I agree that it should not be displayed or flown in any government office considering that it is not our National flag nor one belonging to any of our states. But I think it's dumb to prohibit it being sold for personal use. If you go down south they are displayed everywhere, yeah, I think it's tacky and outdated but it's a cultural thing and Southern people are proud of it. I don't think that it is always tied directly to racism, but unfortunately many people associate it with such and many people use it for that exact purpose.
