This includes the south. I dont think anyone is suggesting exhuming them either. The problem is not the memorials so much as the attempt to [b]make treason seem honorable[/b] by placing statues or obelisks to honor them. This is just wrong, it's no different than putting a statue of Mao Se Dong in central park. [/quote] WTF are you talking about? Lmfao you know that most of the states willingly joined the [i]United[/i] with the caveat they could leave whenever for any reason right? So them leaving is treason or is treason stopping them from leaving? Certainly a grey area but "treason" seems a bit ridiculous in that context. [/quote] Yeah, I agree with you But 90% of americans wont They see the confederacy as an attempt to keep slavery an institution, and many southern leaders admitted it was including Lee himself. [/quote] What the confederacy was fighting was the beginnings of the New World Order, central bank internationalism and all the communists machinations that latter manifested in the 20th century. People with a brain know what we have been fighting, and are still fighting. Confused people end up supporting the prison planet because they buy into Marxist oppression horse shit.
