    Default Civil War museum gets rid of Confederate flag on new logo

    A Civil War museum in Frederick, Maryland, that used to have a Confederate flag on its logo ditched the controversial symbol in a new logo that was unveiled Wednesday.

    The two affiliated museums, which now also have the new logo, include the Clara Barton Missing Soldiers Office in D.C. and the Pry House Field Hospital Museum in Keedysville, Maryland.

    Why do we need a museum that glorifies the Civil War in the first place?

    But not everyone does. Some take it as a cause to glorify. Any interest in history inherently involves a desire to recreate it.

    There's nothing controversial about it. Don't confuse you being triggered when seeing it as controversy. It's because you're a pussy.

    Apparently you lefties haven't learned the lesson from an overbearing federal government that abuses its authority.

    I've offered many of you triggered pussies the opportunity to try and take down my flags of the Confederacy. None of you have had the guts to try.

    is that what it does? When I was at Antietam or Gettysburg i was focused on the battle.
    Last thing I was think was "how glorious this was" (more like tragically terrible)

    Good for the museum.

    So something directly a part of the Civil War shouldn't be in a CIVIL WAR museum? Interesting how you pussies can so easily be triggered. I bet you shit your pants any time you see that symbol.

    Good. Tear that stupid flag down and burn it any chance you can get.

    The Confederate Flag is a virtue signal for racists. You know how I know that? Because racists in Europe fly it.
