Re: US: Violent clashes Charlottesville

Robert E Lee was a southerner and took up arms to defend that it was an honourable thing for him to do at the time and between that and his achievements as a military leader earnt him the statues. But watch out because here comes the modern world and we better then ever before know whats right and what parts of history we should have and those bits we must erase. A country and it's people are the sum of their past and should learn from it and repeat the successes and learn from the mistakes that's true progression and builds an identity. One of the biggest problems in this world is the loss of identity and it's consequences so far have been anything but positive for us or those countries on the receiving end.

Instead of trying to rewrite or erase those inconvenient parts of history embrace them and learn from them so that everyone can be a little better.
