S.C. Girl Protests Confederate Apparel Ban

The south is perhaps one of the most distinquished regions in the US. It was the heart of Slavery some 150 years ago and that spirit still lives on. One girl named Candice Hardwick marched too school today complaining about the fact that her school banned confederate clothing. She claims she wants to pay tribute to her ancestors who died fighting. Let's get one thing straight. There are plenty of ways you can do that without wearing a flag that symbolizes rascism and slavery. Wearing a confederate flag is like wearing a swatisika. That's all there is to it. The part that annoys me the most though is that an African-American by the name of H.K. Edgerton marched with her. Doesn't he understand that he's marching for slavery? I'll tell you one thing, the south may have a long distinquished history, but it's always been the most messed up place in America which says quite alot.
