Good thing is even children seem to understand there is a difference between public statues and museums and history books. "Towns still have public statues of guys who wanted to make (friend's name) great great whatever grandparents stay as slaves? That's crazy." -12 year old boy

You, Spence, and I can have a reasoned discussion on why or why not a Confederate statue should be moved or not, and maybe even understand some of the history there. You would think a politician could too, right? Where are the reasoned politicians?

We are way out of balance right now

What would the 12 year old boy think would be different about the public statue if it were placed in a museum?

Nothing last forever.. American has changed constantly since it inception and ever generation has complained about the future generations and how their ways of thinking were going to destroy the American life as they saw it. From the transitions from horse to automobiles to elvis's evil girations to that horrible rocknroll or gray marriage.. Americas future is no longer in our hands we had are bite at the apple ... restiance is futile.. change will happen quietly or by force History is full of examples of both ..

When you have leaders Like Trump who got elected on the idea of overthrowing the system ..( he wants to reverse Time) it's hard to complain when others disagree and want to see some of that system changed ,, ..not suprising the parts Trump wants to keep are thoses who he thinks have the power to keep him in power like doj military the police.and the tough people ... discredit the press history is full of people like Trump. Just not that many have been Americans ... so Trump has another 1st under his belt

So why are you bothering to post so often? Are you just trying to tell us that our opinions are futile? Doesn't the same apply to your opinions?

It does? I suppose I should be flattered that I'm important enough for you to bother. But isn't your effort misplaced on a political forum?
