I don't believe I ever said it was right? I'm confused...@luv2cheer92, I read your message and unfortnately, the beloved flag you remembered flying all over Virginia have been used to instill racial hatred and killings toward a group...This is similar to the swastika, which before Hitler represented "well being and good fortune and was highly represented in the Hindu and other Europeans nation as a good symbol, but the Nazis took a positive symbol and made it into a symbol of hatred, try to explain to a Jewish person that swastika that was placed all over your town is a good thing...You know what? I do not see anybody trying to tell Jews to forget about the Holocaust and lets compromise and allow us to place a swastika anywhere... But it behooves me why it is okay to ask African-Americans, who have been victims of this confederate flag, a symbol of hatred to compromise in where it should be flown...Can you explain how this is different?
