Considering it’s documented in history. Yes.
It was a show of unity to respect the dead confederate soldiers but push the leadership out. That’s what happened.
That’s funny you think things like that are “documented”. The South being pretty unhappy with the outcome of the war is “documented” too btw. So why would they still be flying it in 2015? Why honor vets killed in a treasonous rebellion 160 years ago and not say, WW1, WW2, Vietnam, Korea, Iraq or Afghanistan? How about a POW MIA flag?
Why are you asking me?
Because you apparently believe something different and asserted it to me. I didn't understand the logic of what you said though so I was attempting to discuss it.
As I said I don’t fly the battle flag and I don’t get why red states fly a democrat flag other than tradition. The confederacy was a failed attempt by the democrats to keep slavery and form a new country. I think everyone needs to be reminded what the democrats did and their flag shouldn’t be celebrated.
