Wardaddy,

Life long Georgian here. I have always wondered why we as Republicans would fight over statues put up by Democrats in the early 1900’s? Why would we fight about a flag that Democrats fought under? No Republican fought for that flag. Why are we supposed to now? Because Democrats want to purge their own past?

I had a GA legislator say to me in 2018 that he had a problem with Democrats taking down the statues. I replied, “why? They put them up. Just make sure people know that as they take them down”

Just another perspective.

Btw. Great looking family on your page.

What are you people going to say when they come after Monticello and the Jefferson Memorial?

“Well! It doesn’t matter anyway because he was a slaveholder and he created the Democratic Party!”
