I grew up in the north, but I live in the south. I prefer it down here for many reasons, but the weather and fact that it doesn't snow are 1A and 1B. Growing up in the north many people have a delusion that the south is racist and is still fighting the civil war. It's nonsense of course, and it shows how arrogant and elitist the north is. I'm convinced that Confederate statues would be ignored if it wasn't for them being the latest test to show how progressive and politically correct you are.
The civil war is over, and the only ones who keep fighting it are those who try to tell the world how racist everyone is down south while ignoring the own racism in their backyards. Removing Confederate Statues will do absolutely nothing the day after the statue is removed, but it'll make those who remove it feel really good about themselves.
