Big Scrub doesn't really fall neatly into the "liberal" category. More of a "Big Scrub" category.

Why we we have Columbus day and why is there a Columbus circle in NYC?
Millions died because of that man.

You think common sense and respect had any chance of prevailing in either case?

So you don't understand the concept of honoring an honorable foe that you defeated?
quote:These "honorable men" are famous almost entirely because they led a failed traitorous rebellion. Nothing else.
Or more likely you're just stupid and don't realize that there were honorable men who fought for the South during the Civil War

By that token Martin Luther King is famous because he was assassinated. Nothing else. Let's take down all MLK statues and rename all schools and streets named after him.
Do you see where this sort of asinine "logic" can lead?

We should have just won the fricking war then we wouldn't have to deal with this shite.

Robert Edward Lee was an American general known for commanding the Confederate Army of Northern Virginia in the American Civil War.
Funny how that bold word shows up on his as it did with the others in your earlier post.

Hope is great, but it isn't reality.

Are you historically illiterate? Up until his assassination Martin Luther KIng was a bit player in events. That's a fact. That is not to say had he lived he would have remained a bit player, but his assassination is what made him a household name.

They had their homes and economies destroyed under orders of the US govt then weren't allowed to have a say in their own land for almost 2 decades. They paid their dues and then some. I'd want something to give me a little honor in the wake of a crushing and humiliating defeat too.

It is when you make it reality. Because if it cannot become reality then it is not hope, it is foolishness.
A New Hope.
Hope and Change.
Hopelessly devoted to you...
I miss NT74
Are we doing like that play where two Florida players blocked each other?

I'd fight for Robert E Lee's ghost if it showed up today and wanted to lead a rebellion.

That is so untrue that it must have been indoctrinated into you by a very bitter racist.
