If people had torn down Confederate Statues right AFTER the civil war it would have made sense. Well, some sense. Lincoln wanted the country to come together and he did NOT encourage hatred of Southerns...

Unlike today where every liberal jerkoff wants to heap hatred on Trump supporters.... I digress...

With Statues of Lenin and Stalin - the people those thugs harmed pulled down their statues - not descendants 100 years later staging a pity-party by proxy... It's different...

I don’t believe most such statues were erected until decades after the CW.
