Then those people are making the error of imbuing a symbol with an inherent meaning. I contend no such thing exists.Yeah it's still a racist symbol even if the person flying it claims they are not racist. It's like an atheist having crucifixes and crosses in his yard and saying "to me it doesn't represent God and Christianity". They are still symbols of Christianity even if it doesn't seem that way to you. It doesn't make sense, it's illogical to fly symbols of something if you don't believe in or agree with what those symbols represent. It makes a person look crazy. An atheist would look crazy having crosses and crucifixes in their yard yet saying they are atheist and don't believe in Christianity and those symbols don't mean Christianity to them. You would think deep down that atheist really believes in God and is lying to himself.... And even you claim it doesn't represent that to you, still to most people who see crosses and crucifixes, it represents God or Christianity just like no matter how much you try to say that confederate rag doesn't mean the same to you, to most people that's what it represents.
