Today there are still a lot of confederate flags around after that.
Well, yes. Private citizens are free to announce their alignment with a dishonorable lost cause for the world to see. The issue at hand is the government placing confederate symbols in a place of honor.
Trump is succeeding in getting confederate symbols removed where Obama failed. Maybe he is playing chess, after all.
He could've just tried an EO, something he loves. And it wouldn't have required him to capitulate to Nazis. But of course, to think this was really Trump's goal takes some next-level self delusion.
America is becoming like a communist dictatorship or ISIS and the Taliban. They erase history so they can rewrite it. I bet they are also thinking about burning books next. This is sickening. These cities doing this are places I will NEVER spend my money in.
The only ones trying to erase history are on the right.
Civil war traitors belong in museums, not having their treason celebrated in public parks.
Germany isn't erasing their history just because there isn't a Nazi flag flying over the reichstag, either.
The libs think they are winning this, a response will come. After the SC statehouse flag issue there were huge confederate flag rallies through the south. It took a few weeks to organize them but it happened. Today there are still a lot of confederate flags around after that. The destruction of these monuments is even more offensive and far more people down here are spittin mad than you libs think there is. You think your going to steamroll us....you won't. You won't take our freedom for your political correctness
What would you say if I told you that these cities wanted to take them down? They are not national monuments, they are local statues on city land.
Do you not support local city rights?
I think confederate statues should be removed from public spaces and placed in museums, but I also think it's city's calls to make.
