Confederate Battle Flag

The Confederate battle flag is a symbol of pride and heritage to me. There were African-Americans who voluntary fought in the Confederate Army. The Union Army paid black and white soldiers differently, the Confederate Army paid them the same.

Also other: symbol of treason.

I don't know why they should rename these parks, though the comparison you made about the church being preserved was true.

We don't name things after traitors.

Honestly, I have to once again bow down in defeat on this one. Not only is my analogy wrong, but I don't know why I almost instinctively defended the south. Robert E. Lee and the Confederate flag is one thing, but for God’s sake, we are talking about Nathan Bedford Forest!!

It's because your libertarian, revisonist, neoconfederate "states rights" feelers tingled.

The appropriate thing to do would be to hold a public toppling ceremony where participants proceed to smash the statues, burn the signs and Confederate flags, followed by the deliverance of patriotic speeches while flags are waved and patriotic songs are sung. Thoughout this ceremony, racists should be hit with sticks.
