Uh, no, we just need to correct ourselves. We've progressed a long way. We just need more work.

We can start by burning the confederate flags and tearing down the confederate monuments.

Racism existed under the stars and stripes too, so might well burn it too, no?

Naw, as much as I would like to PRETEND we didn't have a bunch of inbred bible-thumping rednecks who tried to destroy the greatest country on earth so a few rich assholes could keep raping their slaves, we can't erase that.


We can just put it in it's proper context.

YOu know what, you can't find Hitler's Tomb or any other Nazi monument in Germany today. Every trace of the swastika has been erased.

We need to do the same to the Confederacy.

Political extremists, be they Left or Right, are usually hateful assholes who are just seeking an avenue to vent their hate, their frustrations and/or their spleens against others.

Such people don't really give a shit about their victims, but they seek to legitimize their hate by choosing a side.

You chose the far Left, others choose the far Right, but the premise remains the same.

Who's the victim here in your estimation?

Without the confederacy and the civil war, no part of the subsequent history of the country could be understood. It would not make any sense.

I know people from Missouri who still to this day rever the names of Jesse and Frank James. I don't recall many monuments to Quantrill's Raiders but they are still Confederate heroes.

It's harder to wipe out a national history than you might think. The left has a good shot because they are actually replacing the people.

Sweden is totally wiping out their Viking heritage by replacing the native Swedes with Africans.

Link?

Those who are unjustly accused and/or maltreated.

Thanks for proving once again that you need a refund for this supposed "history" degree you bought online.

Are you still whining at the thought that your "war heroes" are going to be vilified at last?

Nathan Bedford Forrest: Memphis to remove grave of Confederate general, Klansman

MEMPHIS, Tenn. (AP) — The Memphis City Council has begun the process that could result in the removal of the body and a statue of Nathan Bedford Forrest — rebel general, slave trader and early Ku Klux Klan member — from a park.

Multiple media outlets report that the City Council unanimously approved a resolution on Tuesday calling for the graves of Forrest and his wife to be removed from Health Sciences Park. An ordinance to remove the park's statue of Forrest received the first of three readings.

Good!! they should move the statue to a museum where it belongs



In a town that once took considerable pride in its Confederate past, the Alexandria City Council voted unanimously Saturday to change the name of Jefferson Davis Highway and seek permission from the Virginia General Assembly to move a renowned statue of a Confederate soldier in historic Old Town.

The council’s actions went beyond the recommendations of a task force that studied what to do about the city’s controversial Confederate symbols, but not as far as some residents wanted.

After a lengthy public hearing, the council agreed to try to relocate the “Appomattox” statue from the busy intersection of Prince and Washington streets, where thousands of motorists pass it each day. The pensive and unarmed south-facing Confederate soldier would be moved to a local history museum on the same corner.


It was just a year ago that the city decided to end its practice of hanging three Confederate flags from traffic light poles at the “Appomattox” statue on Lee’s birthday and on Confederate Memorial Day.

Alexandria will seek to move Confederate statue and rename Jefferson Davis Highway

Finally the people will no longer be oppressed by this statue and a few flags!

Racism existed under the stars and stripes too, so might well burn it too, no?

I would say the thousands who died ending slavery redeemed that sin in blood.

That's too vague. I did specify in this instance by using the word "here."

. Oh that is the plan alright, but it's just a sloooooww burn until they (those who think like this) figure it is over by their saying it is only, and not with the help of ****** or even if ****** says they aren't playing the game anymore.

 

[EvilCat Breath]

Pity black people. They are just not liked. If all the Confederate flags and monuments are removed will that cleanse the human stain? No. Pity poor black people with their hands out. Won't you like us, just a little? No.

Without the reminders that once upon a time someone thought them worth fighting for maybe they will finally get to sit at the table with the white people. If course you can sit at the table, no one will talk to you anyway.

And we will still keep the Confederacy. God bless Jefferson Davis and Robert E. Lee.

Of course the haters of all things confederate are pro anything muslim, and would have no problem with a muslim flag sharing the flagpole with old glory.

I dont see any fat white people brave enough to start the moving.

Actually, they should want to go voluntarily. This country is racist to its core. All of our non black children are taught to be racist to their core. Black people are slowly going extinct in this country. Go home already.

Actually you fat lazy white people should make us. I dont care if youre racist. Youre like toe fungus. If I keep away from you then you cant effect me.

Dont recall the stars and stripes used as a battle flag in the fight to keep slavery. However, i could give a shit if you burn it. Doesnt bother me at all.

They enslaved lots of white women for sex. Matter of fact the sold and bought whites before they started on Africans.

Are you still whining at the thought that your "war heroes" are going to be vilified at last?

Not only are you wrongfully accusing me of whining, but you are mistaken that they are being vilified. They're just being made "politically correct" by being moved from main street into a museum.

It's quite clear why you are hiding the name of this university you supposedly received a "history" degree from. Clearly any degree you have is better used as toilet paper.

 

[JoeB131]

YEs, because God was totally into slavery and rape. It says so in the Bible.

(And, no, sadly, I'm not making that up.)

No, you never asked which university I went to, and i've stated it on many other thread.

(It was the University of Illinois at Chicago, btw). But admitably, it wasn't a Talking Snake School where they taught us all about Jesus and shit.

These racist scumbags are finally being put in their place... about 100 years too late, but I'll go with it.
