I’m with you 100 percent. I don’t want those monuments removed or street names changed either, for the reasons you stated. I think it is WRONG to erase our history, regardless of whether that history is good, bad, or indifferent. My feelings on the matter have nothing to do with race, however. I stand up for ideas and principles. I don’t stand up for skin color, and it riles me when I see these cretins talk about “standing up for the white race”, playing right into the liberal media’s narrative about conservatives. They may claim to be conservatives, but they’re kindred spirits with those on the left who dedicate themselves to dividing this country based upon race, class, gender, etc.
