"I think it kind of signifies something monumental,"

Is that supposed to be some kind of pun?

I am going to predict a trend, especially throughout the south. More families will name their kids after confederate leaders, Stonewall, Nathan, Lee, and so on, to keep the traditions alive. You can tear down statues but let’ see libs forbid the naming of kids.

Awhile back I was reading about a famous American, so famous that there are many public statues of him. And there are streets named after him. But he thought that homosexuality was a mental disorder. And he said that homosexuals should go see a psychiatrist.

I wonder if the gays will demand that his statues come down.

Oh, I almost forgot. That famous American was Martin Luther King.

I wish there was a “place” these could be sent to so they could be (1) preserved and (2) enjoyed by real people.

Think it will stop with Southern history? Guess again. The cultural marxists and Left Wing hate groups like the SPLC headed by pervert Morris Deas will move on to other parts of history next. They’re already trying to demonize Thomas Jefferson.

Washington, Madison, Patrick Henry, George Mason, etc were slaveowners too. Ben Franklin made a lot of money selling ad space in his papers for slavetrading, escaped salves etc. John Adams was only too happy to try to press the Brits to return escaped slaves who sided with the crown. John Hancock? He was the largest slave trader in New England. Many many businesses that got their start in New England (not to mention Ivy League universities) got their seed money from slave trading. That’s what’s coming next. You have been warned.

A country without a history is not a country.

“We’ll have Southern uniforms there, not Union uniforms.”

Will they have the dress Jefferson Davis was wearing when he was captured?

110 out of 1,100+, and almost all of them in big, blue cities, not towns or rural areas. Whatever.

Really surprised the AP is still on this.

After the Charleston shooting, photos surfaced of Roof posing with the Confederate battle flag, helping to change the national dialogue.

The media has repeated this tired line so many times they consider it to be the gospel truth now. I swear I've read this exact thing, slightly reworded, fifty times in fifty different articles.

It'd be interesting to know how much of the removal activity was in June-August of 2015 and like August-September 2017. It seems those moments were when local Democratic politicians (city councils, mayors) in various blue cities started falling all over themselves to pander in the midst of a media-manufactured flavor of the month "outrage."

Someone should open up a private confederate museum and give them all a home. Charge liberals extra to come and see ‘em.

Since they’ve removed the statues in Baltimore there have been no murders, no crime, the sun shines every day, poverty is a thing of the past and high school graduation rates are 100%.

Absolutely disgusting. An effort to redivide us, and destroy any American future.

Reconstruction & Creating Hate In America Today

Leftist War On Social Continuity

Compulsion For Uniformity

By contrast, see how Booker T. Washington, the great Black educator saw Southern culture:

They are removing all of those except for the one of the KKK recruiter and Hillarys mentor which as you can see here, is being cleaned by a black man while they statue seems to be saying "Git down tha boy, ye missed a spot".

And because of these removals, black men by the hundreds of thousands are now refusing to impregnate any women who are not their wives, and black women are refusing to abort any of their illegitimate offspring, and every black household will have legally married fathers and mothers throughout our great country.

Incredible how those removals have changed the black communities.

I’ve always said that Confederate monuments are a Democrat issue, for Democrats to decide. I can see that older Democrats might want to remember the past, with all its blemishes, while younger Democrats might want to move on and forget the past. They might even want to rewrite the past, and with their past, who can blame them?

That’s the basis for Trump’s remark that there might be good people, good Democrats, on both sides of the issue. But in my view its strictly a Democrat issue, something they have to come to terms with. I don’t intend to help them forget their past, nor will I let them blame me for it. Its their laundry.

when a shooting at a black church in South Carolina energized a movement against such memorials.

Such typical leftist BS. One event has NOTHING to do with the other. The left always finds the excuse to move forward with things that they always wanted to do. It's called never wasting the crisis.
