If he was patriotic then shouldn't they have donned U.S. flags?
Oh, that would have triggered the trigger-happy even more! In fact, how could you be so insensitive to oppressed peoples who hate America? To them, the U.S. flag is a, er, red flag. Confusingly, they also demand the right to immigrate here illegally.
Functionally speaking, many of the most patriotic Americans today love Confederate flag gear. It's certainly more regional, rather than anti-U.S. A "Resist" rally at Darlington would go poorly, is my guess.
Southern whites can trade the Confederate flags for the flags from this country’s war of independence; the history is “cleaner” (in terms of a divided country/secession), and if it makes them feel better, the early flags represent a country where the whole country had slaves (if that is their point/purpose) instead of half of it. Doing this will expose their opponents for what they truly are: Enemies of the country founded by Europeans who hacked it of the wilderness centuries ago.
Not if you understand what ‘country’ versus ‘nation’ means.
My country is louisiana- my nation is the USA. I have no more in common with a Hawaiian than the man on the moon.
