there is a war on statues now. Durham "confederate statue" was torn down
I'm not so sure that was a confederate monument more like a war memorial for the boys that wore gray.
The boys in grey? The confederate army wore grey. Good, no more monuments honoring losers. Tear them all down, can't happen fast enough.
Baffles me how much liberals enjoy tearing things down and setting things on fire...oh the festering rage, hate, and anger that emanates from polar politics...
Damn straight. Never should have let the statues honoring losers go up after the first time we burned it down. Looks like they didn't learn their lesson and we'll have to do it again. Damn liberals tearing things down and setting things on fire:
Not cool to be toppling statues I'd rather government put plaques up next to them pointing out what the statues represent !
I agree, and many of them do actually do have plaques telling the history...but but "racism" 200 years ago...
Yes General Lee fought to keep people enslaved I'd like to see that next to his statue !
So be it, if that's what happened then put it on a plaque and embed it into the concrete...but people would rather tear it down and forget...
lol "if" yeah ok how about yes it happened
Then put it on the statue...oh wait, it's not there anymore and tearing it down resulted in more death and violence and hate. Great plan that ended up being...
or how about this preposterous idea...in writing denounce slavery and mourn memorialize the dead
I encourage everyone who believes that Trump is a racist, white nationalist and is tone deaf and blind to people who don't look like him, to call the 800 number for the customer service line and encourage these CEOs to resign from Trump's business advisory council.
In other news, Trump's brilliance has really been brilliantly on display so brilliantly that I've been brilliantly blinded prior to the eclipse. Most brilliant president ever elected.
Carl Bernstein reporting that confidence in Trump's ability to be President being seriously discussed in the halls of congress, the corridors of the pentagon and in the warrens of Foggy Bottom. The whispers will become a scream.

Negative... rememberance without reverence. You don't need statues to study the cause of the war. Or is it the Cause to you?
Nope, the cause of war is greed or the inability to compromise...or both.
That would be news to Alexander Stephens, as espoused in the Cornerstone Speech. Alas, I always find it interesting how many people think they know more about the cause of the war than the VP of the Confederacy.
This is the heritage of the war... everything else is noise and revisionism.
The new Constitution has put at rest forever all the agitating questions relating to our peculiar institutions—African slavery as it exists among us—the proper status of the negro in our form of civilization. This was the immediate cause of the late rupture and present revolution. Jefferson, in his forecast, had anticipated this, as the "rock upon which the old Union would split." He was right. What was conjecture with him, is now a realized fact. But whether he fully comprehended the great truth upon which that rock stood and stands, may be doubted. The prevailing ideas entertained by him and most of the leading statesmen at the time of the formation of the old Constitution were, that the enslavement of the African was in violation of the laws of nature; that it was wrong in principle, socially, morally and politically. It was an evil they knew not well how to deal with; but the general opinion of the men of that day was, that, somehow or other, in the order of Providence, the institution would be evanescent and pass away... Those ideas, however, were fundamentally wrong. They rested upon the assumption of the equality of races. This was an error. It was a sandy foundation, and the idea of a Government built upon it—when the "storm came and the wind blew, it fell."
Feels good to be home after seven months, but the White House is very special, there is no place like it... and the U.S. is really my home! Meanwhile: 39 shootings in Chicago this weekend, 9 deaths. No national media outrage. Why is that?

Another example of the brilliance emanating from the white house. .....
Trump cuts funds to fight anti-right wing violence

In the letter published in the Fargo (N.D.) Forum, father Pearce Tefft writes that he and his family "wish to loudly repudiate my son’s vile, hateful and racist rhetoric and actions." The father said he taught all of his children that all men and women are created equal.
Add the Intel Ceo to the list of people leaving the council.
And the CEO of UnderArmour
Yeah he had a lot of negative attention early this year due to his Trump support. And the company has had their ass kicked in the market this year. He doesn't need anymore bad publicity.
