Been saying that forever.
IT WAS FIVE YEARS. There are literally hundreds of historically significant Virginians out there that have absolutely nothing to do with the Confederacy. Educators, Scientists, Statesmen, 17th century, 20th century...the candidates are endless. So much wonderful, positive history that could be signified and learned with a well-considered statue or monument.
And instead, we get JEB Stuart and Jeff Davis shoved down our throat from cradle to grave.
Its pathetic.
