It's a relief to know some people still have a backbone. It is so pathetic and weak to want to remove these statues and memorials. When did yellow bellied spinelessness become something to be admired? Custer was a demon from the lowest level of hell, but removing a statue of him because you don't want to feel bad feelings is just disgusting. Lee and Jackson were just historical figures and not vile fiends like Custer.

@SoiledKnickers Well, like the lady said, this is far from over. They will keep screaming until they lose their voices and then hopefully take a nice long nap.
