And for the record I am not disagreeing with Ernest on the nature of the Confederacy itself - but I do think that the fact is that there's a massive difference between, say, being on the level of Jesse Bright, and flying the Stars and Bars today.

And for the record, I think such a ban wouldn't be a good policy, tho flying that flag in anything other than very limited historical contexts can't reasonably interpreted as anything other than an endorsement of white supremacy.

The South is not the Confederacy and those who both oppose and support white supremacy who try to equate the two are simultaneously insulting the South and praising the Confederacy.
