I think the point of the picture is to show that, by flag standards, KKK got it right.
So.... waving the american flag don't make you a saint.
Waving confederate don't make you evil, numb nuts.

The shallow notion of a book being judged by it's color seems fine when it's a certain group doing it, It's just not ok for others to do.

That is the famous William Tecumseh Sherman- the man many credit with winning the war. He fought and commanded troops for the North.

Ok. you are asking me if im offended of an image by a Northern ( AMERICAN ) war commander. Well he was faced with the task of defending peoples liberties and they won. Does it offend me to see a war commander? Yes, of course it does. Was he battling an unavoidable evil force? Yes.

Middle, high school and JC. They BEGAN flying it in HS as a response to all of the Mexican flags being flown by MAPA protesters. The protesters said it was their right under the 1st amendment
and so my friends chose to exercise their right also. i say everyone shoulda been flying US flags since they were utilizing the Constitution it represents.
And yes, Central Cali between Fresno and Bako. Farming community.

But his claim is accurate regarding many people's opinion on how free speech works imo.
what does that mean?

And what about people repping Irish flags? Why should the population of farm workers be submitted to abuse just for being proud of their heritage. They are in fact more true americans than the people flying confederate flags.
how does one rationalize it being ok to fly a racist flag to "harm" other citizens who are just proud of who they are? who thought of this crap

History can teach great lessons. War is terrible but that does not mean it has no lesson to learn from. Our society needed to evolve beyond slavery - the civil war helped us do that. I would have preferred a different way to do it but it's our history. I also have American revolution items - a Betsy Ross flag among them. George Washington was a war commander too, are you upset when you see his face on the dollar bill or quarter?
