[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I put "Confederate" in quotes because I'm not sure how "Scarlet" and "Ranger" fall within the Confederate/Slavery umbrella. [url]https://wjla.com/news/local/fairfax-city-virginia-street-name-change-council-vote-mosby-woods-confederate-slavery-confederate-plantation-lee-ranger-stonewall[/url] Lots of quotes in the article from those wanting the change, but a conspicuous absence of voices from the other side. I'm not sure how I would feel about those names if they were my street, but I do know that changing a home address is a major league PITA.[/quote] You mean the pro-slavery traitors? Do you expect the article to present their viewpoint?[/quote] You are aware that 4 slave states fought for the union?[/quote] You mean the 4 slaves states that were pressured to stay in the Union.[/quote]
