The statue is an anachronism. Ive seen it. Should have been moved after
The war way over a hundred years ago along with the ignorant yankee hatred that remains.
It can be moved to a cemetery. The timing is bad with all of the America hating going on.
I don't know where you get the ‘yankee hatred’ bit although there is plenty of reason for it anywhere the Union army went in the deep South and I have family memories to support this. In passing these statues north and South were normally erected by public subscription. Not by use of taxpayer dollars.
Those of this wretched set of young fools that have Confederate ancestry have specifically dishonored their ancestors by this vote. I don't know how yankees see it, but in the South dishonoring one’s ancestors is right up there with dishonoring ones parents or sisters being about the worse thing one can do absent sexual crimes.
If you are a yankee stop butting in to our business, if you are from the South your words and attitudes are disgraceful.
The statue is a reminder that the country was a REPUBLIC and since leftist state-ist thugs want a democracy they need to tear it down. So called Conservatives go along with this re writing of history. Shame shame shame.
