    I’m kind of surprised you don’t know the answer to the question you asked. It would be the same as asking why a Jewish person would be offended if you had a tattoo of a Nazi flag. The rebel flag was symbolic of the slavery system created and maintained by Southerners before the Civil War. The rebels fought to maintain that system of slavery. They lost. Flying and honoring and tattooing that flag could be and is interpreted to mean that you still believe in the things represented by the South, including slavery. Most people who still feel that way are members of the Aryan brotherhood or other right-wing violent organizations. So that would make you scary to black folks, right?
