The Trump administration has moved forward with its effort to return a controversial Confederate statue to Arlington National Cemetery next year. The Office of Army Cemeteries submitted final plans to the U.S. Commission of Fine Arts on Thursday to return the Confederate Memorial to a small section of the cemetery where more than 400 Confederate soldiers were reinterred in the early 1900s.

Erasing history just ain’t cool. As ugly as it may be.
What about all of the other statues that were removed by leftist radical commies? Bring ‘em back!
The Confederates took up arms against the Union. But so did the various Indian tribes. We respect Sitting Bull, Crazy Horse, etc.
And so we should respect the Confederates.
Excellent!!!
The Dems preached hate...and destroying everything Confederate became a goal. Just the opposite of what our forefathers did under reconciliation. Those were someone’s sons, too.
The Confederacy was part of our history, as was slavery. Those things made us the country we are today. They are part of us.
I have always felt that many of the negative things I have done in my life or been subjected to have, in the end, made me a better person. Without them I wouldn’t be the same person. Those things things are part of me.
And our military fighting spirit and heritage owes much to those men from the Confederacy.
And I say all this as a Yankee...
Awesome. To all the Muzzies and other America-hating azhos. If you don’t like it leave. Move to Gaza. Now let’s get the Texas Rangers back up.
Good!
I grew up in the former Confederate Territory of Arizona, and was proud of that history, which did not include slavery!
“Controversial” because the leftist lunatics fixed on monument removal as their trumped up crusade of the day. Never controversial among normal people
The mulsim takeover will be blowing up all these statues anyway.

There’s nothing controversial about it.
I’d surround it with a fence with plenty of space to put barbed wire around it. People will think twice before climbing, crawling, and defacing. Imagine motion detector tear gas being released with someone crawling around in the stuff.
I don’t think we’re in danger of too much damage in the future. These protesters attention spans are short. They come and go like boners.
Come on, man.....you know the difference!
Uncle Bob once was Superintendent of Hudson High. It would be pretty Stallinistic to photoshop him out of its history.
“return the Confederate Memorial.” Good plan. Why was it removed? Oh yeah, unreasonable people were looking for a scapegoat.
Harvard still insists that Mem Hall will not honor the 64 Harvard men who died in the war.
