I went to Carlisle this weekend and I saw a lot of people with the Confederate flag? Why is this? I thought that the Confederate flag was only flown in the south..

They're racists. Every state has them. I have to say, I can't think of anyplace I've seen them flying around me - I live in the Lehigh Valley. I'm sure someone has them hanging somewhere, but it's not common.

See link below for a famous quote:

Pennsylvania is Philadelphia and Pittsburgh with Alabama in between.

I live in the Philadelphia area and attend college in the Lehigh Valley. I have only seen a Confederate Flag once in Woodlyn, a suburb of Philly in Delaware County. A guy with a lifted truck had it on his driver's side door. It was shocking to me back then. I didn't think I would ever see that in the Delaware Valley.

Probably the same reason all these other people have seen the Confederate flag flying in all these other states. People from other states have no right to criticize.

several residences between Exeter and Pottstown on 422 fly this disgraceful flag. A roadside BBQ truck had one, but took it down.

Before this thread gets moved to the POC forum, I think we'll close it up.
