Three of my direct descendants fought for the North in the civil war. However, I believe that it is legit for Southern States to fly the Confederate flag. In today's world, the Confederate flag is flown as a symbol of southern Heritage. I guess one could also say that the Confederate flag also commemorates the Men who fought and died on the other side- remember that the Confederate soldiers are technically American casualties as well. I don't really have a problem with the Confederate flag. To most southerners, it commemorates a southern heritage very different for that of the rest of the country, it does not state a desire to "split the union" once again. As Northerners, we don't quite grasp the pride involved with living in the south. Personally, I respect that "Southern Pride".
