The Confederate flag is part of South Carolina's history. It no longer flies above the capitol building, but is attached to a memorial for Confederate soldiers, many of whom were never slave owners.

This part of the South's history is painful, the root cause of the Civil War was endemic racism and oppression - but that doesn't mean that we ignore the history. The flag is not flying over a Government building anymore, it's part of a historical memorial.

Get the flag removed because it wasn't actually the flag flown over the South Carolina regiment, not because you want to censor history.
