That needs to be removed immediately and placed in a museum. As does the one in DC.
I'm from a small town where the annual celebration regularly involves the Confederate flag. Where there's one flying every few miles.
And, generally, I don't understand why we spend do many resources celebrating a failed rebellion while at the same time celebrating the country it rebelled against. The guys who fly both flags seem like they don't understand what they're doing. Like wearing a Browns Jersey and wearing a Bengals cap.
