There is a growing debate in America regarding the status of Confederate Civil War Statues.
Some people believe they should be taken down because they represent nothing more than racism and slavery.
This debate has attracted the attention of Richard Spencer who led a torchlight protest in defense of the statues.
WATCH my video to see what these statues actually represent to people from the South, and why I lean towards keeping them up and protecting Southern history and culture.
ISIS routinely destroys historical evidence of the past. Today it’s confederate statues, tomorrow Mt. Rushmore? Afterall, two of the presidents on Mt. Rushmore owned slaves. Will we see them blown up like the Buddhas of Afghanistan, or the relics of Palmyra?
I was in Montreal when the Parti Quebecois first came to power and the statue of Horatio Nelson was removed from Nelson Square in front of the Nelson Hotel. All Montreal streets with English names (including Craig Street) have been re-named in the ensueing cultural purge.
The day will come when political correctness and SJWs will be remembered for the absurdity they are and they will not be commemorated either.
