https://www.wtva.com/content/news/A...RTI-bActBhunirgxvXKtq9tnFCsNXIt-yAMFG4WUJACKSON, Miss. (AP) — A Mississippi city named after former U.S. President Andrew Jackson will remove a downtown statue of him and put it in a less prominent spot. The City Council in Jackson, Mississippi, voted 5-1 Tuesday to relocate the bronze figure that has stood outside City Hall since the early 1970s. It’s the latest of many changes in the United States as people reconsider monuments to historical figures with connections to slavery and racism. In addition to owning enslaved people, Jackson also oversaw the forced migration of Native Americans in which many died.

Notice the 'forced migration' line too.
Some told me the other day about monuments to Americans that were on the Confederate side "They lost, get over it". Should the same apply to the injuns? They lost, fugg'em

If you are not actively engaging EVERY enemy you encounter... you are allowing another to fight for you... and that is cowardice... plain and simple.

I have read of some loosers in history where every survivor was killed by the victors.

It's not all bad, for example, they're removing many Confederate monuments which should have never been put up or removed decades ago. Having them up is like Russians having statues of General Andrey Andrejevich Vlasov. Ironically he was one of the most capable military leaders in the Soviet Army. Traitors should not be promoted.

I bet you've never been off your knees. Rarely does one see small independent countries. There are some examples: Switzerland, Austria, Turkey, Iran, North Korea,.......We used to kneel before the Soviets now we are kneeling before the Americans.

DF Despite being composed mostly of Scottish-Irish, Irish and Welch the Americans love the British. They even refer to their country as Great Britain even though it is no longer Great. History has shown that the British Government can not be relied upon, their treaties and assurances aren't worth "warm pitcher of spit".

They weren't that revered in 1814, especially in the New Orleans area. Andy even teamed up with pirates to whup'em. And whup'em they did... DF

Johnny Horton's song "Battle of New Orleans" used to be banned in Britain! One member of an elite Brit army unit admitted that they had only retreated twice in their history- - - -Bunker Hill and New Orleans.

Won’t be long before they put Whoopi Goldberg on the $20 I think the $20 that George Floyd tried to pass had her picture on it !
if a man speaks, and there isn't a woman around to hear him, is he still wrong?
