Way more than 1 out of 100 people I know are racist. I know them. I hear it. I see it. I have distanced myself from all of them. But my original comment was confederate flag wavers are racist. Not people in general. That is 100 out of 100. So go on believing that most of the people waving confederate flags around are not racist. Lol. Its your prerogative. Mine is that all people waving confederate flags around are. As i stated prior maybe they are oblivious to what that flag standa for. Maybe they are the ones who need to educate themselves and rethink what it is they are waving around. If you want to call me jaded for that go ahead. I call myself aware.

This will be my last post on the subject. Just a reminder to how I answered the question:

Do I think every single American that has a confederate flag is hateful/racist? No

Do I think there are a lot of racists that use the confederate flag to show their racism? Yes

Didn't say most people that waived them weren't racist, just said not all of them are.

Well don’t leave out the fact that i am jaded because i think if you wave a confederate flag around you are racist, or that you think one percent of the worlds population is racist. Those are pretty important statements in regards to the topic at hand. Enjoy your weekend and thank you for posting during normal business hours. Lol.

Actually got to agree with you (with limited exceptions - ie reenactors) almost everyone that waives a confederate flag around nowadays are likely racists.
