I'm not KKK, I just want to preserve my heritage...
...say the alt-right marchers from Charlottesville.
Ahhh yes...the "Lost Cause."
Well listen up motherfuckers. The heritage you want to preserve is a heritage of racism, lynch mobs, and treason.
It's the heritage of Shawn Berry, Lawrence Russell Brewer, and John King...heritage guardians who offered James Byrd, Jr a ride home, beat him half to death, pissed on him, chained him to the back of their pick-up truck, and dragged him around the back roads of Jasper Texas until his body hit the edge of a culvert and his head was severed. The perps copped that they had slashed Byrd's throat and that he was already dead when they chained him to the pick-up. But autopsy results found that during the dragging, Byrd was alive and had attempted to keep his head off the ground until the culvert ripped it off.
Take your heritage and stuff it up your ass.

In that most of these statues were erected during the Jim Crow and Civil Rights eras, these eras of white supremacy are exactly the eras they wish to preserve. With Trump's help, of course. MAGA indeed.

I can tell you that a whole lot of VOTERS feel that exact way.
The left has learned nothing. Leave the fucking statues alone. Why didn't Obama make taking him down his cause ? Because they weren't bothering anything.
You will get Trump crammed right back down your throat.
Again.

You know who also thought that these 'Lost Cause' monuments were shit?
Robert E. Lee himself.

Lee was dead before the Lost Cause myth was born. You could say the historical revision began with his death.

The Lost Cause started when the first shell fell on Fort Sumter in Charleston Bay, mon capitaine.

They don't bother me or you. They bother our black fellow citizens. After what the country has put them through, their desire to remove vestiges of the Jim Crow and Civil Rights eras is fully understandable.

It's the vestiges of slavery that are being removed.

Yes and no. Most of the statues were indeed erected during the Jim Crow and Civil Rights eras, but both eras were vestiges of slavery.
