I know the confederate flag isn't being banned from private use, but even flag companies are discontinuing production of it. With that, how does a private citizen purchase one?

Also, are they discontinuing the German flag production of the SS?

The confederate flag is a part of our history, a bad history. However what is next? Statues of Robert E. Lee. Being removed?

Are we trying to rewrite history. I don't believe The flag companies have discontinued production of the Nazi Flag. Both are flags of hate and suffering, but should they disappear? They are part of history. What's next, book burning? Also, some of you may assume I'm racist but I'm not. I'm just trying to understand.

I'm not assuming you are racist but I am assuming you have an agenda. I'm quite certain you will be able to find a confederate flag somewhere. China maybe? Why do you ask what's next?

Again, just google some of your questions and you will find the answers. No need to ask her UNLESS you want to be divisive and create a discussion about freedom of speech so that you can continue to "ask questions" to promote your point of view which is obvious. Not gonna play that game with you.
