        It's actual the US of A and not America. America would include Canada, Central and South America. This country was founded on this logic.

        So now we're like 1914 Russia - tearing down monuments to erase histories of our political opponents. Can't imagine how that could go wrong

        There's plenty of Confederate stuff in museums, where it belongs. Statues are for people we are to admire. Why admire treason?

        That's a monument to the common soldier built by veterans after the war. They deserve their marker. Obey the laws - Durham was anarchy

        Would you be ok with Munich putting up statues to the SS? Nanking putting up statues of Japanese soldiers? Context matters.

        They have markers, statues, weapons, uniforms, letters, and more in museums - where it belongs. May I remind you these people were traitors?

        Please head to England and find me statues of American Revolution heroes on their streets. I'll save you the money, you won't.

        Not even remotely the same argument. But if a saint wanted to enslave black people and formed a treasonous gov't in support- YES fuck him
