[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At the time, Lee was a very well respected person in Virginia. Even after the war they didn't treat him like a traitor because they were trying to heal the country. Lee isn't responsible for every racist redneck in our country. I feel like the longer back in history the easier it is to wrap someone into controversy because of course today that doesn't fly.[/quote] it's one thing to not attribute redneckism to Lee; it's another to say that he was a hero. He lead an insurrection. That's called being a traitor. I get that they didn't want to treat him as such in order to heal the country, but he should not be seen as a hero. Only traitors would see him as a hero.[/quote]
