@swag @Enron ,

Have you guys been following the debate about taking down the confederate flag after the SC Shooting? The people defending the flag claim it has nothing to do with racism, rather, its supporting the people that fought to defend it. Maybe I'm missing something in my history lessons here but wasn't the flag flown during the times when slavery was prominent and those who fought to defend it were in fact trying to keep slavery alive? So, that leads me to my next question: How then isn't this about racsim if the flag was flown by those trying to keep it alive?
Back in the day it was much more of a political symbol than one of racism, but in the past few decades the vast majority of the people displaying it do so to express their racist attitudes. So, as of now, it's undeniably a symbol of racism.
