This is really rich. As a descendent of the Jackson family (now on the conservative side of the tree), the loony Dens want to trash one of their greatest leaders. If they could read, or paid attention in history class, they would know that NOLA would not be there if it weren’t for General Andrew Jackson and his leadership in the War of 1812. These people are just bloody idiots!!!!

This country has never had a civil war. And I hope we don't.

Eventually, New Orleans will also have a group which is powerful in numbers and in an absolute dither about churches and wants to remove all of those also, starting with St. Louis Cathedral. Finally, there will be nothing left without a local government with a spine willing to tell these young people to go pound sand!

Whites will only be pushed so far and then they will harden their attitudes and become a more unified & hardened group.

That's actually the point of these movements. They are trying to goad whites into fighting back, so then they can scream how racist they are and then the clarion call will come for more "civil rights" protections and confiscation of more tax dollars. I really think these black nationalists and other SJWs are being used by leftist elites because inevitably, that's what leftist elites want. None other than Bill Clinton talked about this and said the way to get segregation back is to pretend to be on blacks' side and support them into having their own so-called safe spaces and events, like the black-only graduation at Harvard.

I understand a civil war to be a struggle among internal groups for control of the government.

What is commonly referred to as our civil war was actually a war between 2 separate countries, the USA and the CSA.

It was more similar to our revolutionary war of the late 1700s.

This is my opinion. I may be wrong.
