The only Civil War memorial statues should be for those who fought for the Union. Confederates were traitors and shouldn't be memorialized.

Are you serious? Do you even know your American History?

1/ It's in the Constitution -- if a state even threatens to secede it's considered treason. Just because a thing is "history" doesn't make
-
2/ it right or honorable. My ancestors fought in BOTH the Revolutionary and Civil (as Confederates). If the 1st grp could come back
-
I'm sure they'd beat the shit out of the 2nd group for betraying their country. South has plenty to be proud of, don't need to hang on to
-
This shameful part of their history. Think about it.

We have blacks in our family and in our family tree. You don't even know what a racist is.

It should be in a landfill. KY produced four times as many federal troops as Confederates.

Someone that politically sustained a/o fought for slavery is as amoral as slaveowners. Warriors fight to protect Freedom, Family & Friends.pic.twitter.com/SykRSH1CDc

I don't know why someone doesn't propose a *Southern America history museum* to hold all these confederate statues....
-
It might offend someone.
-
Remembered but not celebrated. These statues celebrate the individuals depicted and makes them out to be heros. Put in a museum that 1/2
-
depicts the horrors of that war and the horrors of slavery. Holocaust memorials are memorialize the VICTIMS NOT HITLER. Not equiv at all.
-
To be clear with you. I get where you come from, but the making of a country and it's turmoil is not the same as memorializing a genocide
-
statues of a time in history, can't change or rewrite it. Rather sanctimonious that some are trying to erase it. Probably from out of state
-
Not to change or rewrite it. Just don't think we should have statues honoring traitors/slavers. Put em in a museum. I'm from deep South BTW.
-
I'm from the northeast I don't think it honors them. They're a snapshot of a time in history
