it's disturbing to me that my generation has so much apathy and such a morally relativistic viewpoint.



What about the viewpoint dealing with celebrating oppressive symbols?

Why is a state flag or the confederate flag a complete disrespect of the large portion of the population. See this is what wrong with you people. You think that these flags mean something that they don't. The idea behind the Confederacy in general was for state rights. It had nothing to do with slavery but every damn liberal in the world would want you to think that. The flag represents States Rights, the damn Civil War was not about Slavery and some people really need to go back and read there history books. The north was getting there arse kicked until the French made them give up there slaves for support. This has nothing to do with slavery or racism and before you go off the hinges about the Klan they are small minor sect, that has no power whatsoever.


Too much historical fact here. Prepare for downvotes.

Slow down there chief. You are deviating from my point about the American flag. I said it is sad that someone would be apathetic about a school's student government voting to take down an American flag at a state school.
