To the best of my knowledge, Lee is the only man to ever graduate from West Point without a single demerit. Yet they took him out as a bad example? Go figure.

Reconcilliation, though difficult, did occur after 1865 due to the Leadership of Confederate Generals to avoid Guerrilla Warfare by Surrendering their remaining armies. The Leadership of the Union Generals in accepting these surrenders without malace and reprisals was due in large measure to their common bonds as West Point Cadets.

Do We have these Common Bonds today ??? Will it take another CW 2.0 ?

Where do the Current Political Earthquake Fault Lines Lay on the Land ?

Good even if he fought for slavery, or for what would of continued it's evil Lee is a hero of mine even though I don't and not from the South. Liberty and being left alone is more important than peace and safety like were doing now. Which is doing the opposite of what it's supposed to do, or by design??? Scripture makes it clear that when they shall say peace and safety sudden destruction comes. All our rights from the first to the 10th are being violated due to an agenda, and all this touchy feely crap.

Our second amendment is supposed to be absolute not able to control nor regulate. A well regulated Militia part of it doesn't mean Law it means a well oiled, well drilled well armed militia. Even as lots idolized Scalia he was wrong it is supposed to be unfettered. Sorry but felons are supposed to be able to own guns. That law only became law in the 30's and wasn't needed since prohibition was already re-pealed. Then notice once they got it on the books look how much more now they got. Forms 4473's to start then background checks to you have to 21 for a pistol to numerous things now can keep you from owning one. Then they get you to support it by calling it a felon in possession to make you say ok well that's ok shit Fuck that.. I support Gun owners of America they don't compromise the NRA does. I'd like to own a Tommy gun or fully automatic. Just for kicks without a NFA thing. We should be able to open carry or conceal carry with no permit no register no nothing. But yeah taking our history from us is like they did in Egypt erase the last king or something. LEE was a brilliant commander regardless and needs to be in history and known...
