i agree 100%
to me, it's just another symbol of southern heritage, and has some real meaning to it. i love watching and reading stuff on how the confederate army did things! it sucks having a confederate cemetary and then having groups raise so much hell on whether or not they should be allowed to have confederate flags on the graves of flying at the entrance!
