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.
Read about the latest Robert E. Lee statue to fall on the next page:
Robert E Lee is an important part of our history. Arlington Cemetery is his home. I think it is important to remember the South as it was as well as what Lincoln diid for the Union. It is all a part of our history. I’m related to John Adams who was on the committee with Jefferson who drafted the Declaration of Independent. She signed the treated that ended the war with England. He was the first Vice President of the United States of America. He was the second President of the United States of America. He was the first president to live in the White House in Washington DC. His son my cousin John Quince Adams also serve as President of the United States of America! So yea I think our history on all sides is important. I wouldn’t call Lee a traitor he was just on the Southern side. My great grandfather was with Sherman’s drive thru the South.
