Maybe it's because the confederate flag was flown over millions of deaths and a system of oppression, while the LGBT flag has only been linked to two so far. I don't agree any flag should be banned, but this line of logic is just retarded.
Remember that the North also had slavery - the confederate flag and the union jack could both equally represent slavery, even though neither really do.

Are you saying that a flag was responsible for something?

Ah fuck, my bad. I meant it was used in the name of opression, war, etc. Not that a flag singlehandendly did all those thing.
