Reply to comment by Rannrann123 in Since MA is gonna redesign its state flag, here is a simulation of my proposal for the new one waving in the wind by Rannrann123
The main problem is the indian being executed by a cavalryman, but also the motto "By the Sword, we seek peace". Both are in reference to King Philips War, where Western MA was genocided by the Wampanoag until they thenselves were defeated. However, both were put on the flag for the Civil War, with the implication that the Confederates would meet the same fate.
Side note: the indian on the cover is Metacom/King Phillip himself, and is historically accurate
