the stars and bars with being pro-slavery
Well, seeing as how the "stars and bars" aren't being discussed at all, by anyone, in any of these public outcries for justice, why don't we just leave it out of this?

The current state flag of Mississippi features the Confederate battle flag in the upper left corner. The Mississippi flag has been at the center of this discussion for years before the shooting because of its association with the pro-slavery confederacy.
This whole flag thing didn't just become an issue when some wackjob tragically killed some churchgoers. It has raged on for years in Mississippi, and now USC is dealing with a version of it. Symbols matter.
