I mean yeah, sure, anybody who hangs out the battle flag is probably just some kind of damnfool who hasn't got enough sense to pour piss out of a boot. A fair number of them are displaying it because it became the standard of the Klan after the War and they just hide behind the cover of claiming it has something to do with their heritage. But I do cut some slack for people who put out one of the official flags of the Confederacy. The first official flag was, after all, one of the seven flags that you see in seven flags over Texas displays. I never see second or third official flags outside of Civil War reenactment units.
