Fucking what?
`What do you mean "Fucking what?"
If you value keeping statues of military figures who supported the cruelty of owning other human beings, the same people who valued beating slaves, and murdering them when they tried to escape, and value that being aloud to stay on public property, what do you want me to say to that? It would be the same to me as valuing a statue of an Imam who values the arrest and murder of gays. It would be the same as valuing a town putting up a Nazi flag.
You cannot water down what happened nor should you. The only proper context for the statues of those who fought to keep slavery is in a Museum of what not to do you your fellow human being. No, I will not apologize for holding that position.
