Maybe the White + Strait + Conservative need to support each other and CARE vocally and loudly about their values, and make themselves known and heard.

Yes, in the U.S. many flags of vanquished nations are honored.

Are they flying on Federal property? Placed above the US flag? I'm from Texas, and the Six Flags concept is not about the countries per se, but the fact that the Texas republic and now state has been a part of 5 nations and constituted 1 republic. It's very unique and worth noting.

You also misread my statement. I said that Confederate values are not supported by the current constitution, which was quite deliberately changed to reject them. The only people who believe in those values are racists, sexists, White supremacists, and sore losers.

Growing up in Florida, the only people I knew who flew these flags hated blacks and called them ******s.

I can't think of ANY person I know today who I consider intelligent, articulate or educated who advocates flying this flag, or thinks of it purely from a historical perspective.

That's your subjective view.
For some, all flag waivers are just a pack of brainless turds.
For some, waiving the American flag is idiotic, etc, etc.

Why is this thread still open? This was about a Homestead council meeting that happened 16 months ago! Don't they close threads here?

I know a gentleman who lives in southern Florida, his name is Wade Hamiliton *****...he is the second generation in his family named after the confederate general...and his great, grandfather fought in the confederate army. His family is very proud of military service, and every generation has been in the military, even the confederate army...so...they have a confederrate flag in thier home, and are not racist people. Just really nice folks, who are southern, and proud. Yes, he is almost 95, and it is his generation...so I think that it is okay in this case...(by the way, they have six generations of Wade Hamptons in their family, they are proud of their heritage...)
