I disagree with your unfortunate opinion. It is easy to say that the rebel flag is nothing more than a sign of your home, and it is for you, but not for Blacks who reside in the South. For example, how would you like to go to court with a black judge who displays the Black Panther Flag? Furthermore, the rebel flag was added to the state flag of Georgia in this century to send a message that the people in power (Whites) would never give in to integration, which included such places as hotels. I hope you are able to look at your opinion objectively, and hopefully you will be able to put yourself in another person's shoes.
