Then I am heading to Gettysburg for a weekend trip.
Until the left wing loonies get in to tear them down.
Just wait till these anarchists try to take down the Confederate Monument at Arlington National Cemetery.
Only because they haven’t gotten any complaints - allegedly.
Let’s see what happens when they do.
“We’re going to rename Gettysburg to Emancipation Park and build a museum dedicated to black history so everything is kept in perspective.”
So the Confederate monuments in Gettysburg are staying put. Sad that such a statement even has to be issued.
I wonder... if had Hillary been elected president, would the Park Service still be saying that?
BLOW UP THE UNION MONUMENTS TOO! THOSE WERE SLAVE STATES TOO IN 1776!
Only until the next Democrat presidency..........see them while you can............
Perhaps it’ll be the future site of another record casualty conflict.
National park, if the ANTIFA try to pull off any antics, they will get arrested for certain.
When the history of the Confederacy is all wiped out, the Civil War will have to be erased because the enemy didn’t exist. If there was no enemy, then why did the two groups wearing blue clothes and gray clothes meet at Gettysburg? Were they there for a Sunday school picnic? There’s no logical explanation, so we better sell the land to developers. The world always needs another water park or Six Flags. Kumbaya, baby! Mustn’t microaggress little Muhammad in “history” class with knowledge about what those evil alt-right people once did on that site.
What about Grant Park in Chicago? U.S. Grant owned slaves longer than Robert E. Lee did.
“The national park has not received any complaints about the monuments, park spokesperson Katie Lawhon told USA Today.”
Upon finding this out BLM and other leftist organizations will commence a complaint blitz.
I had a dream. In it, Donald Trump was throwing Rachel MadCow off of little round top.
What monuments were erected almost 200 years after the fact?
Katie Lawton: “hey! Over here!”
No Civil War = No Reason for It
No Reason For It = No Slavery
No Slavery = No Subsequent Racism
No Subsequent Racism = No Inequality
No Inequality = No Reparations
No Reparations = No White Guilt
No White Guilt = No Welfare State
No Welfare State = You Gotta work to eat
...One thought just leads to another...
PS...I LOVE Gettysburg just the way it is. The only thing that should have been torn down was the “observation tower”, which it was.
According to the liberal elite haters at MSNBC this choice makes Lawhon a KKK sympathizer or maybe... wait for it... a Nazi....
If a feature at a National Park is more than 50 years old, then it is considered historic and protected. It would be greatly against Park regulations to remove those statues as they are now part of the Park landscape.
As an example, historians these days pretty much agree that the famous Bloody Pond at the Shiloh National Military Park did not exist as the time of battle. However, it has been a fixture on the Park’s land for many years, and it therefore cannot go away.
