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.

They are trying to wipe out history . This is a communist thing . Our children do not know our history very well if this is to become a practice of all who disagree with what happened before they were born .
I’ll give it a good home give it to me
The politically correct bastards want to erase ir change history. This is totally wrong.
Awful!
Very bad idea , that is history but the liberals are trying to run everybody’s life like they were in charge of the world , their c**p has to stop or they will over run the whole county , you think Isis is bad look what the libs are doing same as Isis no difference
Sad sad sad
DO NOT REMOVE THIS HISTORY.
I’m guessing the razing of Monticello, Montpelier and Mt. Vernon will be next. We’ll have to relocate all the veterans in Arlington, disassemble the Washington monument, developed parchment-colored liquid erase to apply over the signatures on the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, Bill of Rights…
Virginia needs a new governor and senator!
Insane
