Breitbart has published a two-sided debate regarding the dismantling of Confederate monuments across the South, and columnist Jarrett Stepman is arguing that the monuments should be protected, not destroyed.
The issue is a sensitive one for many in the south. While current supporters for the Confederacy have largely clung to the idea because of family lineage or southern pride, many have tried to hijack symbols of the Confederacy for purposes of racism and violence.
Those people have largely won, as Confederate symbols across America have fallen in a stunningly quick fashion.
But now that time has passed from the shooting in Charleston, many are looking back at what may have been an altogether too-quick knee-jerk reaction by the country and the south, and wondering if the erasure of the Confederacy from our history was wise.
Stepman argues that America doesn’t need to fundamentally change and transform our history, but rather transform out future. Read his thoughts on the next page:
WANT TO HELP TAKE BACK CONTROL OF OUR GOVERNMENT from the corrupt politicians and put the power back in the hands of WE, THE PEOPLE??? Want the government to DEFEND, PROTECT and ABIDE by the CONS$#%&!@*UTION??? Want to have a strong and proud MILITARY, increase their pay and improve their VA benefits??? Want to deport ALL illegals, and muslims who do not assimilate into OUR way of life??? Want to make AMERICA strong again??? Want to feel safe in your own country??? Want to reform tax laws??? YOU can make this happen and HERE’S HOW: “By calling a convention of the states, we can stop the federal spending and debt spree, the power grabs of the federal courts, and other misuses of federal power. The current situation is precisely what the Founders feared, and they gave us a solution we have a duty to use.” http://www.conventionofstates.com ……read and share with everyone!!!

Defracing the monument was criminal and racist.
History is not racist. It is something to look back on and learn from. The person who wrote that it’s racist is nothing but a wannabe revisionist.
They are slaves to welfare and other gov’t hand outs, just to damn dumb to know it.
I love history so Stop! Damn it!
To the contrary, Allen. We thrive on facts, among which is military history. And by the way we don’t want to limit your second amendment rights. Well, some do. Most don’t. We do think it would be a pretty good idea to enforce the laws we have but your beloved Representatives need to fund law enforcement for that to happen, and even then it will never make 100%.
we sould find whom ever did that to the monument an skin them then hang them
F**k you liberal cunts
Screwed the line up. Should be “The Political Parties. . .,” Get it right.
