This is a complete travesty. Elizabeth Warren is one vile piece of you know what. Shame on the lawmakers who passed this.
I agree history good or bad should never be erased. Bad history should never be honored.Sorry don't forget any American history, Lafayette, and the American revolution history says we were likely to have lost with out him, that's why history good or bad should never be erased.I could give a fuck about the Romans or the English. The point is that there are no memorials to them and if there are they need to come down.That's horseshit. What about the Romans. They practiced slavery. Are they all vermin because of that?" The South lost. "Well, why? The South lost. I gotta tell ya that I've been to Vicksburg countless times, Bulls Run, Antietam and Gettysburg ….. and the issue is sacrifice and bravery.I saw an outstanding quote somewhere the other day that went something like this.You're treating a petulant child as an adult. LOLShow me one confederate state that didnt list slavery. Also I am sure you are familiar with the Cornerstone address right? They were speaking for all confederate states. Sorry dude. You just dont know what the fuck youre talking about.That was one state. Other states listed numerous reasons.It was the first, second, and third reason listed you fucking idiot.That was one reason out of several, dumbass. Furthermore, that isn't why Lincoln launched the war against the South. Lincoln didn't give a damn about the slaves.You fucking idiot. Its even in their articles of seccesion.Wrong, moron.You fucking retard. They fought because they wanted slavery to stay as it was. Your alternate facts are bullshit.Most ppl in the south never seen a black before, and were fighting ppl because they showed up on there land, the war had nothing to do with slavery, it was states rights. More economic power to control the goods.Lol you need to get a history lessonHonoring those patriots who fought for the security and preservation of the United States is one thing and Americans should never forget them or their sacrifices.We have to learn about our history, honor those that fought and learn from mistakes made so many years ago.
Honoring TRAITORS of the United States who took up arms against this Nation and the Constitution to create their own Slave Nation separate and apart is anathema to all reasonable and honorable conduct!Really? Well why don't you point out EXACTLY what is wrong in what I wrote and be specific...very specific, boi!Lol you need to get a history lesson
" Our position is thoroughly identified with the institution of slavery-- the greatest material interest of the world. Its labor supplies the product which constitutes by far the largest and most important portions of commerce of the earth. These products are peculiar to the climate verging on the tropical regions, and by an imperious law of nature, none but the black race can bear exposure to the tropical sun. These products have become necessities of the world, and a blow at slavery is a blow at commerce and civilization. That blow has been long aimed at the institution, and was at the point of reaching its consummation. There was no choice left us but submission to the mandates of abolition, or a dissolution of the Union, whose principles had been subverted to work out our ruin. "
Cornerstone Speech - Wikipedia

Stephens' speech declared that disagreements over the enslavement of African Americans were the "immediate cause" of secession and that the Confederate constitution had resolved such issues, saying:
The new Constitution has put at rest forever all the agitating questions relating to our peculiar institution—African slavery as it exists among us—the proper status of the negro in our form of civilization. This was the immediate cause of the late rupture and present revolution. Jefferson, in his forecast, had anticipated this, as the "rock upon which the old Union would split." He was right. What was conjecture with him, is now a realized fact. But whether he fully comprehended the great truth upon which that rock stood and stands, may be doubted. The prevailing ideas entertained by him and most of the leading statesmen at the time of the formation of the old Constitution were, that the enslavement of the African was in violation of the laws of nature; that it was wrong in principle, socially, morally and politically. It was an evil they knew not well how to deal with; but the general opinion of the men of that day was, that, somehow or other, in the order of Providence, the institution would be evanescent and pass away. [...] Those ideas, however, were fundamentally wrong. They rested upon the assumption of the equality of races. This was an error. It was a sandy foundation, and the idea of a Government built upon it—when the "storm came and the wind blew, it fell."
I'd agree that slavery really was "the issue." All issues had, at the heart, slavery.
But I don't see Warren opposing statues to dead confederates on civil war parks. I'd be against that, if she were.
"We cant begin to dismantle white supremacy if we are still celebrating the symbols that applaud the belief in white supremacy."
So let those civil war parks exist on private land and remove the tax payers burden to support the up keep and maintenance of confederate statues.
I think it's too bad that southern states have successfully removed most sites connected with slavery. At the Univ of Va there were slave sites. I read that at Monticello they've ucovered Sally Hemmings living spaces. We need more history, not less. But we need to be honest about our history. And yes the WH was built partly with slave labor
Exactly. Their ideology should also lose. To honor those that fought for that ideology is to keep that ideology alive. You cant seperate the two because of the way the human mind works. We dont need memorials to remember history. Put it in a history book. Teach it to the children so they never forget but to honor that ideology or the people that fought for it is a constant slap in the face for Black americans. White people love to tell Black people to "let it go" in regards to slavery. In return we say show us by letting go of the ideology that the very same traitors and enslavers that created and fought to maintain slavery should be honored in any way.
How about the English? The established slavery in this country. They also has slavery in their sugar plantations in the carribean for centuries. Are they all scum forever?
You're obviously just trying to keep the hatred alive for the sake of electoral success. There's nothing noble nor admirable about your motives.
This is a complete travesty. Elizabeth Warren is one vile piece of you know what. Shame on the lawmakers who passed this.
They have passed nothing yet. Killer amendments will be added to the bill so it will not pass. Filibuster if it must come to that. No reason to change names. Sure as the fuck don't try to rename them after civil rights people.

I'd agree that slavery really was "the issue." All issues had, at the heart, slavery.
But I don't see Warren opposing statues to dead confederates on civil war parks. I'd be against that, if she were.
"We cant begin to dismantle white supremacy if we are still celebrating the symbols that applaud the belief in white supremacy."
So let those civil war parks exist on private land and remove the tax payers burden to support the up keep and maintenance of confederate statues.
I think it's too bad that southern states have successfully removed most sites connected with slavery. At the Univ of Va there were slave sites. I read that at Monticello they've ucovered Sally Hemmings living spaces. We need more history, not less. But we need to be honest about our history. And yes the WH was built partly with slave labor
Exactly. Their ideology should also lose. To honor those that fought for that ideology is to keep that ideology alive. You cant seperate the two because of the way the human mind works. We dont need memorials to remember history. Put it in a history book. Teach it to the children so they never forget but to honor that ideology or the people that fought for it is a constant slap in the face for Black americans. White people love to tell Black people to "let it go" in regards to slavery. In return we say show us by letting go of the ideology that the very same traitors and enslavers that created and fought to maintain slavery should be honored in any way.
How about the English? The established slavery in this country. They also has slavery in their sugar plantations in the carribean for centuries. Are they all scum forever?
You're obviously just trying to keep the hatred alive for the sake of electoral success. There's nothing noble nor admirable about your motives.
Move our, I honor it
This is a complete travesty. Elizabeth Warren is one vile piece of you know what. Shame on the lawmakers who passed this.
They have passed nothing yet. Killer amendments will be added to the bill so it will not pass. Filibuster if it must come to that. No reason to change names. Sure as the fuck don't try to rename them after civil rights people.
Senate GOP leaders buck Trump on base names - Roll Call
In a break with President Trump, Senate GOP leaders suggested support for reexamining U.S. military bases named after Confederate generals.
Civil Rights people would actually be the best names. They are the ones that fought for freedom and equality across the board. The current traitor names fought to enslave people. Totally against the american way.
Most of them were communist agitators supported by the Soviet Union at a time when USSR was putting offensive nuclear weapons on island of Cuba and had over 11,000 nuclear warheads pointed at the United States.
Thats not what my parents told me. They told me that was just a claim ignorant people like you used to smear them. COINTEL PRO
.COINTELPRO - Wikipedia
COINTELPRO (syllabic abbreviation derived from COunter INTELligence PROgram) (1956–1971) was a series of covert and illegal[1][2] projects conducted by the United States Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) aimed at surveilling, infiltrating, discrediting, and disrupting American political organizations.[3][4] FBI records show that COINTELPRO resources targeted groups and individuals that the FBI deemed subversive,[5] including feminist organizations,[6] the Communist Party USA,[7] anti–Vietnam War organizers, activists of the civil rights movement or Black Power movement (e.g. Martin Luther King Jr., the Nation of Islam, and the Black Panther Party), environmentalist and animal rights organizations, the American Indian Movement (AIM), independence movements (such as Puerto Rican independence groups like the Young Lords), and a variety of organizations that were part of the broader New Left. The program also targeted the Ku Klux Klan in 1964.[8]

Throughout its 95-year history the Communist Party USA has always been in the vanguard of the struggle for African American equality. In fact, Black communists and white communists alike - sometimes alone, sometimes in broad-based coalitions - led the fight against Southern lynch law and Jim...

I know its wrong to do so, but I relish the moments when 'MS Cleo' (aka Asclepias) makes 'declarations of 'fact'' based on nothing but his own ignorance-based, biased opinion, only to be proven wrong...over and over...with actual evidence.Suck on it, dumbfuck:So you got caught in another lie huh? You need to get better if youre going to keep this up.It was banned and then Amazon backed down after the furor erupted.Now why would someone want that shitty book?View attachment 351130View attachment 351127Amazon banned Mein Kampf, moron.Banning movies ( Gone With the Wind) and books (Tom Sawyer) etc already happening.Except that you Stalinist creeps are only a few steps removed from book burning."They can destroy monuments, but that does not change our history."Rioting, looting, and murder moves on to grave desecration.
Been a seriously frightening couple of weeks.
Welcome to Liberal Progressive Democratic Party Rule.
They are finally getting to try to destroy / erase all of this nations' history / culture, any reminder of who we are, where we came from, and how far we have come.
They can destroy monuments, but that does not change our history.
My point exactly. As long as its written somewhere you can fondly reminiscence on what coulda been.
Banned? Hardly. They're still for sale. But so is Mein Kampt.
Robot Check
Not sure. The point is that it is not banned. Amazon Prime says I can have a copy at my door on Thursday. Might not be in the school library, and I'm good with that.
Amazon Bans, Then Reinstates, Hitler’s ‘Mein Kampf’
