Not good to honor either slavers . . . ."

So, I guess George Washington is off your personal list, huh? Thomas Jefferson? James Madison? Patrick Henry?

Personally, I think "honoring" mortal men in this fashion, any men, borders on idolatry anyway, and so would prefer another course of action. But in that I'm aware that mine is a minority view in this regard, my default fallback position is that people in a given community should honor those whom they believe are worthy of honor, and that those outside of those communities should, you know, mind their own effin' business.

At the same time, I'm well aware that there are plenty of self-identifying "conservatives" who will never leave well enough alone, who will although pursue their own ideological and/or cultural agenda, who will always seek to impose their worldview on everybody else. Indistinguishable from Leftists.
