[QUOTE="True Grit Farms, post: 1451435, member: 24694"] Controversy Edit For use of Confederate symbols in modern society and popular culture, see Modern display of the Confederate flag. An elongated (2:1 aspect ratio) version of the Battle Flag of the Army of Northern Virginia, and similar to The Second Confederate Navy Jack, in use from 1863 until 1865, although with the darker blue field of the Army's battle flag. Despite never having historically represented the Confederate States of America as a country, nor officially recognized as one of its national flags, the rectangular Second Confederate Navy Jack and the Battle Flag of Northern Virginia are now flag types commonly referred to as the Confederate Flag. They both have become a widely recognized symbol of the Southern United States.[41] It is also known as the rebel flag, Dixie flag, and Southern cross[42] and is often incorrectly referred to as the Stars and Bars.[43] The actual "Stars and Bars" is the first national flag, which used an entirely different design. As[b] of the early 21st century, the "rebel flag" has become a highly divisive symbol in the United States.[44][/b] This is according to Wikipedia, it didn't offend and wasn't a divisive symbol till the ring leaders on both sides abused the flag for personal gain.
