Sticksboi05 Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 (edited) Just seeing the words Lost Cause should trigger you to realizing you're about to read a bunch of mental gymnastics and outright lies. Also, one thing people need to understand that shouldn't have to be explained – just because something is reactionary doesn't mean it's wrong. Yes, we're reacting to an incident in Charlottesville, but yes, these statues should've probably already been removed. Only in America has the losing side been able to rewrite history for so long. Amazing for a nation that has proven to value winning at basically all costs. Edited August 23, 2017 by Sticksboi05 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Llevron Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 ESPN is good for a few stupid things a year. Yall remember when they had 'A Chink in the armor' for Lin a few years ago? ESPN totally has zero regard for this kind of stuff. I actually think they enjoy the controversy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kilmer17 Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 The idiocy comes to my town! http://www.bradenton.com/news/local/article168613042.html Commission votes to move Confederate monument from courthouse BY HANNAH MORSE hemorse@bradenton.com AUGUST 22, 2017 11:41 AM BRADENTON The Manatee County Commission decided to move the Confederate monument from historic courthouse grounds into storage Tuesday after an evening of protests and marches. The motion was carefully crafted out of concern for the safety of Manatee County residents and to ensure the statue would be moved to an “equally prominent and respectful place” that would be determined in a later public meeting. The Veterans Memorial Park in Bradenton and Gamble Plantation Historic State Park in Ellenton were offered as suggestions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
visionary Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 (edited) I was wondering if some areas might start covering up statues. Edited August 23, 2017 by visionary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Llevron Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 I actually much prefer that over removal. Let them exist in shame just like those people who would praise the efforts to go back to the 40's Best Idea yet though is to counter them with newer, much bigger, statues of people who helped bring the would together. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Springfield Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 (edited) I just came up with a great argument for these ****tard traitors to our country (which I am sure has been brought about way better than me)... How can you be sympathetic to the Confederacy AND be the party of Lincoln? Edited August 23, 2017 by Springfield 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The republicans like to tout Lincoln to prove to people that they aren't racists though (let's not mention that the parties essentially flipped platforms in the 1900's).

I suppose that insulting post was meant to get a rise out of me. I like this swamp hole. You should come spend time here and meet the locals. It it would probably change your opinion on a lot of issues 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
