I only wish I could be a teenager again punk, did I hurt your widdle feelings?
Ignorant people such as yourself can't hurt my feelings. It make you feel real big stepping on a flag? Wonder if your friend appreciates you doing that to the gift he gave you. Such a nice friend you are.
I'd chalk that up to people who are historically illiterate. As the saying goes, "heritage not hate." Even being west coast born and raised the Confederate flag doesn't bother me one bit. People say it represents slavery which I find rather odd considering that slave owners were an extreme minority. If states want to keep the image on their state flags or fly it on a statehouse (provided it is below the American flag), I fail to see what is so wrong with that.
LOL I am far from "historically illiterate."
What I am is a white person related by marriage to a wide rainbow of other ethnicities, including African Americans. Regardless of what the flag represented 150 years ago, it represents repression and slavery and discrimination based on the color of one's skin to many people TODAY.

My friend feels the same as I do about that dirty rotten stinking rag, I already said he was trying to be funny when he gave it to me.
Oh, nothing's wrong with it if you forget that it symbolizes the Civil War, when half the country wanted to withdrawal from the Union, and of course, slavery.
Let me ask, would you buy a person today if you could?
What if it was you who were being sold, would that be OK with you?
I understand why anyone who's ancestors were slaves may dislike the flag. But they should feel the same way about the US flag for both had slaves. In fact they were slaves many more years under the US flag than under the Confederate flag. But for me it has nothing to do with slavery. It represent my ancestors attempt to begin their own country and break away from the oppression they felt coming from a power that ruled over them that did not have their interest at heart. It represents my ancestors struggle to repel the invasion of their country by a foreign power that was set on our destruction and to desire to rule over us without giving us equal rights. It was my ancestors fight for freedom. It reminds me of the wrong done to my people by the evil Federal government of the United States. We are still waiting for our reparations too!
