In all seriousness JD I really don't get it. I mean Confederate statues,I suspect you already know the answer, but what better way to start their quest to tear down this country by erasing its history? They'll say "well, I mean...George Washington and Thomas Jefferson were just white slave owners!"
Good...so by that logic, when do we start tearing down statues and memorials of Robert Byrd? There is more shit named after him than anything else in West Virginia...roads, buildings on the WVU campus, etc.
Oh, right. I almost forgot. He apologized once for his past, so it's all good with dimocraps.
Stop this madness of whitewashing history and tearing down the foundations of The Confederate States of America.
Re post #5
You're right Scott it doesn't answer the ? but what is do is
shed some light on the thought process of a fool. I was going
to mention an article I read today but Joe beat me to it in
post #7. I was hoping there was some rationale behind this stupidity
but if there is I'm clueless.
fyp....you can stop it yourself....just make your way over from GB and join with those 21st century citizens of the United States of America who share your love for the CSA - a ragtag organization of 19th century slave owners who got shut down in less than 40 months thanks to the courageous United States military and their Commander in Chief Abraham Lincoln.
Get in on a few marches, wave the Stars&Bars next to some cats repping swastika flags and I bet you can shut down this 21st century Political Correctness in short order.
Make sure and run some video of your events and post it here at the Rx PolyForum in case any other Rx forum postjng members wish to march alongside you! It will be a Real Party!
So the Army of Northern Virginia was a 'ragtag' army, that take the cake. Know this:
Four of the most astonishing tactical victories ever by those born on US soil were led by
Generals born in the South. Two of the four toyed with Union Forces in Civil War routs.
The Mt Rushmore of generals born on American soil
Lee at Chancellorsville
Jackson in the Valley
Forrest at Brices Crossroads
MacArthur at Inchon
The first three were idolized by young americans that fought in future wars. I'll tell you this,
those on the right & those on the left who participated in the Charlottesville tragedy were not worthy.
Robert Lee would never have allowed either group to be included in the Army of Northern Virginia.
Bottom line.....they were steamrolled and relegated to the ash heaps of history. With over 150 years of context we can see that the CSA four year run was a popcorn fart in world history compared to the 100+ sovereign nations who have both preceded and outlasted them worldwide.
Here is a question to ponder. Why is the left trying to erase our countries history?
I have no opinion of her but it is possible her overnight move may have prevented some clashes which could have been disastrous like in Va.
I loathe what the left does to society - ALL societies. Whether it's corrupt politicians and bureaucrats in fancy suits robbing the people of their freedoms and prosperity or violent CTRL-left hooligans, they are all equally contemptible and evil in my eyes.
Throughout history, it is mind boggling how much death and destruction the left has caused - Nazism, communism, socialism, all worshiping at the alter of the iron-fisted state. Venezuela is the latest FAILED leftist Utopia where things have gotten so bad now zoo animals have become meals.
Look at the libtards in this forum...how these self-righteous assholes feel they have the moral high ground in ANY debate on ANY issue is mind-boggling.
We need to start electing politicians who are not afraid to call a spade a spade (much like Reagan did constantly mocking and calling out communism).
The left is NOT "well meaning" or "misguided" - the left IS CANCER... pure terminal CANCER for any society.
I hope you were fucking around when you posted that.Confederate statues were erected by racists who were pissed that they lost the Civil War as a reminder to the Negro to "stay in your place."
