I guess not. It does prove this is not about slavery, however.

Eh....that's arguable. Lincoln did things for political reason. The EP didn't free slaves of border states


The 13 Amendment, maybe?

This movement is Marxist Bolshevik, as admitted by the BLM leadership.

If the USA can't repulse this revolutionary attack, the Union really wasn't that strong.

Dude I said Ulysses.

The implication being these idiots don’t know one name from another.

Grant either bought him or he was a gift from his father in law in 1858. William Jones, age 35. Grant did free Jones in 1859. Grant married into a family of slave owners and slaves actually built his house that was located near his father in laws plantation. Grant managed the slaves for a time on his wifes familial estate. It is widely known that Grant worked along side the slaves on that plantation for a while.

That being said, I do not agree that they destroyed the statue. Grant kept his word on the subject that Confederate generals could not be tried for treason based on the terms presented to them at Appommatox. When Johnson threatened to arrest Lee, Longstreet and other Confederates Grant confronted him and threatened to resign. Grant actually stuck his finger in Johnson face and basically threatened him. Johnson backed off quickly. I respect Grant for keeping his word.

Y'all can spin it however you want, the Southern Democrats formed the Confederacy in large part, to maintain the Slave trade. This is undeniable fact. Those Democrats attacked the United States.

Abraham Lincoln, his Republican led government and his alcoholic general kicked the CSA's racist asses and freed the slaves. Also undeniable fact.

Not at all.

Im tired of Democrats hiding their true identity and trying to put it on "Republicans" and "the White Man"

Publicize the truth about the Democrats and suddenly the Confederacy will be forgotten
