Abrams calls for removal of Confederate faces off Stone Mountain

[JimL]

You can honor even your enemies without celebrating or agreeing with their causes. Even though the South was wrong, they were still Americans, and most were honorable men fighting for what they believed was just. We can honor that without celebrating them. Besides, "celebrating" as used by the liberals and Tassy means "agreeing with them and promoting their ideals of racism and slavery" and trying to associate anyone who wants to keep the statues as being White Supremacists."

If you were a black person who these Confederate leaders were fighting to keep enslaved, I think you might have a different attitude concerning their honor..

So if you were a black person, knowing the history of the south and of slavery and what those statues commemorate and symbolize concerning the treatment of your ancestors, you'd be just fine with them?

Yep. Just like every black person and liberal has until you all went nuts trying to find something to obsess about to change the topic from the fact that there is no evidence of a Russian collusion.

But folks like Jimmy blacks aren't smart enough to make such decisions for themselves. They need folks like him to tell them what to think and do.

I am glad the liberals have all gone nuts and are showing America how insane they really are with all of this nonsense and flinging accusations at everyone who doesn't follow the talking points. It just hurts them in the long run when election time comes along. I wonder if they think that accusing all white people and conservatives of being Nazi Racists will endear them to the left and convince them to vote Democrat?

A couple weeks back I was reading of a study that found that a large portion of those who had voted for Obama but voted for Trump this go around did so largely because they were sick and tired of the bizarre social engineering that the left was determinedly engaged in. Specifically many thought that Hillary and other Democrats were far more interested in making sure transsexuals would have access to whatever bathroom they wanted to use at the moment than they were about jobs and the economy. And as long as they continue to do so a significant portion of the voters that they count will likely stay at home come the next election.

Yeah, that's not the statutes symbolize, you doofus.

One of my cousins said that she has always been a democrat and her dad too, and this time they both voted for Trump because the democrats have gone nuts with all this nonsense and violence.

Liberal snowflakes. Their skin color does not matter.

Statues can represent lots of things Jimmy. Some of those statues were built as a memorial to those who died or for peace. You should really try reading dedication plaques on statues sometime. Likewise, many of my ancestors were Irish, Italian, and American Indians and we know how poorly these groups were treated. How should I feel about their treatment? Nothing because those events happened to them and not me. Same is true for the descendents of slaves. It was your ancestors who were locked into slavery, not you. So remember the past, make sure those events don't repeat, and stop trying to benefit from the suffering of your ancestors.
