Maybe we should ban the triggering names “Robert” and “Lee” altogether. And the letter “E”.

You know just HOW stupid this is..?

This is like the Khmer Rouge bumping off all people in the country who wore GLASSES:

"They represent the intellectual class and thus, enemies..."

We are THAT stupid now.

Great feeling, huh..?

In the SF rioting over the weekened they ran out of obvious nazis. You know what they did? They APPOINTED them.

Yes, THAT is how much greedy rioting momentum there was.

They appointed as nazi a guy WEARING A POLO SHIRT.

We ALL know how much the Third Reich loved polo shirts, right..?

IDIOCRACY IS HERE.

Their targets were always all the icons of this country. Soon it’ll be the Constitution.

The team is the Trojans and they named the mascot after Robert E. Lee's horse?

Wasn't there some Trojan horse they could have named it after?

The story as I understand it is the original USC horse ride was done as a one time stunt. The horse was already named Traveler before the ride. It became a regular thing at USC games and subsequent horses have kept the name. Now up to Traveler IX. General Lee’s horse’s name had two “l’s”, Traveller.

Robert E. Lee’s horse was named Traveller. The Trojan’s mascot is a soldier and he rides a horse who’s name is Traveler

How can the Star Spangled Banner be “Neo-Confederate”????

It was written by Francis Scott Key in 1814...I don’t think the Confederacy existed then....

And Salon.com tweeted last night that the United States has a neo-Confederate national anthem. Jefferson Morley, the writer at Salon, “contended that the United States adopted the ‘Star Spangled Banner’ as its national anthem due to an ascendant ‘neo-Confederate spirit’ during the decades after the Civil War. Morley played up that ‘observing Memorial Day and singing ‘The Star-Spangled Banner’ are uncontroversial patriotic gestures, yet there is no disputing that neo-Confederates developed these rituals.'”

"Jefferson Morley?"

O, the irony!
