Concerning the monuments "they keep open the sores of war" - Robert E. Lee
Perhaps that's why many of these statues were erected many years later during the height of lynchings and KKK activity in the south.
These statues have not allowed our country to heal from a civil war.

War on what? Being racist? Sounds like we've been needing this one for a while. They sure didn't take the hint when they lost the first time.

You completely missed the point of this and lack the ability to understand sarcasm.

SGT Victoria Belbusti - or perhaps I don't care for your sarcasm, and the greatest insult is to spoil your joke...
