Why Is There Controversy Over Confederate Monuments?

[Divine Wind]

Are you saying "repub nitwits still wish they could own a black or 2" or are you dancing around the issue?

Add to your percentage that only 6% owned slaves. So why were so many Confederates willing to fight and/or die in the Civil War? Was it to defend slavery or to defend their state from Northern aggression?

As we saw in the Civil Rights era, it went beyond those who owned slaves to maintaining a subclass of people that even the lowest white was superior to. No matter how bad I have it...at least I am better than a negro

They fought that battle for another 100 years

Racism is certainly a problem, but neither Southerners or conservatives have a monopoly on it as many of your and other LW posters repeatedly demonstrate. If you don't accept that, then consider studies such as this below:

The most racist places in America, according to Google

There is a big difference between having people who have racist views and having Governments that enact and enforce racist laws....that is what the south had

Correct. Like a government that, in an effort to right all past wrongs institutionalizes racism via a quota system?

You mean affirmative action?
Affirmative action helped all American families and is a reason we have progressed so far in job equality

Helped people through racial selection. It's institutionalized racism. Isn't that what you said?: "There is a big difference between having people who have racist views and having Governments that enact and enforce racist laws"

Dude, you can't end racism by enacting racist laws.

...Everything really shitty that has ever happened in America can be traced back to southern and Midwestern Conservatives

Exactly the type of hatred that drove the North to invade the South in 1861.

Maybe the Con-federates shouldn't have started the war then.

Maybe Lincoln ended it too soon Another month or 2 we might not have problems with racism now

 

[edward37]

Come on divine The south has never lost their hate of the blacks Why do you think the south is always repub and blacks always vote dem?

Again, where do your learn this false information? Your broad brushing of is as peculiar as it is wrong.

Don't you realize how racist it looks when you post things like "blacks always vote dem"?

Divine what % of blacks have voted Dem even before Obama? Is what I said a lie? Or are dems not supposed to utter words like that to embarrass Republicans?

Prove "blacks always vote dem" as you previously posted. If you can't, are you mature enough to admit you posted a racist lie? I'm guessing you are not.

Divine you're picking at straws Nothing is all or always Maybe for you I should have said most and most of the time

Translation: You are correct, DW, I fucking lied my ass off.

I correctly called you on both your lies and your lack of maturity in admitting you lied.

And I suppose you think you're acting with muturity saying that I lied my fn ass off?

By discriminating against a certain race? That fixes discrimination?

Yes it did fix discrimination and held business accountable

After civil rights legislation was passed the reaction of the racists was to proclaim....You can pass all the laws you want, but I will still not hire blacks/women/minorities
Affirmative Action came out as a result. It was a huge success

Got it. Discrimination fixes discrimination.

At least I'm telling the truth, Eddie. You're the one who lied and now refuses to admit it even though everyone on the forum can see you did. How mature is a person who does such a thing?

Sadly, the Totalitarian Socialists don't get it and, it seems, never will.

They believe all should kneel before the Empire.

You are dancing around the issue

They seceded to protect their right to own slaves. They created a nation where 40% of the population was in slavery
That is what you are defending

Are you saying "repub nitwits still wish they could own a black or 2" or are you dancing around the issue?

Add to your percentage that only 6% owned slaves. So why were so many Confederates willing to fight and/or die in the Civil War? Was it to defend slavery or to defend their state from Northern aggression?

Yea...you got him
It is not ALL, it is only 90% that won't vote Republican

Calls for a celebration

If I ever lie, you are free to call me a fucking liar. Words have meaning. It's one thing to make a mistake. It's another to not own up to that mistake.

On forums, we can all claim to be billionaires, brilliant scientists or whatever, but all we really have is our reputation gained through our posts. You have yours and I have mine. People can call us all sorts of names, lie about us, say whatever they want, but over time, each poster on this forum gains a reputation. Right or wrong, in the end, they usually earn that reputation.
