Time to rename our Confederate Forts

you are a fucktard. And a coward, because you would not say that in real life to any republicans.

-- This is why I don't waste more time with you.

If you think that what he said to me was appropriate, you are part of the problem.


I will not be letting assholes like Rightwinger, say such shit about me and mine, and treat them with civility and respect they do not deserve.


Rhetoric like his, is tearing this country apart. People are dying because people like him like to spread hate and division.

Since when does slavery deserve civility and respect?

Your nonsensical excuse for your troll behavior is noted and dismissed.


You act like a troll, I will respond appropriately.

The idea that retarded monkeys like you should be allowed to throw shit around in a serious debate and be treated as though you were not the fucking assholes you are,


is how we got to where we are now, where the insanity of the Left is enshrined in law and practice to the point that people are dying in the streets.


So, fuck you.

I just can’t understand your nonstop defense of slavery

I don't understand how you can lie so much, without it ever occurring to you, that having to lie to make your points, means that you are the bad guy.

You are a lying whore. I have never defended slavery. You are a piece of shit coward, who would never say something like that, to any man's face.

Does Germany have a Camp Hitler?

They should...the same as we should have a Camp Faggot Leftard. We may not all like Faggot Leftards but they are a part of our nation, it's culture, and history.

it's a political decision and not up to them. he is in charge. that is not disrespect that is disagreement.


you are a moron. and an anti-american asshole.

Gen Pickett had his forces massacred attacking Union lines at Gettysburg

Why not honor Gen Hancock who was a better General and defended the UNION

Fort Hancock was in Texas on the Rio Grande.

FDR ran the Tuskegee Experiments, a Sadistic experiment to test the effect of untreated syphilis on blacks; refused to shake Jesse Owens hand; deported Japanese American to detention camps; and turned Jews back to Hitler.

Why is ANYTHING named after this vile fucking scumbag?

While the War of Northern Aggression was actually taking place, it was an open question as to whether states had a right to secede. That was the question that the war settled. The Confederates weren't "traitors" and they didn't "switch sides". They took a side, in this great controversy, and when the war was over , they reconciled themselves to the decision that was made on the battlefield.

The Confederacy was established to ensure that Slavery would be protected forever. 40 percent of its population was in bondage.

We need to ask......What have these men done to deserve such an honor?

AP HIll, Braxton Bragg, George Pickett, John Bell Hood......why should they be honored?

Trump opposes efforts to remove Confederate commanders' names from military bases

President Donald Trump said Wednesday he opposes any effort by the US military to rename the nearly one dozen major bases and installations that bear the names of Confederate military commanders.

Hood---youngest on both sides of the war to be given command of an army which he recklessness destroyed but I've been to Fort Hood---kinda fits the entire area. Politically connected in Kentucky (UNION sympathesizers) ..specifically to a cousin who was in the house of representatives

Pickett---was a buddy of Lincoln and other union a-holes who helped him along even though he was underserving and hated by the south for executing troops trying to desert from him before the war ended but illinios yankees loved him and protected him from being killed off for his war crimes against his own troops.

Braxton Bragg---hated by his troops, hated by fellow officers, usually lost battles and is considered one of the worse or the worse commander in the civil war--Cousin of Gen Edward Bragg on the UNION side so the union also loved and protected him

A.P Hill wasn't born till after the civil war so I don't understand the attacks on him or why is this base is lumped in with the others

Of the other 3, have you idiot libs not seen a pattern yet?

Geebus... the civil war was not about slavery but taxation. The north relied on the south for tax money due to the cotton exports that were heavily tariffed. 4 and count them 4 of the union states had slaves going into the civil war. Ending slavery was about trying to change the image of the north for having the war and seen as a way to punish the south for rebelling. The north was vindictive and had come very very close to losing the war---------so they were all about hurting the south afterwords

Except, we do. We have from way before you were born. So, what the fuck are you even talking about?

I mean, you're lying. That is obvious.


The question is, why?

EVERYONE CAN SEE THAT YOU ARE A FILTHY LIAR, SO WHAT IS YOUR ACTUAL POINT YOU PIECE OF SHIT?

10 military bases named after Confederate generals

President Donald Trump on Wednesday jumped into the debate over whether to change the names of 10 Army bases that are named for Confederate generals.

www.indystar.com

View attachment 348955

Its all part of history. The names remind us of the war we fought to preserve the union AND to end slavery, and basically, that war is over now. Picking at old wounds is a curious thing but its what political movements like to use as emotional fuel.
I don't go for it because its BS. It's better to face history than run away from it.

It's also a waste of resources to do all this when a. I imagine simply doing something like this is going to come with a price tag as well. I bet you some politician is getting some money through the backdoor on this one.

It is part of history
But why do we have such a twisted view of who we honor in history?
10 first named after Confederate Generals, one after Union Generals

Why Gen Lee and not General Grant?
Why Gen Bragg and Hood but not Gen Sherman and Sheridan?

Why? The Lost Cause movement

Gen Lee from a military standpoint was far far far better gen than Grant (which btw, the north regularly change their inept head gen around) Gen Sherman was EVIL....vindicative and crazy

This said--the bases are in the south so they chose southern military leaders----and not necessarily the ones that won against the north I might add.

Which is why the forts and the statues all focus on the military service of the veterans, not the policy of slaveholding.


It is like you just showed up on this planet and was giving a child's history book. Which you are failing to understand.


Except, you're an adult who has lived here his own life.


SO, you are just a fucking troll being a fucking asshole.

 

[Turtlesoup]

Lol democrats can’t get over that trump won, haha

WTF does that have to do with Confederate Generals?

Still to dense to get it---we name places after historically significant people to remind future generations of both the good and bad. If you weren't such a big mouth and would bother to go research, you would find why these southern general were chosen as a reminder, rememberance messages for future generations, and a WARNING. You also forget that the civil war was unlike all other wars---it was literally BROTHER against BROTHER, COUSIN AGAINST COUSIN, and FRIEND against FRIEND........

Their unique relationships and ties to one another affected both the war and the aftermath including naming of the forts and statues. If the idiotic dems would bother to learn history they would understand this.
