I know that's the case with the GA state flag. We get to have this same argument here every couple of years. All of the Red Neck types want to bring it back because of their "heritage" while the other side wants it done away with. The flag that the Red Neck types want was actually introduced in the 1950's here in GA as a protest against desegregation.
On every election day for the past four/five years, we've had "let us choose our flag!" signs on confederate-flag backgrounds lining the expressway, placed their during the night prior by some mystery gang of sign bandits.
I see people flying that thing high and proud at least once a week, back of trucks, license plates, shirts, etc. I'd believe it was heritage if it wasn't on display next to the "happiness is a Yankee going home" sign. Well buddy, I can't wait to make your day.
Do they still fly that thing on government buildings? I thought they finally left the 1800's a couple of years back?
At any rate, I agree with it. Hit 'em in the pocketbook.
