What a lot of northerners and liberals don't understand, is that to many who grew up in the south, tearing down these statues and removing the Confederate Flag is not much different than if Liberals wanting to tear down the Vietnam Memorial, because it was a symbol of American Aggression against the Vietnamese, and represents White Racism against Anything Asian.....

Wanting to remove the American Flag for the same reason, because it represents American Aggression and Racism to anyone in the world that isn't White Caucasians...

To many southerners, the Confederate Flag is as sacred as the American Flag.. it represents heritage and pride.. not racism and the desire to destroy anything that isn't White....

but too many people beyond the south's borders just don't seem to get that...
