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

Much as the swastika began as an Indian good luck symbol that was taken over (much later) by the Nazis. The Confederate Battle Flag was designed in the aftermath of First Manassas by an aide to General P.G.T. Beuaregard. Beauregard had been angered by the similarity between the Federal Flag and the Confederate Stars and Bars which, at a distance in battle with thick sheets of musket and cannon smoke made it difficult to tell friend from foe.
However, both neo-nazis and southern racists must understand that while their individual favorite symbols may have begun innocently enough they have become corrupted by the despicable causes which adopted them and are forever tainted.
Go grow up, nazis. We all know you are full of shit.
