The only reason this is an issue right now is because the Democrats and the left want to stir up as much racial conflict and animosity as they can. This flag is being flown on a memorial in South Carolina and is not stopping us or anyone from getting past the race issue.
Clearly, the Democrats and the left do not want to get past the race issue, as their actions around this flag and many other episodes have routinely demonstrated.
It really irks me that people will go out of their way to make issues out of non issues.
If your biggest concern at the end of the day is the Confederate Flag.....then you have no issues.
It's not black against white......it's person against person. It's the hatred and anger that people have for one another.
It's the mind set of I am better then you.
It's the mind set that I drive a 80k vehicle, I am better then you.
It's the mind set that I live in a million dollar home, I am better then you.
It should not matter what Color, Race, Sex, Religion, Age or how much money....
It does only because you and I make it matter. YOU and I......
It's not only the White Person's fault. It's not only the Black Person's fault......it's both.
A Flag is not going to make a difference......a word is not going to make a difference.
You and I -will make a difference.
I agree. As if racism would just up and disappear if said flag disappeared.

Lmfao its a flag, a piece of cloth... yeah we have for sure moved past race, before people were protesting about forced segregation between blacks and whites, now we are whining about a piece of fabric
Yet a piece of fabric that people want to display high, and sometimes in their own unique ways that only "real, patriotic Americans" can appreciate: Image from http://www.slate.com/content/dam/sla...ediumlarge.jpg
South Carolina Governor Haley To Call For Confederate Flag’s Removal
Quote:
In the wake of a racially charged mass shooting that left nine African-American parishioners dead at a historically black church in Charleston, South Carolina, Republican Gov. Nikki Haley on Monday will call for the Confederate flag outside the state capitol to be taken down, sources confirmed to NBC News.
Haley will deliver the remarks during a scheduled 4 p.m. ET press conference amid mounting pressure to remove the controversial flag following the massacre, which authorities have called a hate crime.
Following the usual modus operandi of the Republican Party, Haley has decided to make this move to bring South Carolina out of the 19th century only after it has caused her party considerable damage.
And once again, we see that conservatism is really just liberalism... a few decades too late.

What is wrong with displaying a piece of fabric? there are probably hundreds of American flags flying within a 10 mile radius of my house and they don't hurt anyone.
May be conservatives would be better served by stop being PC and use that flag to represent them as a people? To paraphrase Lindsey Graham... the flag makes y'all who you are!
