Our society is re-examining its love affair with the Confederacy.
NO it's not. You leftists are trying to ERASE our HISTORY, all SUPPOSEDLY because of RACISM and SLAVERY.
But when it comes to one of YOUR'S, i.e. Robert KKK Byrd, then all of a sudden HIS MEMBERSHIP in the KKK is MOOT.
Well DON'T LOOK NOW but your DEMOCRAT HYPOCRISY and DOUBLE STANDARD is SHOWING AGAIN.
Good ******* God you people are SICKENING sons a bitches.
Far from ERASING it, we are trying to put the Confederacy in its true focus
NO, it was not a noble glorious cause. It was a short lived, horrific nation built on the back of slave labor. I say KEEP the statues of Lee and Jeff Davis....but put them in their proper focus of what their Confederacy meant
But I agree that their statues do not belong in the most prominent location in a public square to honor the "glorious cause". It was not glorious
I could actually agree with that. See, you can be reasonable if you try.
But if you want to really show you're not a partisan hack, you should also denounce Sen Robert KKK Byrd.
Or we could reflect on what the NAACP said about Robert Byrd
NAACP Mourns the Passing of U.S. Senator Robert Byrd | Press Room
WASHINGTON, DC - The NAACP is saddened by the passing of United States Senator Robert Byrd. Byrd, the longest serving member of congress was first elected to the U.S. House from in 1952 and was elected Senator in 1958. Byrd passed away this morning at the age of 92.
"Senator Byrd reflects the transformative power of this nation," stated NAACP President and CEO Benjamin Todd Jealous. "Senator Byrd went from being an active member of the KKK to a being a stalwart supporter of the Civil Rights Act, the Voting Rights Act and many other pieces of seminal legislation that advanced the civil rights and liberties of our country.
"Senator Byrd came to consistently support the NAACP civil rights agenda, doing well on the NAACP Annual Civil Rights Report Card. He stood with us on many issues of crucial importance to our members from the reauthorization of the Voting Rights Act, the historic health care legislation of 2010 and his support for the Hate Crimes Prevention legislation," stated Hilary O. Shelton, Director of the NAACP Washington Bureau and Senior Vice President for Advocacy and Policy. "Senator Byrd was a master of the Senate Rules, and helped strategize passage of legislation that helped millions of Americans. He will be sorely missed."
So now we know why 007 and 2aguy despise Byrd.
Byrd supported Civil Rights.
And we know that 007 and 2aguy can't stand that.
