Allow them celebrate their loss and keep their baubles and trinkets, for it is all they have left. Let them stand forever as monuments to the souths inferiority.
LOL Looks like I was right about some snowflakes getting triggered over this news.
1. They got beaten into submission by far superior numbers and resources. The South actually had better generals in general and their soldiers actually fought better as well. They were simply overwhelmed by far superior numbers, nothing else.
2. The war wasn't so much about North vs South as it was Democrats vs Republicans. The dems in both north and south supported slavery and very small percentage of those who lived in the south actually owned any slaves at all. Most of those who were fighting for the south didn't give a damn about slavery. They were mostly simple folk who understood only that they were being invaded and so they felt they had to defend their homes.
3. No, they aren't "participation trophies", you snowflake. They represent a part of our history. Fortunately, the judge in Virgina doesn't agree with your retarded view on the matter.
I don't really have any desire to get into a long drawn-out argument over how things were in the distant past. I only care about what's happening today and the fact is those statues represent our history. I'm glad the judge ruled the way he did.
