My discussion had to do with the removal of historic reminders in the guise of racism. I think that some folks have way too much time and not enough controversial events to focus on so they dig up stupid ideas to divide the population into groups. I doubt that anyone on here is a true racist and definitely not a supremacist. But, I have been fooled before. I was once fooled into thinking that folks on here could have an intelligent conversation without some sensitive individuals calling them names. But, rather than being fooled perhaps I am just mistaken?
Nah, calling people "White Supremacists" is just an attempt to shut them up...

Another member called me the same.. Funny, as a Jew, the "White Supremacists" would never have me as a member... Go figure...

Curing the Civil War, my family was running for their lives, from the Pogroms...
