Problem is the flags are not the problem.
Problem is the brains of people who were sadly born with some strange sense of murderous entitlement, and were tragically never taught that love and kindness and decency and equality and freedom and justice are above greed, power, and selfishness - not to mention homicide, genocide, and slavery or segregation in America.
Ya know, I can't help but think of the great achievements our that citizens could have done, had we not kept each other separate as we did for so long, and not suppressed the youth that may have thrived as scientists, scholars, artists, athletes, politicians, even teachers, lawyers, comedians, everything.
All children in this country of ours deserve that opportunity, to dream, and achieve greatness!
Why fear the potential success of others??
We can only imagine the possibilities of educating more of the minds out there, having good schools in ALL neighborhood in the Untited States - and idealistically all around the world but that's is to come
Challengers are better for being up against better opponents, and can learn from each other and grow into a wonderful, beautiful culture and enlightened civilization.
We put a man on the moon they say.
We created remote controls, walkie talkies and bluetooth, and cell phones and smart watches that are miniature freaking computers!
We have made innovations in medicine and use lasers to surgically correct vision, and someone invented viagra!!!
For crying out loud, why do we allow racist ideology to imprison our minds?
Racists force us, and themselves, to waste our energy and time with this bull crap??
I see all people as brothers and sisters and I have love and send love and get even more love back.
It feels good, I wish everyone could see how wonderful it can be.
But didn't the south want to keep slavery?
I did not know the first slave owner was a black man.

It happens - injustice, racism and slavery - it is horrible.
It happens all over, though ancient times, and still to this day in different parts of the world.
Child slavery, human trafficking, all around the world people are still bought, sold, kidnapped, handed down from owner to owner.
The possibility that the very first slave owner in the 13 Colonies was a Negro sounds interesting, but justifies defending slave ownership about as much as me defending Nazi crimes by randomly informing people that Hitler was a Jew/Jewish supposedly.
My flags fly year round where I live. Please feel free to come remove them any time you and little miss Caribbean munchkin care to. In the meantime learn the true history not what was handed to you by the system.

Have fun with those ridiculous flags.
Good thing it wasn't the White race who were enslaved by Black masters, ain't it...
Still wasting time on this planet though... with this bull crap no one asks to endure.
We're lucky that the enemies of our nation, The Confederates, were defeated as they waged a bloody, destructive civil war on the USA - this land of Freedom and Independence - based on immoral values.
To defend greed and hatred, and suppression and teach sweet innocent newborns that there is a value greater than love, or understanding and freedom, and justice man... that's a freaking crime.
It's not new, but it's still lame af.
I'm not sure if you're implying, or flat out displaying that you are a racist, but .... are you... trying to say we should accept the Confederate flag at the same time, or what?
I wish better for your precious mind, and your precious soul dear thing, sweet pretty person that you are, or could be, you know, on the inside.
You're just a victim of your brain, and the concepts that you probably didn't have a choice in what you learned to take pride in, but frankly an adult's gravitation to this ideology indicates a low self esteem and insecurity.
Btw... Little Miss North American Anglo Munchkin Man, I'm also a Caribbean munchkin so on behalf of Puerto Rican munchkins - I wish you joy, and love, and peace.
