It is always surreal to see a confederate flag being flown or waved or displayed outside the south. It's just weird. Especially since, even in the south, most people have no clue that that particular flag was NEVER a flag of the CSA. That flag is a variation of the army of Tennesse's battle flag, adopted by the KKK. "The Battle of McNuggets"...lol, that's a good one.
