A very vocal and liberal friend of mine, who happens to be a staunch Bernie supporter and worked for the local Democrat party as a volunteer, wanted to drag me into a conversation about the Confederate statues.
She prefaced it by saying, “You’re a Republican and a conservative, which is almost alt-right. Do you think we should keep those racists monuments to slavery?”
My response:
“I’m all for the Democrats trying to rewrite their history, especially if it means tearing down the monuments they built.”
She was silent for a whole ten seconds before she uttered.. “Uhhh..” and walked away.
Robert Byrd could not be reached for comment.
Thankfully.

I can’t wait for them to strap a rope to Franklin Roosevelt’s monument and make his brass wheelchair wheels roll. That’s how I would answer them by asking the snowflakes if they’re willing to join you and tear down the FDR Memorial.

I really think we should leave them up as a reminder of how racist and treasonous the democrat Party has been.
