Removing Confederate generals statues
-
Saw this issue in another thread and there was a great point that the South were not traitors at all. They're merely wanted to secede. George Washington was actually a traitor but the winner writes the history.
And for you self-righteous liberals who are cheering on the destruction of US history because you believe the South were traitorous... The people you defend murdered how many civilians? Let's take a look...

So you hypocrites are actually defending war criminals. Nice work.

If you think the history only exists if statues, many of which that were put up decades later specifically as anti civil rights measures, remain up then you have a very simple brain.
If you think a group that went to war with our country deserves to be celebrated in this county and really they're just misunderstood then you're so far deep in toting the modern conservative line that this conversation isn't going to go anywhere.
Calling this a "destruction of US history" is a joke. Books, media, museums, etc all help preserve this history. It isn't done only by celebrating someone that went to war with our country.

The joke is you woodpecker. First of all like with so many things you didn't give shit number one until the Democrats started leading you around by your weenie. You didn't care about the Battle Flag on a TV show or a Lynyrd Skynyrd album and you didn't care about any of the Confederate memorials.
And yes it was Abe Lincoln's idea to heal the country. You pretend to revere Lincoln but I you know your ass from a hole in the ground about him either.
And while you blather about civil rights you let mass murder of civilians go on with a big thumbs up.

Did you ever stop and think why they made Auschwitz a memorial and museum?
There are reasons you don’t destroy history.

And if you believe that history isn't rewritten to fit the purposes of the different people who are telling the story you are truly out of your mind.

No they were traitors. That's why they had to be pardon for their treason.
Now, therefore, be it known that I, Andrew Johnson, President of the United States, by virtue of the power and authority in me vested by the Constitution, and in the name of the sovereign people of the United States, do hereby proclaim and declare unconditionally, and without reservation, to all and to every person who directly or indirectly participated in the late insurrection or rebellion, a full pardon and amnesty for the offence of treason against the United States, or of adhering to their enemies during the late civil war, with restoration of all rights, privileges, and immunities under the Constitution and the laws which have been made in pursuance thereof. -

Leave them up or take them down, I couldn’t care less. Claiming secession, achieved through war, isn’t treason, that’s another topic for another day.

The sentence you cited seems to be a misnomer. It only implies treason.
No one was ever tried for the offense of treason.
My understaning is that in order to be pardoned for a crime, one would of had to be first found guilty of it, no?
Whether Lee or Underwood realized it, there were also some serious constitutional and legal obstacles in the path of a conviction—or even a trial—for treason. For one thing, the Constitution’s definition of treason is really a very narrow one, and much would dangle on the exact meaning of “levying war.”
Abraham Lincoln had insisted from the beginning that since war is a condition that exists only between two sovereign nations, and since the Confederacy was in his view only an insurrection, no actual war legally existed between the North and the South.Cal owned you on this one.
Nothing ever changes.

The Second Amendment is a thing of the past. Unfortunately or not depending on your point of view.
But do take note at the North wanted to punish the South and that they didn't dare go to the Supreme Court and take the risk of acquittal. But again like I said if trees in the such a big deal to any of you guys how can you possibly follow George Washington?

I said IN RED. Yes, I missed "treason" in the entire document - but just because he SAYS "treason" doesn't mean it's true per the actual definition of treason. If I were president and granted you a pardon for being from a distant galaxy, does that mean you are from a distant galaxy? of course not.
It is NOT treason. It was a rebellion to LEAVE the union, not to overthrow the union. If the south were to have given help to the British during the revolutionary war, that would have been treason.
Were it treason, it would be treasonous to grant a full pardon to all those who committed it.

By the way he equating secession with treason didn't come about with the Supreme Court until 1869 four years of Civil War was over. To rub salt into the wound since butchering thousands upon thousands of innocent civilian, men women and children s wasn't good enough.
If treason ever meant anything to you liberal clowns in the first place. Which I doubt.

You gotta love when toting the party line loops so far back on itself that the "Real Americans" are lining up to defend and celebrate those that went to war with the US. Amazing.
The sane hypocrisy happens with spending, govt power, etc though so it's not a surprise...
