On the Today show, Glen McConnell destroyed the best that the NAACP could put forth in a nationally televised debate. The NAACP will not debate McConnell publicly because they know they will not win.
I have little doubt that NAACP would lose that debate because the NAACP would overstate their case and crudely apply the broad brush. But I’m not the one saying that the Confederate soldier was generally a slavery-obsessed monster. I’m just talking about the secessionists themselves, a manipulating political elite who often took great pains to avoid exertions and dangers.
