        Can you show me which president was in the confederacy? I know some were slave holders but which was a traitor that fought against America?

        Horror! Who does the country and state belong to? A few or many? Is this what the general public wants? What Georgians want?

        No. Most of us don't care about the rebel flag or any 200yr old rationale for the Civil War. But we are proud of our southern heritage.

        Simple people of the South joined the Confederate Army to defend their home. War wasn't their decision - it was forced upon them.

        The monument at Stone Mountain is a war memorial. It's not about racism, it's about the massive loss of life.

        Stone Mt is USED TO INCITE RACISM. The Confederate generals riding proudly on their horses is NOT about the huge loss of life!

        By your logic, we should remove the 9/11 Memorial because it stirs up hatred for Muslims.
