This is an honest question fellas and I’m not looking to start any fights. I am a proud Texan, a former Marine Corps Scout/Sniper Section Leader, a firm believer in our Constitution and our Bill of Rights, and an avid student of our American history.
I have always been sympathetic to the Confederacy but I wonder if that is just because I’m from The South. I have always thought of Robert E Lee, Stonewall Jackson, James Longstreet, JEB Stuart as heroes.
Here is the question I want to ask. Should we be really be making a fight over statues and monuments that honor men that were committed to the breakup of the United States? I understand their reasoning and truly believe that while slavery was a contributing factor to The Civil War, it wasn’t what the average CSA soldier fought for.
Are we are on the right side by opposing the removal of monuments that pay tribute to men that fought against the United States? I personally don’t think they should be removed but how do you guys feel. I’ve found myself wondering if I am right or wrong. Is it the right fight?
