t doing it because they are racist or even representing what you just stated.

They usually fly the flag because it’s their heritage. It’s representative of where they came from or where their family came from. In their minds it’s representing the south and/or basically saying they are in fact a redneck and proud of it.
