What I said is no different than those with religious beliefs who find it abhorrent to have to pay for contraceptive coverage in their insurance.Contraception not abortion.You equate a statue with people being forced to work to support abortion?

CONSPIRACY TO ASSASSINATE LINCOLN!!!Mary Surratt, convicted of treason and hanged in 1865You can't really call it treason when the issue of whether a sovereign state's membership in the Union is voluntary was still an undecided legal issue.Why would we keep monuments to people who committed treason.
And, given that no one was tried or convicted of treason, you can't really say they were guilty of treason.

Take that with a grain of salt. Regardless, some people have conscientious objections to contraception and should not be forced to subsidize personal lifestyle choices.What I said is no different than those with religious beliefs who find it abhorrent to have to pay for contraceptive coverage in their insurance.Contraception not abortion.You equate a statue with people being forced to work to support abortion?

If it was the John Muir club, I would support a name change.Don't force me to use the Autobahns and making the trains run on time argument.He was instrumental in the founding of our National Parks on the plus side.
WTF??That wasn’t the question.John Muir was openly rascist about indigenous Indians and Blacks.
Does this mean that we purge all of his statues and dissolve the Sierra Club that he founded?
If it was the John Muir club, I would support a name change.
Bad people can do good things, and good people can do bad things. The good things should endure, but with a change of name if necessary.
If racist Woodrow Wilson won WW I, I don't feel we should reverse that and pay reparations to Germany.

They also violated a constitutional treaty, and killed thousands on the trail of tears.Before you jump that shark, it should be noted the our Federal Gov't sent Federal Agents called 'Buffalo Soldiers' in to Yosemite to protect it from civilized encroachment so it could become a National Park.
U.S. History, for better or worse makes America unique and our freedom worth preserving!
It’s nice to know everything is going so well politicians have nothing better to worry about then if statues of men who have been dead anywhere from 150 to 200 plus years should be removed.
