There are no concrete meanings or ideas that can be attached to symbols.

The signifigance or meaning that an individual attaches to a symbol is an entirely personal choice and does not actually reflect anything inherent about the symbol itself.

Therefore, the Confederate flag can both be a positive or negative symbol at the same time.

Anyone who takes offense to it can simply alter the ideas that they attach to it.

I do not under the controversy surrounding this symbol.  It literally baffles me everytime someone tries to talk about it.
