Texas won our revolution. The Alamo stays. No need to keep monuments for losers. Might as well build a giant participation trophy.


The Alamo was a loss chief. Why honor losers?

We won the first battle. Lost the 2nd. It was also a massacre. And it gave our men the motivation to win San Jacintio. So the Alamo wasn't a loss. It led to the end if the war.

The Alamo was a mission.
It contains a chapel.
The fact that a battle occurred there has never been reason to destroy it.
