Political correctness is destroying our culture and, unfortunately, many on FR are as politically correct on the Confederacy as the most left wing northeast yankee.

Thanks for your reply.

I hear you on that

I am from England , lived in the north for a bit, escaped and now live south though this place is being invaded .

I was amazed that so many from the north east and north maybe were clueless about their own history.
I move south and virtually every middle to older aged person knows their history.

I am now with the SVC in my town and one reason why I joined was because I was disgusted how certain veterans are ignored or named badly.

The final straw was a visit to Fredricksburg where the confederate graveyard was a mess and not looked after yet the union/federal one was landscaped very nice .

Now I teach my kids history instead of waiting for a school teacher as those teachers usually avoid or distort the subject
