Nikki Haley started this.

Yes, she did.

They defaced the only Lee statue on the entire Antietam Battlefield

I can’t even bear to go see what was done

Ralph “Blackface” Northam is likewise an agent of the Taliban.

I have a strong urge to go watch “Birth Of A Nation”. I have copies of that movie and of “Song Of The South”, and get this weird feeling that I’d better hide them, the way Christians in muzzie or commie nations have to
hide their Bibles.

The Museum of the Confederacy, The United Daughters of the Confederacy Headquarters, The Virginia Historical Society and any other Civil War museum should all relocate out of Richmond. They should take the statues too and relocate them somewhere safe. Heck they should even move the Confederate White House if possible. It is just a matter of time until these things are destroyed in Richmond, it has already started with the defacing if the statues and the arson attack at UDC Headquarters. Regardless of ideology, these are all historical treasures and should be protected. Let those resources go elsewhere and bring the millions of dollars of tourism income with them.

Just read a history of the surrender at Appomatox and see if you can find anything dishonorable about Lee in that surrender.

"Yes, that statue has been there for a long time. But it was wrong then, and it is wrong now. So we're taking it down," Northam said.

I thought that only communists try to rewrite history. How does Northam know it was wrong in 1887?

He is the most ugly governor I've have experienced in Virginia. Sad.

Just about everything his administration has done goes against natural law, science, and common sense, not to mention the Constitution. Is Northram the enemy of the people?

Wasn’t there a TV show with a car nicknamed General Lee?

Maybe you mean Dylann Roof. But New Orleans started renaming schools almost 30 years ago, so this has been brewing for quite a while.

No, I meant Nikki Haley.

She used the excuse of a flag in the background of a picture of a murderer to kick off this frenzy of history erasing.

That is the behavior of the Taliban.
