Good god, that guy must be really old for the flag to be PERSONALLY offensive to him. Does he appear in Guinness as the oldest living Federal Soldier of the Civil War?
I wonder if there are any soldiers left from the Mexican-American war who are personally offended when those of Mexican decent or who are immigrants fly the Mexican flag? We fought a war with Mexico and those flags should be burned. It's personally offensive to anyone whose granddaddies died in that war.
The North won, the South lost. Why did so many US communities spend money on Confederate monuments? Think there are monuments to US generals in Vietnam???
Take down the flags AND the monuments. THEY LOST!!!!

My neighbor's Mini Cooper has a Union Jack on the roof, and we fought TWO wars against the British.
This was so courageous that it nearly brought me to tears as he explained why he personally removed a Confederate Flag flying at a local establishment.
Really ? tears? lol Do you need a tissue?
Stop with the hystronics.
It's been closed for over a year. No one knows who put it up. Odds are some kid thinking it was funny.
You have no problem with a Cherokee going to that same flag pole and ripping down the American flag, right?

This coincides with my opinion that the Confederate Flag should NEVER be flown in any traditional Union state where tens of thousands of men shed blood to defeat everything that flag stood for. From Kansas, through Iowa, the Rust Belt, into New Jersey, and furher up into New York and up to Maine. It should be ripped down from any flagpole that it hangs onto and relplaced with ����.
