You know I was about to note that it's odd that unsuccessful rebellions are venerated to this level, but I guess France honors Vercingetorix and Italy honors Spartacus. I'm not entirely sure venerated is the right word. Plus many of the individuals honored were important persons in their own right before the revolution. Robert E. Lee came to prominence during the Mexican-American War, for instance. It's not like the entirety of any of their existences was the Civil War and, by removing monuments, you're forgetting the other shit they did. --- (\/)(\/)\|-\| In Zeus We Trust: All Others Pay Cash <cite>Zeus posted [p:879386987] in Removal of...
