What are you talking about? They lost two of their own today. Need some cops to scapegoat? What will be the invented reason this time?

I think history should be truthful. Not erased or re-written. We don't have truthful history in the US.

My god, + a million for this post. That sad, sorry, tragic war ended 152 ****ing years ago....god damn, what is it with the people who just can't get over It?

The Confederate history is a part of all of pur histories; as a black man I'm positive my lineage traces to both the enslaved and the slave owners of that time period. So the people who trumpet that and this "white nationalist" agenda as being a part of their histories---hell, the **** is and was all of our histories. I don't understand why a celebration is deserved for things that represent blatant racist, and even violent, ideology...

Always the lies stated by the idolizers of this ideology...

In order for something to be rewritten, one would think it had been truthfully told to begin with. It wasn't...ypu know it and I know it, and no "apologist" I've ever known thinks they can erase history, because you can't. And you should know, seeing as clearly your views align with the group that's tried for many, many, many, MANY years to whitewash and erase aspects of American history and relevance...

Exactly This!

However, I will say after these incidents, they should tear down all the ****ing monuments in Virginia that are at dedicated public areas, besides the Confederate Museum in Richmond. That period of America deserves to be told....it does not deserve to be celebrated, and it's bothers me that The Commonwealth is so far behind on correcting these mistakes...

I feel similarly about other displays of white supremacy and white nationalism...

And all this drama, along with the deaths of two police officers due to an arrogant and overzealous city council. I hope they sleep well tonight.

The past should be honored and the descendants of those who were honored for their contribution until today should stand up for the rights of accurate history.

Who wants the statue removed, and what is the justification ... beyond the ... his only accomplishments to achieve a statue were to impose racism?

Can anyone see the bigger picture, or is this all about left right black white no one is educated enough to understand shades of grey.

It's been all over the internatiomal news since the car crash incident. A helicopter associated with the left right, white black, Nazi - KKK, Unionists - Confrderatists, statue - no statue, police - no police, death - USA terrorism event ... two dead in the helicopter, one on the street, more in the hospital.

Nice stats. Who cares about fake news when reality is that you do not hear the news?
