On an unrelated note:
If you want to protest the Confederate flag because of it's somehow connection to "slavery" and "racism" (both false, but whatever), then perhaps you should be protesting the American flag...which was the flag flying on the ships which brought the slaves here.
Just a thought.
And no, the Confederates were acting defensively and we're occupied territory. Sort of like Iraq or Afghanistan now.

It's like a civil war in Africa; you know, it doesn't really concern you too much. - P.J. O'Rourke
