It’s been a bad year for the Confederate flag. The U.S Capitol removed flags featuring the confederate battle emblem from its grounds and the flag itself has been removed from state buildings and public lands across the south. The flag’s reputation has taken such a downward turn that the Department of Justice has now decided that the brandishing the banner is a symbol of hate.
The confederate flag has taken many forms throughout our country’s history, but most people recognize the “southern cross” hat flew alongside Robert E. Lee’s North Virginia Army as the premier flag of the confederacy.
In modern times, the flag has been flown to represent southern pride, state’s rights, and, sometimes, white supremacy. But this year, the flag has a become a symbol for only the latter.
It’s no longer become acceptable to display the flag for any reason other than racism, and doing so can’t get you in trouble with the law.
See how one man’s display of the flag got him charged with a hate crime on the next page:
Another brain dead idiot who should be in jail.

The Civil War means something to our family. We lost our gg grandfather in that war. Our country was divided people died no matter their race or religion. We must remember history so that we do not repeat it. Although it was not a pretty time in our history we must remember that at the end of the day we are all Americans.
Loretta Lynch is a symbol of hate.
THE CONFEDERATE FLAG IS PART OF THE US HISTORY. IT REPRESENTS A TERIBLE ERA IN OUR HISTORY AND I THINK WE SHOULD KEEP IT TO REMIND US TO NEVER RESORT TO SLAVERY AGAIN. BUT WE ARE IMPORTING MUSLIMS WHO BELIEVE AND PRACTICE SLAVERY. GO FIGURE.
