Particularly today and in the last 3 weeks or so since the problems in South Carolina I am experiencing a large number of Confederate Flag Posts which I had never seen before. I am 68 and friends are mostly older like me. The posts are pro confederate flag posts and even go so far to say you are racist if you want to get rid of it. Another one about the Dukes of Hazard says they are doing it to make liberals mad. Have personally never cared much for the battle flag but the removal of the flag from a number of stores seems to have cause a backlash. Again I am caucasian have always thought it was symbol of racism not heritage or southern history.I had German relatives on my mother's side who served under Hitler but I dont have a swastiki. I did have forefather in Texas who served in Civil war but just dont feel or understand the heritage thing. There seem to be a growing backlash that is getting larger particulary July 4th posts featuring the confederate battle flag.
