In the context of this discussion where we are talking about formally displaying the Union Flag with the State Flag in front state capitol buildings, no. Like it or not, that Flag is just showing my state as being part of the United States even if the behavior of this nation sometimes makes you want to barf in your mouth a little when.
But why display a flag for a Confederacy that doesn't exist anymore? What is the state trying to say here going out of they're way to display a symbol connected with either Slavery or Secession?
Also, I'm partly biased here for some reason, but I just strongly connect this symbol rednecks. It just think it would be a good PR move for them to take down this flag.
Two things;
1. What's bad about secession?
2. Truthfully if I had to chose between a bunch of rednecks and these self righteous hypocrites demanding the flag be taken down I would have to go with the rednecks.
