Face it: everybody is against fascism, and even the fascists take care to avoid using the word fascist to describe themselves. Violence even at the level of throwing projectiles is not free speech, let alone bombing or shooting.
As for the flag of the defense of slavery... blacks have a right to see it in the same light as Jews see a Nazi swastika or anti-communists see a hammer-and sickle device. I accept the use of the Confederate flag in re-enactments and at memorials for the Confederate dead. Other than that it is a disgrace as an assertion of contempt for freedom.
I will second the above post. The use of the Confederate flag by pseudo fascists, the KKK and other racists in modern displays is not to honor the heroic fallen, but to promote racism. Those who promote the use of the Confederate flag as a racist symbol are racists.
That this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom, and that government of the people, by the people, for the people shall not perish from the earth.
