    Racism under the guise of "heritage."

    Not that the heritage argument holds much water anyway. All those people say that their grandparents saluted the confederate flag, but they forget which flag their great-grandparents saluted.

    The Confederate Naval Flag was never an official flag of the Confederacy.  That disgraced rag has been adopted by hate groups such as the KKK, Aryan Nation, and other Neo Nazi groups and has no legitimacy.  THIS is the first adopted flag of the CSA, the "First National" or the "Stars and Bars".  The "Second National" and "Third National" were temporarily approved for use in battle because the "Stars and Bars" was often confused with the "Stars and Stripes" in the heat of battle, but the "Bonnie Blue Flag" saw far more use in battle than the Naval flag.
