Well....except that haircut.  :lol:  

I've watched his Civil War documentary and I have to say its deep in historical accuracy and shallow on criticism of the Confederacy.

My son and I were visiting my parents recently and Jason was flipping thru a large hardcover book about the Roosevelt family, authored by Burns.my dad says “ check out the cover page”. Signed by Ken with a personal message. Of course my father knows him. My father knows everyone lol smh.

The point of documentaries is to present relevant facts from all points of view. Just thought I’d bring that to your attention in your rush to judgement of burns.

No rush to judgement just made an honest assessment of the documentary.   :bc:

As I've stated before I have no problem removal of these monuments thru the vote of a people of that city, county or state.   Mob rule tearing them down is where I have an issue.

So if a bunch of mooslims show up and take over a city, it's cool if they tear down monuments that they don't give a shit about, because it's not their history...

That's called liberalism/globalism.

Well if its done thru the vote of the people or legal process then yes.   I'm not too worried about your scenario.  :lol:

Anyone who believes the history we are taught is a retard. The civil war is a prime example. First and foremost the north stated the war at fort sumpter. Second the War wasn’t fought over slavery it was fought over the southern states wanting to leave the union. To the victor go the spoils the north can write whatever they want but it’s very clear when you go down south but they know the truth

 

oh and I couldn’t care less what any of you believe

Everyone knows that America is built a hill of death and fucked up lies. So what’s your point?
