Remember that Dale also did not know what the confederate flag truly meant. He just thought it was a southern thing. And the minute someone told him how offensive it was to them, he went and immediately scraped it off his truck and apologized.

Dale wasn't no damn loser traitor.

Most people back then didn't give the Confederate flag a second thought.
