F6:"that flag, those statues/monuments, are not your great-grandfathers -- if somebody were to deface or vandalize their own gravesites, then you'd have a beef that someone was actually dishonoring them"
IMO, they are, they are not picking just one man that served the Confederacy but all of them. IMO, it as the same as when I was in, if you dishonored one Vet you dishonored us all.
"didn't your great-grandfathers have anything to commend them other than the fact that they fought for the Confederacy?"
O yes they all did a lot of things but there service to the Confederacy was a big part of things they did after the war. In most cases the statue that were place in there honor were for things they did after the war. But people only see the Flag nothing else. IMO, that is not right.
