Yes it is.
It is very black and white.
To argue that the Confederate Flag means anything other than the long, sordid history of the flag (history you said deserves to be on display in a museum setting), is to erase the history of that flag.
So you are calling it "erasing history" if the flag is ripped down, but you don't say those who wave it about aren't erasing the history of the flag when you claim it "means" something different to them. Could it be that they are being disingenuous with you, FLash, when they say that the flag represents something else? Like lying to you so they have an excuse to wave something of which they are fully cognizant and aware of its historical context?
Or are you of the mindset that people don't bullshit and lie?
