Me thinks that many posters really do not understand the reason why this flag needs to be sent to sent into a museum.

Yes, during the Civil War this flag was the battle flag of the Army of Northern Virginia. But after the war these flags were put away. Even the Great Robert E Lee was against the flying of this flag.

These flags were not seen in public again until the day that the Gov of the State of Alabama George Wallace stood in the school house door to deny 2 black students entrance into the University of Alabama on June 11, 1963.

On that same day the confederate flag began to fly over the state capitol.

This flag is NOT about heritage but of hate….

No one is coming after the America flag it is ridiculous to think that…just a false comparison on some right wing website or news outlet.
