You feel that the people that those statues represent should be defined by one episode in their lives frick anything else they've done or accomplished

Those statues were erected to commemorate one episode in their lives; just look at what Lee is wearing in his statue. Not his West Point uniform, though he spent just as much time there as he did in gray. The message board patriots who whine incessantly about the opposition to these statues fixate specifically on one four-year episode in their ancestry. Furthermore, President Lincoln pardoned these people lest they be defined by one episode in their lives.

So it isn't I who thinks that these people should be defined by one episode in their lives; its you.

Sorry man. We just don't like slavery in this country.
