  3. Jeremy They are not, you idiot. You don't even know what alt-right means.

  4. Local governments should decide on monuments. If they're on public property then the voters and taxpayers should decide conservation issues. Assholes marching from out of town when they don't pay taxes and don't have local voting rights are simply moronic agitators. The Federal Government should have no say about monuments on Federal public land until Congress passes new and specific legislation for each decision. No Administrative law, no bureaucrats, should have any influence at all. Teachers in our public-funded schools that agitate should be fired.

  5. Take it to your own legislators and butt out if you don't pay taxes where these monuments are preserved. Is that hard to understand?

  6. "The Civil War was fought over state's rights. State's rights to OWN SLAVES." Still not precise enough. States did not own slaves. Slavery is deprivation of rights, as a bundle. States did not want to be forced by the Federal government to acknowledge slaves' natural rights. There's an extent to which that they are right. SCOTUS should have dealt with it long before. As a common law republic it would be perfect sense to award jus soli citizenship (or at least standing to demand Bill or Rights protections) to any petitioner born in the Americas and resolve it case by case, those case precedents then become law of the land. The development of labor law was already occurring and slavery would have been parsed out of existence. The way that it was handled is what led to war. How can you suddenly take an institution like that and obliterate it from one day to the next without causing some kind of strife, even for the victims? Look at what happened from recklessly liberating prisoners of war during WWII. We should have done it, obviously, but how much better to go in with an ordered plan, prepared to help deal with the chaos? The lesson remained unlearned during the partition of India and so forth. It's not that those things were bad in terms of end goals but by being naive about the means a lot of people were killed.
