To southern people (me included) it is a very important part of your heritage. The Confederates stood up for what they believed in and even though they lost the war they fought courageously for their way of life. I agree. Many Southerners have ancestors who died in the war. They want to remember the sacrifices of their family but that does not mean they continue to support the same philosophy of their ancestors. As a southerner ,whose ancestors were in the CSA, I can say those people who do still do support their ancestors philosophy (of slavery) are dead wrong.
