As a southerner I can actually sympathize with the communists in this one case. Why tear down your history? Let it be a lesson for generations.

Never Remember: Searching for Stalin's Gulags in Putin's Russia

They journey from Moscow to Sandarmokh, a forested site of mass executions during Stalin's Great Terror; to the only Gulag camp turned into a museum, outside of the city of Perm in the Urals; and to Kolyma, where prisoners worked in deadly mines in the remote reaches of the Far East. They find that in Vladimir Putin's Russia, where Stalin is remembered as a great leader, Soviet terror has not been forgotten: it was never remembered in the first place.

Poor general Robert E. Lee.

Radical liberals claim he should have been hanged, drawn and quartered.

A rare voice of sanity. Rewriting history is a first sign of Orwellian society.
You shouldn’t be a Communist to be against statue demolition.
