Confederate flag, yes or no?

This doesnt have to do with freedom of speech, it has to do with states proudly displaying something that has a negative impact at this time in history.

If people still want to fly their confederate flag, go ahead. But the majority of people who view the flag based on race relations will not want State or Govt entities to promote it.

The nazi flag originally had a positive meaning of german power, not so much after what ended up happening.

Take a look at the swastika, dont think anyones still waiving that around positively after WW2.

Swastika-

It is considered to be a sacred and auspicious symbol in Hinduism, Buddhism and Jainism.[3]

It has been used as a decorative element in various cultures since at least the Neolithic, and is found on a man's tunic depicted in a Roman mosaic at the Villa Romana del Casale in Sicily. It is known most widely as an important symbol long used in Indian religions, denoting "auspiciousness." It was adopted as such in pre-World War I-Europe and later, and most notably, by the Nazi Party and Nazi Germany prior to World War II. In many Western countries, the swastika has been stigmatized because of its use in Nazism.[4] It continues to be commonly used as a religious symbol in Hinduism and Buddhism.[3] - Wiki
