  1. Those tough looking white people kicking and hitting a fallen stone statute as if it was flesh and blood really cracked me up.

      For the first part of the Civil War, the average Rebel soldier in the Eastern Theater carried a rather ancient used Brown Bess smoothbore musket. Effective out to about 150 yards. Ammo for it was rare and often home-made. 

      The average Union trooper carried the modern Springfield rifled musket. It was effective past 400 yards. A hit from its rather large lead slug could rip a soldiers limb off.

      The Rebs won 95% of the battles before 1863...

      How many brave statue destroyers could manage to stand in line long enough to call these men racists or whatever 21st century judgement we're making?

      Slave owners? Perhaps the odd one. Most Confederate rank and file were share-croppers...not much better-off than the slaves they were apparently guilty of owning.

      Ask them to find proof that General Lee was a racist. Antifa idiots.

      Lee was offered the job of commanding the Union forces in the Eastern theater by Lincoln. Lee said he would accept the job if Virginia voted to stay in the Union. It voted to leave...

      Not much separates Blue from Grey.
