There is method to the madness of pulling down the statues. Physical reminders of history are being erased. History is already excised from the schools. History is n obstruction to total control. When the populace is finally quite unaware of anything that has gone before they have no sense or way to know what has worked and what has not worked in the past. They do not know how schemes of old that are identical to those proffered now worked out in the past.

For Utopia to be accepted the people must know no history. We are almost there. It is several decades since any history was taught in the schools, but children still ask, "Who is that man on the horse?" and Daddy or Mommy takes the child over to the plaque. Perhaps just identifying the statued hero will incite curiosity in the child and he will study on his own. Those statues have to come down and it will not end with the Civil War. ALL the statues must come down, eventually such statues as FDR and Wilson, even. Totalitarians of whatever stripe, Communist or Moslem have to erase history. History can have begun no earlier than the advent of the total state. So long as the people do not know what has gone before they do not know that they are in hell.

Next will be the crosses off the churches ....

If they succeed in getting statues taken down, there is no telling where it will lead.

Americans need to gather, and stand up to this nonsense!!!

So true. That reminds me I should probably order Ken Burns The Civil War on DVD before it mysteriously disappears from the NPB catalogue.
