Your comment implies that half the people in the US fly that flag and that everyone who flies the flag is a racist and that the fact that so many people fly it hasn't made it lose much of its meaning.

Your comment makes a lot of assumptions and appears to me to be painting half the country (probably the south) as racists. This is a bigoted narrow minded attitude.

Even Kanye West has a line of clothing with the confederate flag, do you think he's part of the KKK?
