Baxley is a member of the Sons of Confederate Veterans

Baxley, the Republican, is a member of the Sons of Confederate Veterans who is opposing a monument to Union soldiers, who mostly were all Republicans. My Pennsylvania, Republican, Union Civil War veteran ancestors would be spinning in their graves.

Correct. They need to be show some class and reciprocity. There is no shortage of Confederate monuments on the battlefields at Gettysburg.

And, yes, I realize that Robert E. Lee's army acted with far more class and dignity in its invasion of Pennsylvania than Sherman's army did the following year in their invasion of Georgia.
