So I don't even know who lives in the house down the road with that flag.  I doubt he's black, but it's possible.  I just assume he's probably a white dude who probably has some ideas in his head that are pretty predictable and I assume the guy has probably lived in this small town his entire life.  Again, just assumptions but I bet he and I would both agree that stereotypes exist for a reason, eh?

The main thing I think about when I see someone in the north flying the confederate flag is that they may very well be flying the flag of the army that was attempting to kill their ancestors. I picture some rural PA good ol' boy saying he wishes the South won the civil war and then he starts to fade away like Old Biff in Back To the Future 2. 

I'm not saying there isn't anyone who still thinks that's OK, but they would be extremely few, and certainly not the assumed stance of someone who supports strong states' rights.
