If they used the same flags for France, Spain and Mexico during the time they ruled Texas I wouldn't mind the Confederate flag being used in that scenario.

Exactly. That's one of the few times it's actually appropriate.
Furthermore, it's a private company on private property. My main issue is when it's displayed in an honorary manner in public spaces, such as government buildings. It's offensive when people fly it on their house, but that's their business and they're perfectly allowed to have bad taste. --- ~Peaf~ ... Copied to Clipboard!

Six Flags St. Louis (formerly Six Flags Over Mid-America) flies Spain, France, England, the United States, and the state flags for Illinois and Missouri.
It looks like those three, the ones that are/were "Six Flags Over" parks, are the only ones that actually had any flags. Those are the parks that were originally built by Six Flags, the rest were existing parks that were rebranded as Six Flags later on and never actually had flags. --- SuperNiceDog didn't have to reconcile his name...

I'd like to see a study of if statues actually educate their area more than other areas. Maybe not compare Charlottesville to Juneau, but like to other cities in the same state seems fair.
I think there'd be a little advantage to statues teaching, just maybe not that much. --- Brought to you by GameFlux Free GameFAQs app on Google Play! ... Copied to Clipboard!
