The overwhelming majority clearly stated that this feeling happened when people in the NORTH fly the "stars 'n bars." The symbolism is different, particularly when those folks have no (lineage or direct) connection to the south.

Or, to flip it - do people in the South honestly believe that people from the North should associate the rebel flag with something other than racism/slavery/abasement of non-whites? Because that's essentially the same question.
