Wanna see teahick heads explode??

For fun, sometimes I will go on local newspaper Facebook pages when they have a post about a city or town talking about removing a Confederate statue. The usual knuckle draggers come out of the woodwork and accuse everyone of trying to “erase history” and some old white man or woman will inevitably post a comment about blacks owning slaves and that it was the Republicans who ended slavery.

My favorite comments to stir the pot: I ask them why they are dishonoring their Republican forefathers by glorifying the people that Republicans fought against, or I remind them that the people memorialized in the statues were probably Democrats, and I ask them why they are defending statues of Democrats.

You should see how they sputter and get all pissy when I say those things. It’s glorious!!
