So much can be learned from the statues of the Confederacy. Although they are associated with racism and slavery, we can use the statues to teach future generations about the wrongdoings of some of our former Americans, in order to prevent future occurrences.

A Confederate monument erected in a cemetery is very common, as families sought to honor their loved ones who fought in the war.

With all of the talk about removing Confederate monuments, are monuments of former Presidents (who happened to own slaves during a time that it was common), going to be removed? #DangerousPrecedent

For all the talk about how Confederate monuments display “hate”, how is the destruction of property not discussed as hate?

If the removal of the Confederate statues were so important to liberal policy makers in Washington, then why didn’t @TeamPelosi and @chuckschumer do something about them when they had the majority? This is all clearly politically motivated, and is risking the history of the US!!!

The Federal Government MUST NOT remove the Confederate statues, or any historical monuments, whatsoever! They display, history and heritage of the South!

[Save Confederate Monuments @SaveOurStatues]

Thank you to law enforcement for not allowing people to destroy the history of the United States. We must learn from our past sins through studying history!

Just like Confederate soldiers must be remembered, the Union soldiers must be as well. We must keep the HISTORY of our great nation intact! https://t.co/zbPV5R0NjB

What a wonderful story. https://t.co/ENJBYn3378

To honor the loved ones and support the heritage of families, the Confederate statues must be preserved.

This was in the North as well. The American people have spoken regarding this issue and would rather leave the statues in place and have the opportunity to discuss the vile history of racism in the Confederacy with future generations. https://t.co/S5yK3hRj7E

@SaveOurStatues But even those who didn’t own slaves benefited from the institution because no matter how poor they were, they were still white. They were able to walk down the road in the middle of the day without being asked where their papers were. They could leave a job if they wanted to

Unfortunately, even something as simple as street signs are looking to be taken down. https://t.co/4PoGsg18Fu

Atlanta's Confederate Avenue evokes Old South, but may get new name https://t.co/oW01vT0o3t #ushistory #CivilWar #ConfederateMonuments #Confederacy

@Sneeze_Boy The average white southerner did not own slaves because they could not afford it. It was the rich people who owned plantations that were slave holders. Around 20-25% owned slaves.

[Save Confederate Monuments @SaveOurStatues]

@Sneeze_Boy The INITIAL erection of Confederate monuments were put up by families to memorialize their loved ones who fought and died in the war.

President Trump makes some common sense points regarding this debate.
