Thanks koo for your truthful information. As a southerner (not a racist as is too commonly perceived ) I both love that flag and acknowledge its bad side as far as being used by anti-black groups. There are two sides to this story that maybe only southerners and well traveled people get. For me, the freedom of speech issue weighs in heavily.
