So why are you snowflakes tearing history apart? I condemn all hate groups including antifa. You?"Removing history" is such an over dramatic snowflake term. Makes me laugh when I hear y'all continue to use it. To answer your question, no of course moving or removing statues doesn't solve all our race problems, but it takes a stand and shows action against racist values, which we should all be able to unify around, especially after the events in Charolettsville. Instead of taking a unified stand against the Nazi and racist groups that are speaking out we embarrassingly fall into partisan arguments where people like you defend the statues on the side of the Nazi/KKK and try and turn the conversation towards the Left by attacking ANTIFA. You feed right into the agenda of the hate groups, and you were lead there by the careless words of our dear leader.So are you saying that removing the symbols will help blacks? Now that the statues are down is hate resolved? What is your plan beyond the removal of history?As interesting as your spun story about the civil war is, per this discussion it is irrelevant. I've heard the same type of accounts about the Nazis and hitler that justify what they did and paint them as heros. But for this situation we are talking about symbols that stand for a certain set of values. Like I said before if there is a statute of a community leader who happened to be with the confederate, who founded a school that's erected by his school, then I have no problem with that. But if he is in the town square wearing a military uniform, then that's a different story.I seriously doubt you have any idea whatsoever about "what is going on" I can vouch for the fact you have no idea what happened in the civil war and reconstruction it is evident each time this subject comes up. They di what they had to do to try to keep as much of their homeland from being burned and their wives and children killed and raped as they could. Win or lose they did all they could to keep murdering vile disgusting scum invaders from taking what little they had from them. SO fuck your taking down statues that stood for honor and valor, Not for any damn piece of shit Planter, they didn't fight in the war, they just took their money and caught a boat to some offshore kingdom and came back after to deal with the fucking carpetbaggers that were killing the freed slaves like slaughtering cattle. Your leftist scum narrative has about as much in common with truth as Norma Jean Baker has with Phyllis Ada Driver. The shit communist scum in the latest incarnation of antifa have nothing in common with ANY group of people who fought against hitler's murdering scum, in fact they are quite like them in most ways.If they did something worthy of celebration in their communities then that's fine, but don't make a statue of them sitting on a horse in their confederate uniform. Get a clue man, we all know what's going on
The simple facts that the Nazis and KKK rallied around one of these statues to fight for its preservation along with the history of erecting many of these statutes during Jim Crow as symbols to put Blacks in the place as they fought for their rights, it shows what many of these statues stand for, and those are not values that many Americans identify with
