CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. (AP) — A statue of Confederate Gen. Robert E. Lee was hoisted away from its place of prominence in Charlottesville on Saturday and carted off to storage, years after its threatened removal became a rallying point for white supremacists and inspired their violent 2017 rally that left a woman dead and dozens injured.

      But, but, but… how will we *ever* learn about the Civil War, now? I mean, if we’re not going to treat that slave-owning, seditious, treasonous, murderous dog like a hero, how will we ever understand our history, or something.

      Fun fact: I think most Americans are unaware that Arlington National Cemetery is on the grounds of the former Arlington Plantation, which was owned by Robert E. Lee, (it came to him through his wife), and the Quartermaster of the U.S. Army, Brig. Gen. Meigs, took it over as a cemetery as an act of revenge against Lee, whom Meigs held as responsible for the death of Meigs’s own son during the war.

        Let’s be honest, if the people that protest the removal of these statues really cared about learning history they wouldn’t keep trying to change the reason the Civil War was fought in the first place.
