I now understand that it wasn't some symbolic racist gesture that was aimed at me, but I'm not crazy and I wasn't making things up. My reaction at the time was totally understandable, so get all the way off my back about this." Which I think is right - I would probably have jumped to the same conclusion in his shoes.
How did Bubba Watson get dragged into this? He was getting rid of confederate flags off the General Lee before it was the thing to do!
