Putting Japanese Americans in concentration camps would fit the bill.

Democrats on the House Appropriations Committee on Monday released a draft of a funding bill that includes a provision to remove statues and busts of those who served the Confederacy or have "unambiguous records of racial intolerance" from the U.S. Capitol, setting up a potential fight over the issue as President Trump emphasizes preserving such tributes in at least some circumstances.
The bill, which provides more than $4 billion to fund the legislative branch as part of the fiscal year that begins in October, is almost certain not to pass in its current form due to how Congress has run its appropriations process in recent years. But it could serve as a template for continuing resolutions that keep the government running, and the statue-removal provision could make its way into that legislation.
"The bill includes language directing the Architect of the Capitol to remove statues or busts in the U.S. Capitol that represent figures who participated in the Confederate Army or government, as well as the statues of individuals with unambiguous records of racial intolerance, Charles Aycock, John C. Calhoun, and James Paul Clarke, and the bust of Roger B. Taney," an online summary of the bill reads.

The war is over.
155 years ago.
Get over it, Dems.
You lost....................
Slavery was imported from Africa.
People captured in tribal wars there or after committing serious crimes in Africa might have been killed if not sold off as slaves.
So they’ll remove more Democrat statues from the Capitol?
SWEET!!!
“Slavery was imported from Africa” by tyrants across the sea.
Well of course it does.
Confederate statues are the #1 problem in America today.
Nothing else matters.
Black lives matter!..................apparently not to blacks, though............
Looks like they're having better luck this time around.
I say remove all statues, street signs, buildings, etc. representing ANY politician.
Very few deserve to have ANYTHING named after them. Most have been nothing but parasites anyway. F them!
Putting Japanese Americans in concentration camps would fit the bill.
They're coming for you, FDR, and your little dog too.
The Democrats want to “Hide Their Heroes”
Does it include Robert “KKK” Byrd?
Whatever happened to line-item veto?
Flying the Confederate Battle flag is a free speech issue.
If porn is free speech, then flying that flag is also.
The dumb MOFO’s havent a clue. Start flying the stars and bars then. They would not know.
Slavery started in the 13 Colonies.
At the time of the Civil War....Union Soldiers owned ~315,000 slaves.
Confederate Soldiers owned ~200,000.
Does the resolution call for the abolition of the Democrat Party and an apology for its existence?
Panic is setting in. The demon rats are now openly pandering to the hate they have generated in many, too many, black people, hoping to keep them on the dnc vote planataion for the coming election. And sadly, blck people do not realize it was the demon rats who did not want slavery to end and opposed the equal rights legislation. The KKK was created by democrats! But blacks will never make the connections and will remain manipulated to the bitter end.
Slavery may have existed in the 13 colonies but it certainly didn't start there.
