I would wager that most people in Massachusetts really don't care one way or the other. Someone suddenly noticed that the design offended them.
Possibly. The article you cited, however, explicitly states that about 30 municipalities have endorsed a bill to change the flag, so whatever else is true, it's evident that quite a few people do care.
And again, this is their argument to have, and their decision to make, isn't it? What's YOUR beef with them doing what they clearly have every right to do?
Yep, we need to wipe out any and all references to Native Americans, so it's as if our ancestors never existed at all. Soon our school text books will leave your grandchildren to believe all that existed when Europeans sailed to the East coast was beaver and deer.

Because if you aren't offended by the flag, it means you are a racist, or some other type of hateful person. "Viva la political correctness revolution!"
Looks like we're going to have to do a state-by-state examination of flags to determine the level of offensiveness.
What you mean "we", Kimosabe?
