if I thought liberals would shut their face if they got their way, I would take them down myself. but since they do nothing but whine nonstop about everything, I want this to take as long as possible. I want these symbols you feel are racist to stay up because u mad bro
It's just getting started. This might turn into an avalanche soon. People like me will never keep our mouth shut until they all come down. Many of these cities where Confederate statues are, they are majority Black now, as is Richmond. What are you going to do when ALL of them come down within the next year. What then?
Lee was a traitor to his own country. He was sworn to protect the USA. He had a choice. Serve the USA, or serve the Confederates. He picked the Confederates.
By the way, as wrong as cheating on your wife is, it's a far lesser problem than OWNING SLAVES. Robert E. Lee owned slaves. He even said that slavery was good for Blacks. He fought for the Confederates, whom their main goal was to keep slavery. That is why the southern states wanted secession. They wanted slavery to be kept and they feared its ending. Robert E. Lee picked the wrong side to fight for, in addition to being a slave owner. Same goes for Jefferson Davis.
Dr. King might have cheated on his wife, and that was wrong. At the same time, he did far more for this country than Lee did. Dr. King stood up to Jim Crow, stood up to the discrimination that was going on in America. He helped get some laws changed. I'm more thankful to King than I will ever be to Lee. I hate Robert E. Lee.
he's dead, so your hate means nothing. lee has cities and counties named after him all over the country. no way you'll get rid of those, and this anger will eat you up inside. lee had slaves, and so did half the country at that time. half the country wasn't cheating on their wife in the 60's. womanizing human being MLK did though.

seems like the damage is already done. a statue has ruined you for life. plenty of stuff still named after lee in the state. you nazi liberals can destroy art all you want. we know the future you want.

1) What are you going to do when places named for Lee start getting renamed? Just admit it, you like Robert E. Lee because you wish the South had won.
2) Alot more people were cheating on their wives than you would think. Many just never spoke about it. You'll cheer for a slaveowner, but you consider the person who cheated on his wife (and yes, that was wrong too) to be worse than the slave owner. That says more about how morally corrupt your mindset it.

Again, you still haven't answered the question. What are YOU going to do when everthing named for Confederates gets renamed, and Confederate monuments get torn down? What then? What are you going to do? Answer???

I was born 10 minutes from canada, and my family is from a state WAY up north. I'm actually not a huge fan of the south to be honest. I think I like it better than whiners though. and again, they've already renamed street signs and such. but entire towns and counties? I don't know how that is possible. at least not in my lifetime. they renamed a school here in town, but everyone still calls it Lee. it's like a girl that identifies as a boy, but everyone still knows she's a girl.

Lee led troops into battle against the United States of America and is responsible for hundreds of thousands of deaths. It shouldn`t be that hard to understand the difference between Lee and George Washington or any other slave owner.

you literally just asked the question. I am going to do nothing. I'm not overemotional over a statue or a flag.

In short, you have no dogfight in this, but you're being spiteful for the fun of it.
