hite House chief of staff John Kelly is coming under fire for comments made about the Civil War during an interview that aired Monday night, and some on the Left are accusing the retired Marine Corps general of being racist after he said the Civil War was caused by the “lack of an ability to compromise.”
Fox News host Laura Ingraham asked Kelly about efforts to take down Confederate monuments, and said there is a “lack of appreciation of history” toda

would tell you that Robert E. Lee was an honorable man. He was a man that gave up his country to fight for his state, which 150 years ago was more important than country. It was always loyalty to state first back in those days. Now it’s different today,” Kelly said. “But the lack of an ability to compromise led to the Civil War, and men and women of good faith on both sides made their stand where their conscience had them make their stand.”
Kelly’s comments have sparked backlash, particularly among liberal commentators and writers, as well as Democratic members of Congress

They outright disparaged this man and called him an old school racist. Frick them calling everyone and thing that does not fit their warped narrative-- racist.

It's ignorant, at the very least.

I'm racist.
You're racist.
Everything is racist, so nothing is racist. The word is meaningless now.

White people can't say anything now without black people's approval or coaching.
C'mon, guys. It's 2017. The rules are different now.

They really have it in for him since he lambasted that cowboy hat wearing nut job representative from Florida.

Actually the north attacking fort Sumter led to the civil war

Start with the 3/5 Compromise, then the Missouri Compromise.
I mean "compromise" is right there in their names.

so, all statues should be removed that your warped political party and MSM extension think are offensive? are the statues all meeting in a warehouse to declare war and it won't end well for them?

It's almost like liberals try so hard to find racism everywhere as if their survival depends on its existence.

This is an absolutely 100% accurate statement.

Hasn't that been true for most wars in history?

I don't see anything racist in his comments, but I do think there is a question of whether compromise was possible.

What he said was true but can also be said about every other war.
He never mentioned which side should have comprimised more or over which issue. As a black man I'm not offended at all. Some people are just too sensitive

No it wasn't. There were many compromises in the lead up to the Civil War. Maybe he meant a lack of commitment to prior compromises from either side. That would be accurate. To say there was a lack of compromise couldn't be more wrong.
