[quote=Anonymous]hmm- werent the confederates committing treason against the 'United' States of America, i though the United States won, the Union is just an old fashioned word to say United isn't it? Why would the United States Government allow someone to work for them who supported a treasonous band of mercenaries/militiamen who killed the soldiers of its government ?

I am actually asking- I'm a second gen. immigrant, I understand that we have free speech and so i can wave around an ISIS flag if i want to, privately- but as an employee of the government? Ive never understood this, why aren't the confederates considered enemies of the United States anymore? History buffs- please fill me in. i know that during Reconstruction the South was occupied and stuff but then what happened? how did it become ok for Virginia to name roads after people who would've been at least imprisoned today if they did what they did (generals in the army defecting to another nation and actively killing United States Soldiers) which is what Robert E. Lee did/Jackson did.  Is this an extension of free speech protections?[/quote]
