I'm only half "white" and I'm mad that it didn't go directly into a museum of disgraced artifacts. Unlike Germany we had a chance to do this right. To use them as a tool to teach future Americans our colorful and mournful history. Now all they will have to study are pictures and tweets about them. Anything that trump tweets actually gets preserved.
>>
>>742129775
I agree. All these racist memorials need to get taken down right away and put into racist museums so people can learn about racism and how people used to think it was cool to own other people, and how they fought and died for their right to own other people and how they lost that war, and how its not ok to own other people anymore because of it.

In my apparently idiotic opinion, they probably should have. I make one exception, and that's if a monument was made for the vanity of one singular person and for no other reason. And even then I still think they should be preserved, just remove them from the public eye.

>>742132612

It's destruction of history. You say racist. Someone else says it's a monument to the people who died in the nation's bloodiest conflict. Who cares what they died for, it's their monument, it was for them, not for you.

Actually, fuck you. You see, the only people who should have a say is the people that live in that state or county. They are the tax payers, this is public property that was destroyed and everyone who was involved should be prosecuted. I believe in local control but a libtard like you wouldn't understand that (you probably rent too). If this was so important it could be brought up for a vote to remove by the locals (not bused in virgins).

You have exactly ten minutes to explain why an enemy of the USA should be honored by a statue and treated with respect? These men were traitors to the Union and are in no way heroes deserving of being honored. Would you defend an Osama Bin Laden statue in New York? How about a Stalin statue in DC?

in the 1860s a white flag meant that a cease fire was desired
this cease fire was usually called for to remove the dead and injured from the battle field
but was also commonly used to discuss a preliminary treaty w/o either side surrendering
the only time this cease fire was used to offer a total surrender was when the unit's commander felt that retreat and victory were impossible

Well some fucktards decided to hold a torchlight rally to "unite the right" which in this instance actually meant the Klan, neo Nazis you the "alt right" and various subgroups there of. Their goal was to unite around this statue which the city had voted to remove and put in a friggin museum. This ended very badly for all involved. Now because of the criminal act of an insane right wing fuckboi the extreme left are literally tearing down statues.

A gunman opened fire on a Republican congressional baseball team practicing on a suburban Virginia field Wednesday, critically wounding Louisiana Rep. Steve Scalise and shooting four other people as horrified legislators and staffers scrambled for cover amid a barrage of bullets.

I have been. This thread is me blowing off steam about it. I live in Kansas City. No Confederate statues here. Only standing monuments to the Confederates in Missouri are at cemetery's where they are buried. They took one out of saint Louis already. So I have to try to convince people from the south that they should push to preserve the history in a museum as opposed to either destroying it or keeping it in place permanently. Problem is this often means transferring them to a sort of way station. A storage site. This is because it's hard to get places to take them given the current political climate.

It doesn't have the opposite effect. Alt-right demonstrations have the opposite effect of exposing the worthless cunts and diminishing their support. Hate speech is speech that advocates attacking or dehumanizing a group of people, they don't label anything at all hate speech, only actual hate speech, you liar. They aren't rying to censor history, they are trying to keep it in the past. Confederates belong in a history book, not a modern monument. Monuments are for heroes, not villains. They are not emboldening, that's what the pro-alt-right people have been doing, and their fascist advocacy is an enormous problem that we now have to resolve. You're just trying to stop the good guys from fighting the bad guys you cunt shill.

That phrase is usually intended as a caution not to trust the one-sided narrative written by the winners.

In my own opinion, if slavery had never existed, the North and South still would have had a civil war just due to the power shift when the agrarian South found itself just becoming nothing more than a resource basket for the industrialized North, with no real say in the government.

Conservatives wouldn't have had many statues to tear down either; don't know of many union general statues outside of Washington D.C.

As wrong as slavery was, it was nevertheless promised to the South in the Constitution. They wouldn't have ever signed on if that promise hadn't been made to them. They sought to leave when it became clear that things were moving towards that promise being rescinded. If that was the intent, they never should have been invited in to begin with.

Your freedoms are granted to you by the Federal government you fucking twat - not by your neighbors. If you want to assemble and more people want to stop you, that shit is going to happen. That isn't fascism, it is the will of the people.

Let me know when daddy Trump steps in and blocks you from assembling - I will be right next to you protesting that noise. But until then, I hope all of you faggots find nothing but failure at the hands of the sane American public.

But they don't have to because it's the state governments right. Confederacy was wrong, so? People who find that that history cool and intriguing love looking at that stuff and don't go tearing down union statues either. But I seem to recall some hippies tearing down government property one time recently in north Carolina.

Nazis are not. If you march next to a Nazi, you are going to be lumped in with them. This isn't hyperbole about the alt-right or Republicans - I am talking about actual marches with actual Nazis. If you march with a Nazi, you are going to be seen as one. That has consequences.

I don't give a shit about who is tearing down what. The confederacy was created for the preservation of slavery and they fought a war for it. Every single secession document mentions slavery. That should not be venerated with statues and minorials in public spaces. It should stay in history books, media and classrooms.

People are missing the point of why they did this in the first place. This moment represents a people striking down a monument that represents a broken,evil, of whitch they want to put in the past.

Honestly, the nerds are the only ones who should even be allowed to have any iinput into this debate. And all the Civil War needs I know usually have both a favorite Union and Confederate general, and are able to take an objective and contextualized approach to understanding the motives and lives of the people who were involved, much in the way that the generals themselves seemed to have a certain measure of respect for each other despite being on opposing sides.

Defeated countries have memorials to their war dead. Japan has their shrine that pisses off the Chinese and Koreans. The former confederate states were allowed to do the same, not necessarily because they were regarded as a legitimate country as the CSA, but because of the understanding of the time that the individual States themselves (both Northern and Southern) were sort of mini-countries in their own right. People today can't wrap their head around that and just think of it as being like 50 provinces, but that is not at all how people thought for the first century+ of American history. The best I can compare the feeling to is like the Chinese government cracking down on Hong Kong lately.

Yeah it's pretty shitty that happened but it did, and a shit ton of people died. It was the only war fought on our own soil against our own families.

One sec, gonna blow up Mount Rushmore because there's a slave owner on it.

you just named four crimes with clear cut victims, your logic does not apply to taking down a statue in a public setting (i.e. not private property)

the only valid reason to support keeping confederate statues intact is sincere belief that treason in defense of slavery was good

Why should I pick? The neonazis are retarded because Nazism is retarded, and the liberal statue protesters are retarded for getting offended by civil war statues. The rational thing is to move the statue to a private collection or into storage until a suitable relocation can be found.

All illegals protesting , "he's not my President ", you're correct! He isn't. Go back to your own country and protest your leaders.

The only people that should be bitching are the American Indian tribes early settlers decided to massacre to take over this country. Last I looked, they run their own reservation with its own rule of law. I bet money they're laughing at the 'white man' now.

If the South won the war and built a glorious history for themselves, then they can keep their statues. But they chose treason, they got crushed -- rightly -- and then they spent the next 100 years waging a terrorist campaign against free southern blacks. Fuck these faggots and their false idols.

The Union didn't give a fuck about the slaves, all they wanted was a larger role for the fed. Even Lincoln said that if he could free the blacks then great, if he can't, then it's still great. Besides slavery would still be abolished by the confederates later on. If you think that a person who supported slavery should be rid of their physical history, then why not remove George Washington's face off the one dollar bill or remove Benjamin Franklin from the 100 dollar bill considering that they both owned slaves. They're not the only founding fathers that owned slaves too, there's plenty more. Oh and the constitution stated that the country was made for Whites. Does that mean you should destroy the constitution for not stating that it was also for blacks? Fucking liberal shills go back to lefty pol
