And we tell such stories by the fire. It is almost as if everything that is defining of humanity is interconnected and not some disparate traits.

You still haven't established why this should be done. If anything the civil rights era should have marked the end to this. Uh, no. Lincoln was killed because he upset those with power. And as far as I know it is hazy why MLK was shot, there are some interesting theories on that. No. It is our...

The people who write history write history, which means it gets interesting when the losers get to write it... Because they don't offend the sensibilities of the American left?

Or at least according to history, but that is what matters anyways.

So, we should tear down public monuments because optics? How is that a good argument? And? Just because you feel that way does not give you the right to impose your will on other people. As I said you give an inch and they take a mile. You are just selling other people out to the same mob out...

I am sure, they are going after our founding fathers, and believe they tried that shit in Ukraine (but were repulsed), it is definitely in character for them.

I am pretty sure, as I have already indicated, they already are. And they aren't satisfied with going after people who did something conceivably wrong, they are now targeting people who were exemplary for their time.

And what right do you have to say that or decide it for other people? It is mighty arrogant to make that presumption. No it shouldn't have, and we have covered this before. Why are you so keen on forcing your will on other people? Can't you show some tolerance and accept that people have heroes...

Yes, that is quite cowardly. Proves they know their cause is unjust and unpopular.

No, not good. Iconoclasm is a bad thing.

They don't, the South's history both good and bad is part of its identity. And the problem is that it doesn't matter if these people did anything wrong, people will want to remove the statues, because they want to destroy the past. And also, because some people quite clearly have antipathy...

Or maybe if people left well enough alone, it wouldn't even be a thing, And it is entirely unneeded, people like you just like to poke at things. Yes, we live in a world where people like you want to demolish our heritage and destroy important monuments because it makes them feel bad. Well not...

Just, because you don't want any personal responsibility doesn't mean you still don't want power over other people. Power without responsibility is the very essence of the tyrant. And really, if you don't want power over people why are you trying so hard to enforce your will upon them? To force...

What you want would destroy the USA as a country and utterly destabilize it? Because it sounds like you very much want to do so. Cutting off the nose to spite the face as the saying goes. And to stop a few people from dying unjustly, you are going to kill a few more, because you seem to think...

And there is a problem there, because that means that whatever God says is law is law. Whatever he says is Good is Good. Which is all well and good if you believe in Intellectualism, because God has rules, and sticks to them. Voluntarism...not so much. I honestly don't think divine command is a...

Oh shut up. You are literally casting stones when you live in a glass house. For instance we just found piles of corpses of children next to a residential school- you know one run by the Catholic and Anglican schools. And apparently there are more. Also we cannot forget that mass grave found in...

Just like anyone else. They roll out of bed, and live their life. Soldier on despite what ever issues they face. As I said, like everyone else.
