Black folks were not America's enemy, they denigrated and humiliated them....When are they going to erect monuments to honor the men on the losing side of the Revolutionary War....they were once our brothers, our countrymen.....when I say!!!!

That is a very American monument.
Americans are not the type of people that need to denigrate or humiliate their enemies, indeed, are quite capable of respecting people, even former foes.
and you still keep avoiding my question...can you point me to a government court-house, state college, public park -- where there is a statue of Cornwallis, or any opposing general from any war we fought?
No, you can't
The Statue just pulled down wasn't for a general, but an anonymous confederate solider.
Man, your spinning is getting so bad i can feel the breeze through my monitor.
