[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I personally support keeping them, not because I stand for what they supported, but it’s an influential piece of history that is many ways unique to Virginia and a reminder of how far we’ve came. [/quote] +1. Like it or not, it is part of our history. The bad has to be recognized as well as the good.[/quote] You recognize the bad by teaching it in history, writing books that offer the context and comparison to others, etc. You don't "recognize" the bad by building statutes and naming buildings in people's honor. Honestly, how stupid are some of the people in this thread? The concept is really easy, but you don't seem to be able to grasp it in the slightest. And just to go full Godwin's Law, we don't need to have a "Hitler Boulevard" or statutes of him to recognize that he was bad. Again, see how stupid that idea is?[/quote]
