I was curious about the Union Flag, and it was basically a flag of the U.S. with 36 stars, although regiments carried different flags and colors..
Also Confederate flag was changed once or twice, but of course, the one we are used to seeing, was the last design to represent the South during Civil War.
I think S.C. capitol did right thing; as for businesses, etc., they sure don't want to offend any possible consumer so they usually follow the politically correct resolution...
This reminds me of the Native Americans wanting sports leagues to remove any reference to the Indian in team logo.. this is nonsense IMO. It should be an honor to have your ethnicity, etc. represented in a sports team name (well most of them, anyway).
