True. But, these people are also Americans, and that flag, the American flag, represents their right to protest and free speech. My ancestors and past and current family members have fought and died to protect their, meaning the KKK's, right to demonstrate as they want. A little thing called freedom.
The Confederate flag did no such thing. Part of the heritage that the Confederate flag represents is one of oppression and hate where freedom for a certain ethnic group was not allowed.
