OK.....Lets keep the Confederate Statues

[miketx]

Go build them yourself, raise the money, hire the artists and get them out there. You don't get to erase history that you find repugnant.

Nobody is erasing history

But you do not honor history that is repugnant. If we have statues about the confederacy, lets tell the WHOLE story

Once you have destroyed Confederate history, what will you want to destroy next.

Confederate history is plain to see and it isn't monuments and flags

It is a history of treason, slavery and death

It's history.

Sure is ...that is the purpose of the thread

The history of the Confederacy is human bondage

I must have missed that in the thread title. Can you show me where it says that?

But lets modify them to portray the correct historical context

Lets honor those who created a nation to ensure that blacks would be enslaved forever. That is what the Confederacy was about.......Not Scarlett O'Hara, Not gentlemen fighting for a noble cause, not a cool flag to fly on your pickup truck

Great then we can tell the true story on how they were Democrats.

Nobody is disputing that

But for some odd reason......It is REPUBLICANS defending the Confederacy

You can't stay truthful can you? It's the not tearing down monuments we are defending.

Monuments to what?

Why is it the REPUBLICANS always defending confederate symbols?

I'm sure y'all would be right there protesting if the "monument" being torn down was to MLK, right?

Do you really think that's what the neo Nazis were protesting?

Why would you want Dr. Kings monument torn down? But I'll say this, if all the Confederate monuments come down, Kings should come down as well.

We already know the whole story... good grief.

No, you don't. Nor do any of the other tards who tell the LESS THAN HALF truth about the RIGHT WING CHRISTIAN Ku Klux Klan and RIGHT WING CHRISTIAN Democrats of old.

Southern traitors maybe . Lincoln and Grant fought to save the USA . Not destroy it .

These confederate fans are the same who get offended by players sitting out the national anthem . Oh the irony !

The truth is that it SHOULDN'T matter. That's a thing lost on the young. Why? Because they've been taught that they should never have to "feel" threatened.

Nope. That would be for the Saudi's or the Bush's to decide. Here is a truth, you won't understand it or believe it but it's the truth anyway.

Freedom means you tolerate things you abhor. It means you allow them their platform. Can it disgust you? Should it disgust you" Absolutely but they have right to believe, do, and say the things they want to. To deny them THEIR "rights" makes your "rights" just as untenable.
