Another Traitor Monument Comes Down

[MAGA MAN]

"They fought for the side of evil" = they were on the side that wanted to preserve slavery as an economic and social way of life. However, they "were sold the bill of goods that they were fighting for "state's rights" and "freedom for our way of life."

In other words, they were lied to by the Confederate powers that be.

You appear to be agreeing with my position.

Any Confederate who fought against
his country should have lost their land,and the land resettled by Northern vets or freed slaves.

Your post is completely devoid of logic...

You didn't like the freed slaves part.

 

[katzgar]

With grammar like that, it's obvious that you have not read much, let alone about history.

All you got is more bullshit

That made more sense than the "northern vets" part, but it was still devoid of logic...

I have common sense and facts. Sucks to be you. LOL

Not logic,punishment for treason.
But what the fuck.Carpet baggers got most of their land,when they came back from war and couldn't pay their taxes

You're forgetting (or were never taught) that all Confederate soldiers where issued pardons and enjoyed the same distinction and benefits as all US veterans. Maybe you should stick to race-baiting.

Did that pay their taxes when they came home penniless?

I'm sure that the vast majority didn't own land to pay taxes on. And taxes here are a fraction of what the Yankees pay, so there's that.

So I'm thinking that your assertion is unfounded.

So you never heard of Carpet baggers?sad!

So your assertion is unfounded then.

Not at all it's a fact many Southerners lost their land to taxes.
And the land was bought up by Carpet baggers.

The south has no heritage worth celebrating. That doesn't mean it can't start building one today.

No one is celebrating. Most of those monuments were there during the civil rights era. No one bitched then. Why now? Just leave it alone.

Earlier you said "vets".

that's simple, because they have been triggered, TDS is the new black.

Liberals are like children who didn't get their way, they pick up things and throw them across the room because no one will pay attention to their whining.

?? Just read in another thread you advocating reforming them etc. Not punishment??

Shooting them was not a realistic prospect even then - that was an expression of my emotions re slavery, unthoughtout, and of my extreme dislike of statuary!

There was no treason. Leaving isn't treason.
