Confederate Statues Stand, BLM Plaza Forced to Close

Illegally? What fantasy world do you live in. Slavery was wrong and the War freed them followed by 2 amendments that settled the matter.

You don't change laws by invading states. Lincoln violated the constitution which is the reason the constitution was changed later. Of course after the South was illegally invaded.

Who were slavers. Yes, them you frail fucktard. Why are you pretending like this is new information to you?

They and the events were many many things besides slave owner.
That is what the statues are for versus your racism and feelings

“Republicans in Virginia just renamed their schools after slavers this year after they were changed”

It doesn’t mean they’re not nice people.

These posters are a hoot over calling whites frail. They are the frail bunch trying to erase the history of the USA.

Roe v Wade was wrong as well but until the Supreme Court reversed it, it was the law. Slavery was totally legal until the constitution was changed. In fact the Supreme court back then ruled it was legal.

Talking about slavery and confederates IS on topic this is about the Confederacy which is part of the thread premise.

Just as the history revisionists are Sarge.....~S~

That comment wasn't directed towards you. There are a few others in here that need to read it, but more than likely won't.

I am not from the South. I am from the West. South Carolina used low power cannons to scare the military in Sumter. Check it out. None in the fort were injured. You must know that the Supreme court ruled slavery was legal. Moral or not, it was legal then. The apology is owed to VA who got invaded over what Abe said then it was not about slavery at all.

Nope the Confederacy chose to wage was on the US and Virginia was part of that Government.

It’s a constant lib loon fake ploy to try and hold people of 200 years ago to the more developed moral standards of today And to pretend that things have not changed And that we in the here and now are Reparationally Responsible for the lack of better understanding from 200+years ago. It’s a con game

They named a plaza after blm which is wildly racist, and put up a statue of a guy who was a drug addict, and put a gun to a pregnant woman's stomach while his friends robbed her you ignorant twit!

 

[Correll]

Whatever they are you know what they aren't? Slavers. Slavers can be forgiven but not commie racist anti American bastards.

Forgiveness requires that the person doing the bad, stop doing the bad. The confederates fought and lost. Forgiveness did not come till after the fighting was done and the South surrendered.


BLM, and it's supporters, are still fighting for their bad ideas and actions, of anti-white racism, anti-Americanism, marxism, ect.

So, discussing forgiveness of them, is really dumb. What needs to be done is they still need to be fought and defeated, until they surrender.


That you need this explained to you, makes you look pretty dim.

Now when you argue a BLM protestor is worse than a slaver, whom you can find it in your heart to forgive, how seriously do you imagine I take you or your frail white people?

I'm telling you to your face, that I forgive the South, and not blm. The frail whites are the ones that play along with you and your stupid shit, out of fear or guilt.


This is a present from maga, for you.

 

[AZrailwhale]

The act of slavery is itself mistreatment you dumb white fucktards.

Slavery has existed all throughout history. It was and is a normal state of affairs. It's not unique to the USA.

I guess symbols of the Confederacy are not divisive.

Neither are the symbols of BLM. Everyone agrees BLM was a two-bit grift.

The chief difference is the monuments to the confederacy have long histories. BLM was just a flash in the con-job pan. BLM and Enron are total butt-buddies when it comes to the integrity of both organizations.

Agree or disagree, leave it up the the communities to decide what to do in their public square. Quit being fascists.

There is no appeasing the perpetual victims. Tear down all the confederate statues, and they will find something new to be offended by.

Maybe we shouldn't have forgiven the South.

The problem was, after the war, we let the South go back to engaging in bad behavior instead of enforcing what was won in the war.

150 years later, we have come to realize Democrats are incapable of stopping their racist behavior. They just switch targets.

 

[Robert W]

Maybe we shouldn't have forgiven the South.

I have not forgiven the North. Rather Abraham Lincoln.
He treated the South like it was his personal property.
