WE DON'T NEED STATUES OF TRAITORS

Germany and Italy don't honor their ignominious pasts by erecting statues to Hitler and Mussolini. And they weren't even traitors.

The Neo-Confederates with the support of the KKK erected the majority of their monuments decades after these racists had lost the Civil War.

While these Southern rednecks treated the African-Americans a little better than Hitler treated the Jews, they had no qualms about lynching thousands of their fellow Americans.

We don't need statues of traitors to teach us history lessons about our inglorious past.
