From The Intersection of Madness and Reality:
Since the Confederate flag and all Confederate monuments are about heritage and culture and have nothing to do with slavery or the treasonous acts of thousands of men. Why then aren’t there monuments and statues honoring King George of England? Why then isn’t the British flag being flown in parks and state government buildings here in the United States? Oh, that’s right, the British got their asses kicked, and we don’t fly the flag of losers. But… But.. But, aren’t the British are y’all’s cousins?
Here’s what Donald Trump said in defense of the melee in Charlottesville:
Not all of those people were neo-Nazis, believe me. Not all of those people were white supremacists by any stretch. Those people were also there because they wanted to protest the taking down of a statue, Robert E. Lee. You take a look at some of the groups and you see and you would know it if you were honest reporters, which in many cases you are not.
Many of those people were there to protest the taking down of the statue of Robert E. Lee. This week, it is Robert E. Lee and this week, Stonewall Jackson. Is it George Washington next? You have to ask yourself, where does it stop?
Where are the arguments to support the erecting of monuments to honor the lives of the many Britsh soldiers that died during the Revolutionary War? Aren’t those brave men part of your heritage and culture?
