>I don't think anyone who wants the Confederate flag flown in public believes in the return of slavery and Jim Crow. I'd think you're wrong on that count, but regardless, that flag strikes fear in the hearts of many, many people in our own country. >By the way, I thought liberals didn't believe in right or wrong. Well, apparently I buck the trend. >What might be offensive to you could be a symbol of pride and heritage to someone else, right? What right do you have in "imposing" your values on Southerners? Think about it. The shoe is now on the other foot. I have no problem with imposing certain values or trying to suppress others... slavery and racism are values that shouldn't be tolerated. On the same note, I also take issue with the recent rise in "hero worship" of Stalin in Russia. -Z
