Reply To: Fly the flag of the Confederate States of America?
You know, when I was down in Louisiana, I discovered the people there do not call it the “American Civil War”. They call it the “War of Northern Aggression”. They also claim some of the northern states still had slaves, and that the war was fought because the north was losing out on import taxes etc when the southern plantations decided to develop and use a southern port instead of transporting their produce up to the northern ports.
It’s no surprise, therefore, that different areas of the USA think differently about the flag in question.
Seriously, the remedy for all this contradiction is education. If the Federal Government set educational graduation content, and all students had to pass a standardized federal exam to graduate, just like every other country in the western world does, you’d be able to resolve these insane disparities in what people believe is fact.
