Virginia campus removes Confederate flags

28. Ha ha

you don't want to discuss anything--because .................

....YOU know everything.

Some historian. Historians will debate these things.

I never said the flag meant "something else" -- what I said was that the use of the flag as a historical symbol of the old South did not at one time carry the current right wing extremist message that it does today.

I also said it doesn't belong to be ceremonially flown anywhere.

I'm sure Washington and Lee is not a bastion of liberalism. I don't diss them one way or the other. I am talking about how the flag has been hijacked from a historical thing only flown in conservative Southern places to the symbol of extremism that it is today.

Knowing a bit about the history of the South myself.
