This is why some people still get pissed when symbols of the South are venerated because it is still a dark reminder to what could have been.

As some posters stated earlier ad nauseum, the Confederate flag is almost along the same lines as the Nazi swastika and in some ways even moreso.

Opponents of the Confederate flag see it as an overt symbol of racism

Others view the flag as a symbol of rebellion against the federal government of the United States

And what doesn't help is that hate groups in the US rally behind the flag.

It's funny when you think about it because the swastika was the same way as it is used as a religious Hindu symbol and was found in Pre Christian Europe. Thanks Germany.

...and where did I get "compassion" from? Well next time in your efforts to correct me, try looking up the definition of the word, "humane".

When you say that slavery was "more humane" you are saying that masters here showed "more compassion" for their 3/5th of a human they kept. I call it bullshit.

This!
