I have not seen any flag of the Confederacy flying on TN state property.

It is, of course, displayed at the Shiloh and Lookout Mountain battlefields. Which is a proper setting.

But I see it all the time flying on private property in front of body shops, barbecue stands, taverns, trailers and what not.

Yeah, there are plenty at the Civil War sites. I know there's a bust of Nathan Bedford Forrest in the Capitol building. Also numerous statues all over the states, but I don't see a problem recognizing history.
