What constantly bothers me about this confederate flag, BS! When I comment why no one ever ask a Jewish person about that swastika flag and why you do not see them flying freely on government buildings, it seems like I never get a response! No one seems to say anything about this and make comments like that swastika flags is not going bring back the Holocaust ...Okay, you know let's hang up both a swastika and a confederate flag on our government buildings, if we want to support these symbols equally...It is not that swastika flag will bring back the Holocaust nor the confederate will bring back or stop racism or lynching... So put them both up, let's not leave any hated symbols out.Very true. It kind of reminds me of the Confederate flag debate; taking down the Confederate flag everywhere isn't going to stop racism. And banning the use of 'Redskins' as a mascot won't suddenly alleviate all of the problems faced by the NA community.
Just like the swastika for the Jewish people and that confederate flag represents hatred and lynching that occurred in our country...So, I strongly believe we need to take down those hatred symbols and our government, not show support for these ideas...
Additionally, I hate the idea that my daughter and son are living and paying taxes to a country that see nothing wrong with supporting these symbols, PERIOD!
