I Had the Confederate Flag in My Home

The Confederate flag is under attack. A symbol of slavery and racism, the South Carolina legislature is finally removing it from its State House grounds while stores are busy removing the emblem from shelves.

Back when I was young and innocent, I played with the Confederate flag daily. My favourite show was The Dukes of Hazzard and I loved the General Lee, the Duke boys' car. Like many guys my age, I owned a toy replica of the General Lee, complete with Confederate flag on the roof.
