Isn't it strange how it seems when we were all small and our parents or parent would take kids out they always play on those statues. I mean they could be found at almost any park , some sort of symbol of our country, the state, etc. Kids always play on them including me.

I remember playing on statues of some sort, and Jesus offended you gotta be kidding me I never felt that way not even in older years as a teen, the twenties etc.

this is all stemming from schools teaching / indoctrinating their thinking today.
 
They also want an end to the Sons and Daughters of the Confederacy.

Screw them. Take their pan African flags and shove them up their asses.

How long will it be before the Leftists with their Antifa Far Left Fascist friends begin invading American libraries and start burning books?
 
I think the present white supremacists, neo nazis have done a disservice to Robert E Lee's legacy by grabbing on to him and making him their HERO, and all for the wrong reasons.... and using him to divide the country on racial lines.

After the war, to the best of his ability...Lee tried to help the Nation heel and became admired even by those in the North, thus all the street names on bases and statues of him put up in the North after the civil war and after getting to know him.

Now, due to the neo nazi and white nationalist groups that have kidnapped him for their own nefarious use, the opposition notices only Lee's bad side...because the people associating with his memory are using him to divide in this day and age....long after the civil war and long after we recognized as a Nation that ALL MEN AND WOMEN are created equal...

I doubt Lee would ever support slavery or the black man being a ''lesser'' if he were reared in my era....just my opinion.

most Nazis or white supremacist know nothing much at all.... about him...
