Unless a heap CSA monuments were torn down, then this graph is a deliberate attempt to deceive. Once built the monuments stay up.No correlation between lynching and monuments-

The blue line on the graph represents the number built during that year.Unless a heap CSA monuments were torn down, then this graph is a deliberate attempt to deceive. Once built the monuments stay up.
that was EXACTLY what he said. The two lines are nonesense together, the monuments stay, the lynched disappear.The blue line on the graph represents the number built during that year.
It's not a running total.
The SPLC and other radical groups have claimed that racial violence increases when monument construction increases.that was EXACTLY what he said. The two lines are nonesense together, the monuments stay, the lynched disappear.
nonsense the graph shows only a part of racial violence, it's either biased, lying or stupidThe SPLC and other radical groups have claimed that racial violence increases when monument construction increases.
The graph shows it to be a false claim.
All a sham. The cries for multiculturalsim & inclusiveness have a caveat attached. You have to vote for, or be a Democrat.So only the majority should get what they want, right?
Doesn't that work against multiculturalism and inclusiveness?
I have relatives that served in the civil war for the Confederacy and one died from his wounds and the other two went to a Union prison camp.All of them survived the war, thankfully.
They were not traitors, and did not fight for slavery. In addition, as I've noted elsewhere, there are higher loyalties than country. Home and family come first, and if it came down to defending my home and family from an invading US army, I would hope I'd have made the same choice my ancestors did.I have relatives that served in the civil war for the Confederacy and one died from his wounds and the other two went to a Union prison camp.
Why should I be honoring my traitorous relatives? Who fought for slavery and for the ending of our great republic. I see a disconnect here...
Why am I or you or any American want to honor traitors to our Republic? Should we put monuments up to the Americans who spied for the Russians and gave them our nuclear secrets? They all thought they were doing some greater good...
Why should yours and my traitorous relatives get monuments?
The graph is deceptive. End of story.The SPLC and other radical groups have claimed that racial violence increases when monument construction increases.

They fought against the United States, therefore they are traitors. So-called higher loyalties and just rhetoric. So you would be an outlaw, just as they were.They were not traitors, and did not fight for slavery. In addition, as I've noted elsewhere, there are higher loyalties than country.

OTOH a racist white supremacist violent society suggests a correlation between monuments and lynching.Correlation does not equal causation.
Hilarious Graphs Prove That Correlation Isn’t Causation
That is, unless we do have Nicholas Cage to blame for all those people drowning in swimming pools.www.fastcompany.com
George Washington was a traitor to his king and lawful government. I'd be in good company.They fought against the United States, therefore they are traitors. So-called higher loyalties and just rhetoric. So you would be an outlaw, just as they were.
As were thousands of others, to include plenty of my relatives, & I would assume, some of yours as well. George Washington is probably the most important American there ever was. We have many monuments, statues, cities, streets, buildings, schools, etc.. named after the man. Rightfully so, imo. Though, if anyone wants to break it down, he was a traitor, & slave owner. The most famous of them all. I feel privileged to have walked upon some of the same dirt he did. I'm honored that several of my ancestors fought under his command.George Washington was a traitor to his king and lawful government. I'd be in good company.
Pretty much tells you everything you need to know, does it not..? I wouldn't even have to ask you that question. I would assume, you wouldn't ask me the same. Not even a question, as far as I'm concerned."So-called" higher loyalties? You'd choose the United States over your wife, children or your home? Interesting.
big difference: he did winGeorge Washington is probably the most important American there ever was. We have many monuments, statues, cities, streets, buildings, schools, etc.. named after the man.
How? Connect the dots here. I could just easily suggest, with as much evidence as you've provided, that a "racist white supremacist violent society" suggests a correlation between toothbrushes and lynching. Spell it out for us. And did grave markers on Confederate graves push the same message as the monuments? Why or why not?OTOH a racist white supremacist violent society suggests a correlation between monuments and lynching.
it's statistics - it's not monuments comissioned (per year), it's monuments per squaremile (<- that number is growing year by year)How? Connect the dots here.

No one was ever lynched by a monument.OTOH a racist white supremacist violent society suggests a correlation between monuments and lynching.
That is one bizzare post . Southern whites invented race baiting by having slavery and fighting to preserve and expand it. The during Reconstruction they used massive violence to " put black people in their place." You might want to actually study Southern history.My ancestors who fought in that war owned no slaves and raped no one.
But this is what the whole anti-monument thing is about - pitting race against race. Stirring the pot.
Gotta keep blacks in the Demo camp - especially in an election year.
Some people can't rest unless they've put in some 'good ole' race-baitin' for the day.
'Good ole' race-baitin'!
Biden with a southern drawl: "They're gonna put y'all back in chains!"
Despicable.
