Let's see, that flag was used for:

1. An army supporting the continuation of the enslavement of black peoples.

2. A group (KKK) who would ride out and lynch black people.

3. A very small number of people who fought Nazis.

4. Neo-nazis.

1 out of 4 isn't bad, I suppose...

I'm not defending the flag, just explaining that outrage over symbols simply makes the symbols more powerful. It was flown by some very good people at one point, and I think that bears mentioning, given the context.
