Except one war was for freedom and the other was for slavery.
No. Both conflicts were about overthrowing the control of an overbearing central government and returning it to the people at the local level.

Each side of the Revolution and the Civil War believed they were right, also the main issue of the Civil War was not about slavery it was secondary. We have
distorted the reason for the Civil War and are trying to rewrite all of history over it.
thats the logic of one of our biggest resident trolls alright.Under thst mentality we should still be a British colony flying the Union Jack over our government buildings rather than the Star Spangled Babner.
a fact that will never register with this shill of course.to be fair,we have had many illegitimate presidents sworn in due to election fraud including RINOS like Bush who got in illegally both times.as i said,this has gone on for decades now,this is not the first time we have had an illegitmate president sworn in and not all were dems.Okay cool. Racism and oppression is over in America then.I'm very happy to read about this. I hope it continues.
All of those monuments and statues should be in a museum where they belong.
People who attacked our nation causing the bloodiest war in our history, which put brother against brother, which killed over 600 thousand Americans, should never been revered or celebrated.
They should only be held in contempt. They aren't patriots. Patriots don't go to war to leave the union.
They are traitors to our nation and the last thing they deserve is our respect or any sort of monument or statue.
According to the Democrats, racism and oppression never will be over. Otherwise, how else would they win an election?
Besides cheating, I mean.
Liberals do not realize you cannot change history by hiding historyI'm very happy to read about this. I hope it continues.

Idiotic. And I'll bet you claim to be against divisiveness. You are the problem; not monuments that never hurt anybody.I'm very happy to read about this. I hope it continues.

George Orwell, 1984Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture has been repainted, every statue and street building has been renamed, every date has been altered. And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is always right.

Black people who chose to stay in America are proof of “white supremacy”. They want to live in a country founded and built by white people, all based on the values they brought from England and Europe. If white culture wasn’t “superior”, why are third worlders always trying to get into our country as well as other Western nations?Have any idea how many black people lived in New Orleans, then and now?
Think having to look at a monument to white supremacy "didn't hurt" them?

Wow, thanks for coming out dood. Don't forget yer hood.
The point stands. Unlike the obelisk. To which, good riddance.

distorted the reason for the Civil War and are trying to rewrite all of history over it.
Then it's kind of inconvenient that every seceding state specifically cited Slavery, AT THE TIME, as a basis for leaving the Union, isn't it.
See, this malarkey about "it wasn't about Slavery" is part and parcel of the Lost Cause Cult revisionism, which is what those monuments were executing as well. The effect of the UDC Ministry of Propaganda.

The creation of these monuments and statues was motivated by fear, racism, and hate – not to ‘honor’ those who fought in the Civil War.You’re into Marxist censorship.
You need to be removed.
No, I don't think black people "hurt" about that. I think that some people go around looking for any possible excuse to be offended because they enjoy playing the victim.Idiotic.

Here's the first monument the city of New Orleans took down (see post 17) in its original placement:
That obelisk is (was) standing at the foot of Canal Street, literally the busiest spot in the entire city. You can see the streetcar turning around to head back up toward the Lake.
Here's what the inscription on that obelisk read:
That's a commemoration of a coup d'etat staged in the city in 1876 by a White Supremacist group called the White League, which literally went to war against a democratically elected biracial city government to install an all-white one.
Then they plunked THIS into the most prominent spot in the entire city.
Have any idea how many black people lived in New Orleans, then and now?
Think having to look at a monument to white supremacy "didn't hurt" them?
Hm?
How about the statue of Robert E. Lee, who never wanted graven images of himself to exist, standing defiantly facing NORTH, at Lee Circle, where St. Charles Avenue (and another streetcar) begin?
Think black people "didn't hurt" about that?
Hm?
Monuments were part of the Lost Cause Cult...
This is a lie.Good news for left loons, not so much for us against trying to erase history

They were created to reinforce and codify black codes, Jim Crow laws, and segregation.
It is perfectly appropriate to remove these monuments as those who engaged in treason against the United States and committed war crimes deserve no commemoration.
