More anti-American censorship is good news?
The OP is another nazi.

How is swapping out one statue for another being a Nazi? I don't think they call that censorship.

Adding a statue might not be but usurpation definitely is censorship.

It's not. They only get two spots and they felt fighting for civil rights was more of what they want to celebrate than enslavement.

 

[Concerned American]

Some good news in 2020. One of Virginia's statues in Statutory Hall in the Capital will replace Robert E. Lee with a more aspirational choice.

I've heard of a lot great military leaders, but haven't heard of her. What war did she serve in? Was she a Major or a General?

And why is she dressed like Dale Evans? That's no way to go into battle.

Why do statues have to always be of the military? Anyway, she wasn't a traitor to her country.

No confederate soldier was ever convicted of treason because they were not traitors. It was a civil war moron. Much like the one that is brewing today.

they could have publicly executed them in the end, yet did not......

~S~

But I don't know what to do--Cricklewood Green, 1971?

You’re kowtowing to censorship and history revision.

I'm not doing either. Lee will always be the racist slave owning general who killed Americans regardless if his statue is in a place of honor or not. There is nothing against swapping out statues in Statuary Hall. In fact the following changes have been made in the past.

• George Washington Glick, Kansas (removed in favor of Dwight D. Eisenhower in 2003)
• Thomas Starr King, California (removed in favor of Ronald Reagan in 2009)
• Jabez Lamar Monroe Curry, Alabama (removed in favor of Helen Keller in 2009); see Statue of Jabez Lamar Monroe Curry
• Zachariah Chandler, Michigan (removed in favor of Gerald R. Ford in 2011)
• James Harlan, Iowa (removed in favor of Norman Borlaug in 2014)[7]
• William Jennings Bryan, Nebraska (removed in favor of Chief Standing Bear in 2019)[8]
• John Campbell Greenway, Arizona (removed in favor of Barry M. Goldwater in 2015)[9]
• William Allen, Ohio (removed in favor of Thomas A. Edison in 2016); see Statue of William Allen
• Charles Brantley Aycock, replaced by evangelist Billy Graham in 2018)[10]
• Edmund Kirby Smith, (removed in favor of Mary McLeod Bethune in 2018)[11]
• Julius Sterling Morton, (removed in favor of William Cather in 2018)[12]
• Philo T. Farnsworth, (removed in favor of Martha Hughes Cannon in 2019)[13][14]
• Uriah Milton Rose and James Paul Clarke, (both removed in favor of Johnny Cash and Daisy Lee Gatson Bates in 2019)[15]
• Thomas Hart Benton (removed in favor of Harry S. Truman in 2019)[16]

Oh no, look at all that historical revisionism and censorship you never bothered to be worried about before.

Look at your timeline!
This is a sinister attempt at history revision for the purpose of usurping the culture so as to make Marxism
implementation easier. And you’re a dupe.
Honest people know that you can’t apply today’s standards to other eras because they didn’t have the benefit of hindsight.
Totally dishonest.

Great, feel free to go into great detail about it.

Do you think a statue of a guy who was a staunch defender of the union and Lincoln who helped to ensure California didn't become a separate republic should have been replaced by Reagan? What is that doing to history and whatever?

You’re hopelessly ignorant.
You have no respect for history or honor. That sucks.

I have respect for history, I have very little reason to honor the memory of those whose biggest contribution was to kill Americans for the cause of slavery. You feel differently.

For someone who respects history you have a very indoctrinated and inaccurate view.

Great, feel free to go into great detail about it.

Do you think a statue of a guy who was a staunch defender of the union and Lincoln who helped to ensure California didn't become a separate republic should have been replaced by Reagan? What is that doing to history and whatever?

If you have a legit gripe about censorship and history revision don’t try to qualify your grievance by endorsing the same thing.

Can't even answer a simple question?

I don't have a problem with the Reagan statue swap and you don't either except you kind of locked yourself in, didn't you? Good job on the self own.

More anti-American censorship is good news?
The OP is another nazi.

How is swapping out one statue for another being a Nazi? I don't think they call that censorship.

Adding a statue might not be but usurpation definitely is censorship.

It's not. They only get two spots and they felt fighting for civil rights was more of what they want to celebrate than enslavement.

You’re kowtowing to censorship and history revision.

I'm not doing either. Lee will always be the racist slave owning general who killed Americans regardless if his statue is in a place of honor or not. There is nothing against swapping out statues in Statuary Hall. In fact the following changes have been made in the past.

• George Washington Glick, Kansas (removed in favor of Dwight D. Eisenhower in 2003)
• Thomas Starr King, California (removed in favor of Ronald Reagan in 2009)
• Jabez Lamar Monroe Curry, Alabama (removed in favor of Helen Keller in 2009); see Statue of Jabez Lamar Monroe Curry
• Zachariah Chandler, Michigan (removed in favor of Gerald R. Ford in 2011)
• James Harlan, Iowa (removed in favor of Norman Borlaug in 2014)[7]
• William Jennings Bryan, Nebraska (removed in favor of Chief Standing Bear in 2019)[8]
• John Campbell Greenway, Arizona (removed in favor of Barry M. Goldwater in 2015)[9]
• William Allen, Ohio (removed in favor of Thomas A. Edison in 2016); see Statue of William Allen
• Charles Brantley Aycock, replaced by evangelist Billy Graham in 2018)[10]
• Edmund Kirby Smith, (removed in favor of Mary McLeod Bethune in 2018)[11]
• Julius Sterling Morton, (removed in favor of William Cather in 2018)[12]
• Philo T. Farnsworth, (removed in favor of Martha Hughes Cannon in 2019)[13][14]
• Uriah Milton Rose and James Paul Clarke, (both removed in favor of Johnny Cash and Daisy Lee Gatson Bates in 2019)[15]
• Thomas Hart Benton (removed in favor of Harry S. Truman in 2019)[16]

Oh no, look at all that historical revisionism and censorship you never bothered to be worried about before.

Look at your timeline!
This is a sinister attempt at history revision for the purpose of usurping the culture so as to make Marxism
implementation easier. And you’re a dupe.
Honest people know that you can’t apply today’s standards to other eras because they didn’t have the benefit of hindsight.
Totally dishonest.

What about the timeline? Sinister? Give it a rest pearl clutcher. The confederacy is dead and Virginia moved on.

You’re hopelessly ignorant.

Just because you’re OK with censorship it doesn’t mean anyone else has to be.

So, you have a problem with the Reagan statue then? Because of censorship? You idiot.

Some good news in 2020. One of Virginia's statues in Statutory Hall in the Capital will replace Robert E. Lee with a more aspirational choice.

The reactionary right is frightened of positive, beneficial change and diversity; they won't be happy that their symbol of racism and hate is being removed.

Yeah, it meshes so well with the "Democrats being the party of slavery" too.

These monuments were intended to reinforce Jim Crow, black codes, and segregation, having nothing to do with 'history.'
