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.

Leave these historical monuments alone. Only the commies that want to erase our history want them gone. Soft brained morons.

Robert E. Lee to this day is considered to be the finest Cadet to have Graduated from West Point. If the South would have won the War Slavery still would have ended. It was time for it to end. What a terrible scar on Our Nation’s History. Lee was on the wrong side but Lee was still a Patriot and believed He was doing the right thing as many have throughout History. It would take days to list Historical figures who done much worse than Lee. Yet Their stories will be forever remembered. History is Violent People. That is just the way it is!
What is amazing is that a tiny minority is causing all this! OUTRAGEOUS!!!
Put that statue in my front yard…l’d be proud to show it off
