I have no problem accepting the fact that idiocy exists on both ends of the political spectrum, usually at the extremes.
But let me ask a question: why were so many statues commemorating the confederacy torn down? Was it not an attempt to disown or ah, whitewash this country's history with respect to slavery? It wasn't the Right that was doing that, and there's a certain similarity.
I don't think there's any question that atrocities were a part of our American History, and IMHO it should not be forgotten. The plain truth ought to be taught to our kids.
