[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm on the left and I don't like the vandalism.  I would be fine if his statue came down through legal means.  I have long thought the holiday was misplaced and should be renamed.  [/quote]
Me too. [b]I'd like to remind people that "liberals" and "the left" aren't monoliths. While we have similar beliefs, we have different means to those ends. [/b]

I'm in favor of taking statues down and putting them in a museum or other educational facility. I am not pro-vandalism. [/quote]

Excellent!  Keep that in mind when the left labels all Trump supporters racists.  I might support some of what Trump is doing, but that doesn't automatically make me a racist jerk.  [/quote]
The first draft of my response actually began with "Just like you keep trying to remind us that all conservatives aren't alike..." but I thought that might be incendiary. But yes, know that that was my intention.

It's hard to remember that all people on "the other side" aren't the enemy. But in an era like this one, it seems--to us--that if you support one position, you must support them all. [/quote]
