        Well that's not correct. See, 90% of the confederacy stated they left due to slavery. Slavery was about supremacy more than economics.

        Also, the white supremacists really like waving the confederate flag and the Nazi flag so they really like statues representing losers.

        Therefore the two are linked. Now why should the losers of the civil war be remembered openly? The statues belong in a museum.

        CNN is reporting the statues will be replaced with ones of the Kardashians.

        As of 10 a.m. Eastern, there isn't a deluge of tweets whining about "preserving history" on this tweet. I have hope. #CharlottesvilleVA

        History can't be erased. It's in history books. A statue of someone is saying that this person should B looked up to.

        For all of you screaming "it's erasing history" it's not, the removal of monuments to a time of extreme hatred, is another step of healing.

        And in no way erases history, that history is still there and we should never forget. But aggrandizing these figures needs to end.
