They were all slave owners (or "slavers," as the poster I was responding to termed it).

And, anyway, my ultimate point remains: if the people of a given community (in this case, Shenandoah County, Virginia) wish to name their public schools after men who those in the community hold in esteem, I don't see why that should be of concern to, much less the business of, those outside that community.

But I guess those who consider themselves "conservatives" are susceptible to the same failing that manifests among those on the Left, namely, the overarching desire to tell people not only how they must live but, also, how they must think. If that's what this country stands for today, well, reason enough to reject it, if you ask me.
