I wonder how many statues Trump will get? lmfao I'm sure it would be the biggest and most beautiful in the World. His base gotta have something to fixate on since that whole we have all three branches of Government thing isn't working out too well for them.
How is it not working? I mean the dumbass from kenya's legacy is history. #winning
Same tax code. Obamacare still law of the land. Still in Iraq. Still in Afghanistan.
He's reversed a few late term Obama regs. That's winning?
My brother and I own a farm that the mason dixon line runs thru...we can stand with one foot in the "north" and one foot in the "south"........my dad's people were yankees and my mom's people were confederates...which part of me gets a statue and which part of me gets sued ?........my brother's middle name is also "Lee"....I guess he's screwed
I'm pretty sure I have someone that served in the Union army as well...maybe I'll just get a small statue.
I see the butt hurt is still strong with you....2020 is a LONG way off....lots of vaseline or KY in your future:flush:
we can't give him a statue until we find out about the property distribution....was it true socialism?....if not then no statue!!!!!
The Mason Dixon line is about 300 yds north of the old stone house in my avatar. The bridge in the background is in PA.
our farm is in Proctor near the wetzel county and marshall county line...there is a marker on Rt 2 that the state put up.....inside the plexiglass case is the actuak marker that was moved several hundred feet from our property to the highway for public viewing...we discovered the marker about 40 years ago while squirrel hunting
There is one, in front of the Greenbrier County library in Lewisburg: http://wvhistoryonview.org/catalog/wvulibraries:3862
I have ancestors who fought on both sides. Both of my dad's great-grandfathers were Rebels; his dad's grandfather died in a Union prison camp in Georgia after being exchanged. His mother's grandfather was a Rebel cavalryman from Greenbrier County. My mom's great-grandfather was in the first Union regiment to get to the top of Lookout Mountain. We can't help what our ancestors did, but we don't have to act like the ones who fought against the United States were some kind of heroes on a higher plane. That said, the whole issue of statues is a local affair -- they were put there by local citizens, mostly during the height of Jim Crow to re-emphasize which race called the shots, and if local citizens now vote to remove them, so be it. Those people who tore down the statue in Durham, NC should do jail time and have to pay to have it replaced.

I agree, local issues. Why were folks from the west coast in Charlottesville worrying about a statue there? It seems to be an issue made bigger by the growing sense of insecurity among whites who are hurting and who feel vindicated that Trump won.
