Whenever I make a picture frame and measure the cross differences between corners I like to believe that is what the confederate flag originally stood for. Carpentry. But I know that is not what it stood for. My interpretation is much more beautiful than the horror of slavery that it represents!
That bloody center cross is symbolic of a Yankee or slave covering his wounds inflicted by a racist slave master.
And anyone who needed slaves was someone that could not support a wife and children on his own!
