The old man, Robert E. Lee of Arlington, Virginia, employed terrible tactics at Gettysburg, against the advice of his commanders. The open charge across that field into Cemetery Ridge destroyed the Southern Army, and with it, mankind's hope for a more just form of government, a confederation of states.what has not been said is Picket's charge was suppose to be supported by the CSA's 3000 cavalry attacking the rear but a snot nose general by the name of Custer was able to delay their attack with only 300
As for the statues, get used to the tearing down of statues of dead white men. The US government officially hates whitey. Originally Posted by DSK

You are one dense mofo.You should burn some books on a cop car in Meyerland, WTFacist?
I said I do not give a fuck.
If New Orleans wants to take it down, that is the City's right, just like if they wanted yo put ip a statue of David Duke.
Taint none of my business. I don't live there.
The federal government is not making them do so. Sounds like a local issue being handled locally!
You're sounding idiotic here, just like the old JD! Originally Posted by WTF

Except, just like New Orlean, they didn't put them up originally and so don't have the moral right to take them down. Go to the families of the originals and see what they say.JD, you ignorant SOB, i too think it stupid as fuck that they are taking down statues....but unlike you, I think it a local issue. If N.O. wants to waste local money taking down a statue , wtf do I care? Wtf do you care?

Both Brigadere General Armistad and Lt General Longstreet told Lee, "those are Handcocks Men, and Handcocks Men don't run".
They didn't. Originally Posted by Jackie S
