Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Bye bye Andrew Jackson

Confederate statues, Army bases with Confederate names were conciliatory gestures, designed to help bring the country back together.

So, back out decades of good will, divide it back up and see what gives.

Not gonna be good.

Well, we certinly must get rid of all images of that racist Jackson. If you have any small portraits of him called "Federal Reserve Notes," send them to me and I'll dispose of them for you.

The J-Hole wasn’t named for Andy, so it “should” be safe!

If she is, I'll use it for s h i t paper

When the going to change it to Dante Mississippi?

Confederates were NOT traitors. They NEVER had any intention nor desire to destroy or overthrow the United States government. Many Confederates expressed sadness at secession and expressed this openly. They only wanted to leave the union in peace due to unfair taxation on southern agricultural products, consistent failure to spend public funds on southern public projects, and a general feeling of the Federal government ignoring the rights reserved by the Constitution to the states. Yes, this did also include, but was not limited to the ownership of slaves. Peace commissioners were sent to meet with Lincoln at the formation of the Confederacy, but he steadfastly refused to even see them. It is interesting to note, among other things, the Confederate Constitution was very similar to the United States Constitution. One notable exception is that the Confederate Constitution specifically prohibited the importation of slaves from other nations except those of the United States. There was no such provision of a ban of slave trade in the United States Constitution. Also note that many leaders of the Confederacy were grandchildren of the founders of the United States. Former U.S. President Tyler served as a clerk in the Confederate War Department. Former U.S. Vice President Breckenridge was both a Confederate general officer and Confederate Secretary of War. Confederate President Jefferson Davis was a former U.S. Army officer, U.S. Secretary of War, and son-in-law (by his first wife) of U.S. President and General Zachary Taylor. General Lee was married into and close to the descendants of U.S. President George Washington. The examples go on and on. These were honorable and distinguished men with disagreements.

LOL.
Well, don't be shocked if it's Trump's predecessor. It's a comin'.....

The Marxists demonize our former Presidents, ans their heroes are Chairman Mao, Castro, Che', Karl Marx, Stalin, Lenin, and the list goes on. These Commies have a body count altogether as big as the World Wars.

Yes, many of the Confederate monuments were built by the North.

Someone should open a chain of Bars named "Stars" in the the riot cities. They should cater to liberals with fruity fufu drinks and take their money...

They will probably never figure out they are supporting Stars'n'Bars......

Notice that every outspoken critic of America, especially Blacks, want America to change to help them...

None are saying, give us a one way ticket to the continent of Africa and we’ll build our utopia.

I guarantee that in 20 years, what ever changes they get won’t show a lick of social improvement for the majority of them.

Well, if you keep your wallet in your back pocket, she could be kissing your azz every time you put your wallet in your pocket. So, all wouldn't be lost.

You gotta look at the positive side of things.

Chicago will put up a 20 foot statue of their dyke mayor

Who said:

"Ask not what your Country can do for you, but what can you do for your Country"?

Which someone else paraphrased to:

"There is no "I" in Team".

Well cobbling a few things together as any self reliant American worth his salt would:
There is no "only our lives are worth protesting for" in Patriotism.
So are the protesters for America or against America?

Fifty-five years of the Great Society domestic programs and over 23 trillion dollars spent by taxpayers so far on it all, say you are very likely correct.

What makes anyone think Africa wants them?

There is an old saying.......ignorance is bliss. However in your case it is obvious.

7 person city council.

2 are white. Any guesses who the other 5 are?

Right on Wabi.

Africa got enough corrupt politicians..
Neither the leadership or the masses want more rabble rousers..
After all the won't have free phones or housing over there...

That's a fact, they just put up a wonderful statue of Lenin in what used to be West Germany. The sociopathic Communist leader Che Guevara is very popular among the youth today.
