Clearly not.
On no. CLEARLY I am. Like I said when you ran from it. National Military Park was established at Chickamauga and Chattanooga in 1890. At Chickamauga, veterans from both sides rallied together to create it.
You ran from the historical fact the the majority of the first monuments were constructed by Union veterans because the southern sates had no money.
Clearly you do not understand history and want it rewritten to pursue your socialist agendas on the universities of the nation.
Clearly you don't have a clue that a nation torn apart did some things to heal and not everything is racist. But that doesn't serve your purpose.
Union and Confederate veterans gathered in major cities to remember past battles and celebrate the role they played in the fighting. In Atlanta, Georgia, exposition organizers invited 300 Union veterans to attend a reunion of the blue and gray on Kennesaw Mountain in 1887. TheDaily Inter Ocean informed its readers on August 28, 1887, of the event, pointing out that the day would include barbecues, fireworks, and tributes to both Union and Confederate generals (August 28, 1887).
BUT CLEARLY you are not educated on things. Because it does not serve your purpose.
The Wisconsin State Register printed an article on September 24, 1887, that declared a blue and gray reunion in Evansville, Indiana, to be a huge success, with 10,000 Union and 3,000 Confederate veterans in attendance. Indiana's governor was present and expressed his feelings about the reunion's significance, stating that "the issues upon which that unfortunate struggle were based are buried" (September 24, 1887).
Because you are clearly educated on it........

Ah... the ole run from the PLATFORM post because you are not educated on platform vs publisher.
Here is the point that people like you WON'T listen to. Not that you can't listen, you won't. Wiping out history does nothing. It's not going to make the people that attacked my family, that kept my family out of schools like anybody. It's not going to make people not be racist. I have seen it on all sides.
Rewriting history is stupid/ignorant. What it ends up doing is making the atrocities throughout time invisible and thus eventually repeated.
Using our universities and sports to do that is training HATE. Like it or not. It in itself is systemic. You are allowing hate to be taught toward yet another group of people.

First, everything I stated was a fact. If you disagree with that, point it out.
Second, Where do you get off calling me a racist little one?
The idea that statues of people is some kind of healing thing is absolute bullshite. Who the frick is that supposed to be healing and/or helping? The slave owners?
Nor is it a reason they have monuments of leaders.
And from there you just went into stupid political crap. Apparently, you can't get anyone to listen to your stupid arse on any politics forum, so you come here with your stupid shite and post it on this forum.
Literally you are trying to recruit people to your cause.
And as for the racist stuff, I'm not surprised you don't have the balls to admit it. But it's very clear what your agenda is. And I think you fricking suck because people like you are the best ammo for the advancement of socialism and that other bullshite.
You're just as ignorant as those stupid liberals.

Thank you for the idea
Aggie is Redneck and we know that Rednecks are racist, so changing the name to The Fighting Faggies is more appropriate.
While we are at it, Dawgs and Razorbacks bit people, Gators eat peoples pets and Elephants have squashed more that a few Africans in their day.
Do even get me started on Black Bears and Commodores who sink vessels with people on them.

Actually that’s where Bayou Bengals comes from. They were trying to get away from the monicker, The Fighting Tigers. It didn’t really stick though.

OK! Bayou Bengals works for me.

Texas is completely left now. Texag7-50 is a well known liberal activist. Texas is essentially East California

It’s way different than having a mascot/name that is actually a direct reference to times of slavery/racism (ex. Ole Miss, Redskins)
You and PeeJay should move to Seattle. You two would fit right in. It's free after all.

Good God! We do have a live tiger mascot not a confederate flag
Posted on 6/12/20 at 7:14 pm to West Monroe
So that will erase history?
