Abraham Lincoln would be appaled...

Every now and then we see a Confederate flag displayed here in the south. It amazes me that there are some who are still 'fighting' the Civil War.

Thank you so much for visiting my blog; your comments are greatly appreciated. I apologize for not getting to all of your posts. I will visit as time permits.

It's about a heritage and remembering for many Southern folk, not about re-fighting the CW or overt racism -- of course there are crazies in many places, the South included.

@Viewfinder: I suppose you are correct, but sadly, many of those who display that flag are ones with gun racks in their trucks and seem to be actively rebellious.

Yeah... hard to understand for outsiders I guess.
