After World War II and the defeat of the Third Reich, which survived nearly three times longer than the Confederate States of America, the insignia and flags of Nazism were banned. They were stripped from uniforms, detonated off the facades of buildings, and eventually deemed a violation of Germany's criminal code as symbols of an unconstitutional organization.
The Civil War may have put slavery to an end, but as the shooting in Charleston made clear, cultures of hatred remain. The Confederate battle flag, was revived almost a century after the war by Southern groups opposed to efforts toward desegregation. Its a symbol of hate and treason and should not be legally flown and/or displayed. Especially in or on government buildings excluding museums.
