Seriously don't get it.. Grant owed slaves. Lee owned none. But Lee is offensive... if there were a Grant statue or Sherman statue they prob would honor it. People in the 1800s were state loyalists they were fighting for their state like people today fight for their country. Lee didn't believe in slavery but loved Virginia. WTF are people offended by his statue?
