Re: Confederate monuments

It's like watching a fat kid on the monkey bars bounce around and falling all over the place.

Thanks, po PO for the entertainment. I mean that.
 
Re: Confederate monuments

you not quoting me shows you cant deal with the situation

The only "situation" here is you have the mentality of a 12 year old and can't understand the Constitution, US Law and plain language.

Every one resident in this thread can see that. Eat that for dinner.
 
Re: Confederate monuments

You can have your feelings hurt all you want but stats are stats

your continued attempt to not deal with what has been put before you shows, so now you have moved in the emotional world.
 
Re: Confederate monuments

learn the difference between singular and plural. gets back to that education thing

it shows your thinking on other people.
You're trying to ignore an obvious reality if you don't know if that Northerners on average are better educated than Southerners you've been in the Backwoods way too long
 
Re: Confederate monuments

That of course it's just plain made up are you sober?

The only reason you're going on about the Confederate monuments is because you hate Southerners.
 
Re: Confederate monuments

they were not traitors, the civil war was not a war of insurrection, but a war of rebellion

True but that is not how rational people think. If our forefathers had lost the revolutionary war they would have been hanged or shot as traitors. The winners always make sure the losers are depicted as wrong and evil. We have not evolved much since the beginning of recorded history when it comes to the way the winners treat the losers.
 
Re: Confederate monuments

nope, you are making stuff up

I bet I'm not. You probably didn't even know the statues existed, until the removal campaign became news, after the Charleston church shooting.

Re: Confederate monuments

Right, wrong or indifferent, those Confederate monuments are part of the country's history.
Trying to remove part of the country's history is an awful lot like 1984's "Ministry of Truth", dictating what the populace should believe (in their opinion).

The history of the country is the history of the country, and it makes little sense to try and run away from it. It just IS.

Removing the monuments is not removing the country's history. It is absolutely nothing like what is depicted in 1984 to any rational adult.

Removing the monuments is not 'running away' from anything.

Histrionics and false equivalencies do not make for good arguments.

Then you also need to look at the justifications used for removing the monuments. That's little more than Histrionics and false equivalencies as well.

Except, of course, that they're not.

Don't worry, the sky isn't falling. Removing monuments that honor traitors won't cause the fall of the Republic.
