Actually several poster have provided links to any number of events that have been cancelled or have been threatened with cancellation. Does this spell the ultimate doom of reenacting? Not really but it does make it harder to enjoy the hobby just in the name of political correctness. A simple web search will provide many more links then these.
So one link was to a reanactment that was cancelled in the atmosphere immediately following the Charoltte riots, because they thought it was too soon to hold the event in light of what had just happened. My guess is things are fine now.
The other was a reenactment that got caught up in the sudden change in Florida's gun laws. The law was not targeting reenactments. Again, that will get worked out for next year.
The last is just speculation from people who currently particiapte but are worried that the recent revisiting of the historical place of the Civil War will effect the popularity of reenactments. Again, they have recently experienced a surge in popularity, so nothing has happened yet.
So in other words, no one is actually targeting reenacments. At least not yet.
Is it your position the WW2 German reenactors are all NAZIS?
I never said that. Reenactments are a legitimate use of CBFs and German flags, especially in a historically accurate context. People who fly them for any other reason are suspect.

You are perfectly within your rights to fly it on your property. My question is, "What statement are you trying to make with it"?
Maybe I like pretty colors? Nobody's darn business what my statement is, yet the second I put one up People will be lining up with pitchfork and torches....
