You're melting over statues.

Why weren't they treated as traitors?

Not all. A good bit.

Every "opinion" you have is a plank of the Democratic platform. I differ from the Republicans on a host of issues.

The nation wasn't even 100 years old yet. You are looking at things in retrospect.

Your biggest fallacy is assuming that our conception of nation is the same as it was in 1860. It is not. People were much more loyal to their states than the nation. We didn't truly become THE united states until after the war ended

Traitors to the crown? Umm... Yes they were. How is that even a question?

Those that rose up amongst the colonies against the Crown were traitors as well.

Just pointing that out.

I am not saying dont teach their valor in history class... I am not saying NOMA cant have an exhibit.

We are talking about honoring these men as heroes of the United States. It is treason... And frankly their image is clearly still dividing us as evidenced by this conversation

You need to read up on some history and get some perspective, mate.
