Honest question. Because if you HONESTLY think that's why it's flown down here, then shame on you for being so ignorant about the South.
As far as the article is concerned, yeah, bad choice. But that made the news because it is NOT why the flag is usually flown. You only ever hear about the exceptions, not the rule itself.
