I pointed that out, but 44 new ones have been established as well, dude, and the other statues are mostly only being moved to new locations for a bigger net gain.The monuments are being discovered faster than they are being removed.
“That’s because the same outrage that led to the removal of some memorials has led to the identification of others. Confederate sites, most of them established long ago, are being discovered faster they’re being removed.”
We are not the ones tearing down historic monuments like the Taliban, doofus.Geez.
You Southerners really need to get over this Civil War obsession of yours.
We are not the ones tearing down historic monuments like the Taliban, doofus.
That is the leftwing Stalinists that now run the Dimocratic Party.
Defending the symbols and memorials of our history is not obsession on our part, it is obsession on the part of those who want to rewrite history, and that is all the Taliban left.And please, don’t make me say it!
Washington didn`t lead troops into battle against the United States. See the difference between Washington and Lee? Washington wasn`t a treasonous traitor.You have statues but what you don`t have is slaves and they`re not coming back no matter how much homage you give to your statues of treasonous losers.
And you're not gonna erase the Civil War or it's players. I live between 3 Civil War battlefields. They attract over 1 Million visitors per year. That history needs to REMAIN to sanctify the carnage on this land.
Who's home is the land for Arlington National Cemetary? Want to erase THAT fact? What about Washington and Lee University -- wanna put the Taliban purge and destruction to THAT?
Oh.. So if the University has a dual name -- that protects it from the purge? Lee spent most of his adult life in the North working for military and advancing education. He made a choice. Was not vested in slavery. His HOME is now the land for Arlington Cemetery. Wanna erase that history as well?
Where did the OP say he wanted slaves?You have statues but what you don`t have is slaves and they`re not coming back no matter how much homage you give to your statues of treasonous losers.
And anyway, it’s the democraps who love exploiting people for slave labour.

We shouldn't celebrate traitors. Plain and simple. You signed up to fight for the enemy of the nation....you are the enemy of the nation. They deserve no public accolades, no public recognition, and zero public funding for preservation of any honorarium.
Take all of the names off the schools...
Take all of the statuary and move it into a museum (it is our history--warts and all)...
Take all of the roads and change the names....

They seceded from the Union. That was an option. The Founders addressed the need to periodically overthrow govts that didn't represent their interests. The Southern economy and culture was VASTLY different from the North and they were being forced to pay for Northern infrastructure that they didn't need.
You're not hanging enough people on your team talking about CalExit and resisting Federal immigration then. Go round up the "traitors"..
That's OUR HISTORY. It won't be re-written because you hold 250 yr old grudges. You're worse than a Southern family with a Stars and Bars. You're STILL FIGHTING the damn war. Give it up. It's looks retarded.
Ban tiki torches.

You libs should be put in charge of a War Against Prosperity and we would all be billionaires.

There’s no provision for secession in the constitution. And Madison was explicit that no such power existed. Plus, all the forts were federal property.
When the south attacked US soldiers on federal land.....they sparked the military conflict.

The Constitution only lists the RIGHTS of the federal govt. Everything else is reserved to the states and people respectively. So of course --- "there's no RIGHT of secession" in the Constitution. It's reserved to the states and the people respectively.
Have no idea what Madison quote you're referring to ----- but it's CLEARLY in our Declaration of Independence.
"Whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends [i.e., securing inherent and inalienable rights, with powers derived from the consent of the governed], it is the right of the people to alter or abolish it, and to institute new government, laying its foundation on such principles, and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness." --Thomas Jefferson: Declaration of Independence, 1776. ME 1:29, Papers 1:315
- "The spirit of resistance to government is so valuable on certain occasions, that I wish it to be always kept alive. It will often be exercised when wrong, but better so than not to be exercised at all. I like a little rebellion now and then. It is like a storm in the atmosphere." --Thomas Jefferson to Abigail Adams, 1787.
- "What country can preserve its liberties if its rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them." --Thomas Jefferson to William Stephens Smith, 1787. ME 6:373, Papers 12:356
“I partake of the wonder that the men you name should view secession in the light mentioned. The essential difference between a free Government and Governments not free, is that the former is founded in compact, the parties to which are mutually and equally bound by it. Neither of them therefore can have a greater fight to break off from the bargain, than the other or others have to hold them to it. And certainly there is nothing in the Virginia resolutions of –98, adverse to this principle, which is that of common sense and common justice. The fallacy which draws a different conclusion from them lies in confounding a single party, with the parties to the Constitutional compact of the United States.
James Madison.
“Few Years Ago the Left Declared War on Confederate Statues…”ROFLMAO, the left has had the unintended consequence of raising interest in the Civil War and now we have more memorials, more statues and more awareness of the Southern point of view regarding the War of Northern Aggression.
The left just cant help themselves; 'cause they are Eternal Losers.
Confederate memorials turn up faster than they can be removed a year after Charlottesville
That explains, for example, why the organization’s tally of Confederate monuments (a subset of memorials) has increased from 718 in 2016 to 772, even though over the same period 49 monuments were removed. They include Memphis’ statues of Davis and Nathan Bedford Forrest, a Confederate general accused of presiding over the slaughter of black Union troops. After the war he became the first "grand wizard" of the Ku Klux Klan.
It was the city of Charlottesville's plan to remove statues of Lee and Jackson from two parks that sparked demonstrations last August by far-right groups. A riot erupted when the protesters clashed with counterprotesters; one counterprotester was killed when she was rammed by a car driven into a crowd by a man linked to white supremacist groups.
The conflict became a national political debate after President Trump appeared to equate the white supremacists and their opponents, referring at one point to "very fine people on both sides."
A year later, the statues that prompted it all remain in place; state law prohibits local governments from "disturbing or interfering with" memorials to war veterans.
Old memorials, newly recorded
Most of the law center survey’s newly recorded memorials are not themselves new. Many date from 1890 to 1914, when the South reversed the effects of Reconstruction, systematically denied blacks the right to vote and redefined the primary Confederate war aim as the protection of states’ rights, not slavery. This theory, regarded as specious by most academic historians, is called “The Lost Cause.’’
But the increase in public Confederate memorials is not entirely a matter of record-keeping. At least 44 new ones have been established since the turn of the century.
