I don't think those folks were killed because of a flag.

Some of the values which some of the people associate with the flag had a lot to do with it.  Of course, making the flag go away won't kill the values, but flaunting the values doesn't help.
I think an association with a burning cross or a Nazi flag had more to with it than the Confederate flag myself. Making a flag go away and insulting southerners for being southerners ain't going to kill/eliminate the people who are willing to wade through a black church shooting or change the negative views that a majority of southerners and a large chunk of northerners have of blues/liberals either. If you can handle living with radical Muslims blowing up you're marathon and a Radical Muslim wading through American nightclub or a social gathering shooting without any reservations and concerns, you should be able to handle someone wading through a black church shooting without any reservations and concerns too. You're right, values or the lack of values as they pertain to certain people or groups of people as I see it, has something to do with it.
