The surrender, with honor, of the Army of Norther Virginia by General Robert E Lee should be celebrated. As should the hard work he and many of his fellow Confederates did, post war, in helping pick up the pieces and push the nation towards reconcilliation.

Most of our leaders post-war promoted reconciliation. I cannot stand by and watch these scalliwags tear down our amazing history. I’m from NYC and remember the horrible Liz Holtzman voting against restoring RE Lee’s citizenship. This is from a town that was totally COPPERHEAD! I should know, my Irish immigrant family were all draft dodgers and copperheads. We made up for it in WWI and WWII.

Do you think the air force missing nuke ( last year) that was destined for South Carolina was supposed to send a message? South Carolina led the secession parade and has taken a beating by the federal government ever since.

Some reconciliation, the Feds breathing down our backs again.
