My son was in a Civil War reinactment unit while in college and a few years afterwards. He had uniforms for both sides (north and south) and his unit would portray which ever side an event needed. They were not playing a part to support a side or cause, they were just interested in history and an historical period. He researched his ancestors on both sides of the family who fought for opposite sides and wrote a book about them. And he is proud of all of them.

I am so sick of these perpetually offended pearl clutchers. They have absolutely nothing to do. They have no problems to solve. They constantly look for offense. It’s time to stop apologizing to them. I’m done tiptoeing around, hoping I don’t offend some fragile SJW. If we all stopped apologizing, maybe they find something else to do.

Every KA did this. My brother has photos just like it. They were professionally done. They had nothing to do with racism. Someone needs to tell these people to FO and then stand firm. The idea was the traditional values of ladies and gentlemen. Truly customs lost to generation snowflake.

Lee needs to man up. I’m sick and tired of our feckless Tennessee politicians. I even hate driving to the airport on Lamar Alexander Parkway! Corker. Now Lee is wussing out?

Did anyone bother looking at the actual photo of his "uniform"? That this was considered a Confederate uniform is laughable. BTW, he was 17 at the time at a Frat party at the University of Auburn. I'm not great at posting photos, but here's the link with photos: www.foxnews.com

The “black community” is a hate group.

The 5% who are not haters are excluded from the community

The fraternity’s founders listed Robert E. Lee’s chivalry and gentlemanly conduct as an inspiration. His holding up under military and political duress, in keeping with his choice not to serve the US Army and invade his own State.

Rather puzzling the demonrats who are screaming about “State’s Rights” in California, seeking to secede from the US to uphold their stated goals of independence, cultural and political Leftism/Marxism, are the Same Lefties who are trying to remove the cultural memory of the long past, in which State’s Rights featured dramatically (for reasons that most now would say are equally onerous). To ERASE history— in spite of the fact that many of Southern heritage have served the USA honorably and notably, helping achieve the country’s rise to a superpower and free people from Tyranny of world socialism, euro-monarchism, and world marxism by any other name. Devoted their lives and many lost them on the battlefield, to do so— with bravery and gallantry. Leadership of the World people forget. Names like George C. Marshall (VMI/Direct Commission to 2nd Lieut. US Army 1902), George S. Patton, Jr. (VMI/West Point, who was g-grandson of John Mercer Patton VA governor, and his g-g-grandmother was daughter of Hugh Mercer, his g-g-g-grandfather, and the Hero of the Revolutionary War Battle of Trenton, after the Crossing of the Delaware ). Both General Marshall and General Patton were Kappa Alpha.

What are they going to do— remove the ENTIRE US History of our great leaders and Generals....and sanitize the History to what? The majority suicided spawn of Karl Marx (who was a pig of person, sponging off his wealthy industrialist pal, Engels, without whom Marx would have remained in obscurity as yet another plaigerist copy cat of Hegel)?

For that IS the goal of all this— the destruction of the history huge success of the US in overcoming worldwide cynicism as the Great Experiment of Republican representative democracy, and thus the pinnacle of Western Civilization. To convert us to mud hut tribalists and neo socialist of the 8th Century.

Southern Gentlemen. Gentlemen of any persuasion these days is highly unusual. And God d@%n these absolute self righteous nobodies who have done nothing but, deconstruct, because it is so easy for morons.

Oh, NOES, an Old South party? What did it do, dignify both women and men with such things as chivalry, good manners, modesty and decency???

Lee is a miserable b*st*rd.

Cowardly fool. Glad to say I voted for an independent in the last TN election. I don’t trust born agains. No spine.
