The Confederacy has long been a controversial topic in the United States. While the state has long been associated with racism and slavery, many modern southerners view the Confederacy as an important part of southern heritage.
Until recently, relics of the Confederate States of America have been allowed throughout the south for historical purposes, but in today’s politically correct climate, many of those monuments have been forcibly removed.
Last year, statues of Robert E. Lee, the commander of the Confederate Army of Northern Virginia, were removed from locals parks in Virgina. The contractor who removed the statues found his Lamborghini torched in response.
Now, more statues of the former general are coming down across the state — at huge cost.

Then remove the newest on in Wash. then.
History cannot be changed, removing states is stupid and don’t change a thing.
Randy has it right. The ‘right of secession’ was original cause and ‘freedom for the slaves’ was propaganda to encourage enlistment ‘to the great cause.’
It’s Americans history. Hands off
A disgrace. Then take down all the MLK statues.
Liberals better wake up. They are aiding Muslims in a takeover of America, something that, if it ever does happen, will be liberals worse nightmare.
The people of Virginia need to rise up and stop this,do like the libs and riot.
Sad day
Stop it now as it is part of the history of our country which should not be denied. Liberals disappear now.
i don’t know who the crying liberals are that’s doing this c**p but their ruining America
