I think you missed the writer’s rather obtuse point. I believe he was saying that both the Civil War and the Vietnam War were divisive. One should not pull down a statue just because it marked a divisive period in our history.

No, I think you missed the point: the Vietnam War wasn't "divisive" - that's a fiction of the Left. We had a very effective and treasonous pro-enemy organization subverting everything to help the Communists to win. It was as "antiwar" as a hand grenade.

Once the Democrats and the media joined up, Hanoi had it made. The American people were the ones that provided the more than 2 million young men who served their country during that period.

Those clowns certainly didn't want the Vietnam Veteran's Memorial. Too bad.
