Lotta bronze there.
Just another ordinary day in Joe Biden’s America.
Meth head metal thieves.
Was he a Confederate War hero?
Can’t we all just get along ?
Their first album was great!
My thoughts, exactly! Between the ignorant defacing every monument, and the feds turning on the border states like jack booted thugs—— you may come to appreciate how the American south felt before they fired on Sumpter.

He was also court-martialed for refusing to ride in the back of the bus on an Army base in the South during the War. A panel of white officers exonerated him.

All reminders of the Civil War must be removed! Just ask Nikki.
