    No.

    No no no no no no no.

    There is ZERO excuse to fly it. ZERO.

    You can have pictures of it or plaques about its history or even a film of the troops carrying it but you DO NOT fly it in any capacity, especially in a government situation.

      I’m not disagreeing with that. They asked for context, I gave it. I think it was dumb as hell and disrespectful to fly it, but it still would be intentional blindness to not see that including the Confederate flag in a historical exhibit is different than some asshole proudly flying it because it reflects his shitty beliefs.
