I haven't tried to have their flag banned. Maybe I should start. Continued attacks on the Confederate flag will prove how important this one symbol is to many of us. It will - it will set race relations back 50 years. Many blacks accuse all whites of being racist.
All races are, to a certain extent, racist.
I abhor violence and do not advocate racism and bigotry. But if the majority of whites were to become the racists they are accused of being, if only for a short time, the black race would appreciate how far we've come and would leave our symbols alone.
