[QUOTE="Joe, post: 414026, member: 9"] Well, the BLM/ANTIFA should leave Confederate statues/heritage alone. While I think it may be necessary to cast it in a different light/context, it should be allowed to remain. I'm not really offended by the Confederate Flag either, tho I understand why some minorities might be. No one sporting the Confederate flag at least in Canada has ever been a public danger which I am aware of. At some point, both sides have to accept each other and their existence. BLM/ANTIFA have to accept that history did happen. Tearing down somebody's heritage isn't going to solve anything. Whether people like to admit it or not, the Confederacy and it symbols are somebody's heritage. However I agree that a symbol such as the Confederate flag should never be used to promote violence. And it if its, then they ought to be called out on it, and perhaps for some functions it should be prohibited. There's too much shaming these days. [/QUOTE]
