RE: I don't understand; why do people defend things such as the confederate flag

Propaganda, mostly. A lot of people down here don't think racism is a big deal, and don't see the flag as signifying anything horrible. Some part of it is a misguided idea of patriotism. Culture-wise, the south has its ups and downs. Most places do. I don't think we should romanticize the confederacy, but one thing to remember is the south is full of conservatives. Conservatives resist change, thus they resist taking down the flag that symbolizes The South.
