Re: Confederate monuments

The city council voted to remove them and place in some sort of historic context location later on

Works for me.

Re: Confederate monuments

so you are going to mention something as if it were some kind of fact, and then when asked to produce something on it you deflect and don't produce anything, and talk about other things to separate yourself from your own postings

I would also point out if you haven't read the articles of secession you really don't know what was going on

Re: Confederate monuments

The best part of Po PO POsting is he gets to shine out to even his con-fed brethren as being pretty low on the totem pole when it comes to being armed with facts and good rebuttals.

I can hear some of them now in the background saying whoa dude, stop it, you're making us look really stoopid. Just stop it.

I've taken on thousands of Lost Causers in my decades, and some come armed with well presented analysis and granular knowledge of the details. Though wrong often, they present their cases well, and I love the challenges they present. Informative and dynamic. I admire them for their abiding to and being accurate (in some cases) to historical fact. Numerous times I can happily report, I've changed some minds, and they've thanked me for the detailed exhanges of which we each benefited greatly.

PO, well, it's like discussing history with an incorrigible warthog, but he does (even if he doesn't know it) help those who lurk, post, and may be vacillating -- to recognize the poverty of his pitiful rebuttals.

For that we should be thankful.

Re: Confederate monuments

I know paying attention and being aware of what's going on isn't really your thing but that's exactly what they're going to do with that

leave them where they are, throwing them in a building is just 'outta sight outta mind'...

Re: Confederate monuments

So, who will admit slavery was bad and that it was a just and inevitable war to free our fellow citizens?

I will.

Most of the ancient world depended on slavery so unless you think that we should had stop at the hunter gather stage slavery was needed until the industrial revolution got firmly underway.

Hell even hunters gathers such as some of the American Indians tribes had slaves they had capture in warfare.

Raiding each other tribes mainly for horses and women.

In other word it not that simple.

Re: Confederate monuments

as slick said, use them to teach, the good and the bad...removing them accomplishes nothing

These monuments don't really teach anything. It's not like battlesites where there are informative plaques and such. It's simply a commemoration of a bunch of people who revolted against the US to try and preserve slavery.

notice this guy goes not address me directly but talks about me indirectly, could it be he's does not want too because he's been shown the civil war is a war of rebellion by the u.s. federal government..library of congress

could it be that congress itself states in 1830 the southern states paid more in taxes then northern states.

why don't you get to point of the matter and be more specific instead of generalizes, what are you trying to convey?

Re: Confederate monuments

That doesn't change the fact that these missions were often irregular in nature and included supporting guerilla forces.

What guerilla forces did those missioms support?

Re: Confederate monuments

Re: Confederate monuments

Actually I'm feeling like my superiority complex is coming out every time I see one of your not so bright posts.

Why does paying homage to White Supremacy need to be "inna mind?"

 

[poweRob]

Re: Confederate monuments

Because of your experience right? Or is it because you just want to believe it...

Yeah, it's the latter.

Read the thread. You'll find out how wrong you are about me. :wink:

Re: Confederate monuments

i wish when you mention things like the 1857 compromise you would make your point on it and covey what you are trying to say, instead of deflecting away from it because you know you don't know anything about such a thing
