This is all Im going to say on this because some of these comments are really upsetting.....Im a long standing member of the UDC, I say the people that say "we" need to get over it dont really understand a thing.
Im not going into a long drawn out thing....it wouldnt change anyones mind anyway, but just keep this in mind....the majority of the people that fought in that war for the south, the people that the UDC honor, were just about as poor as you could get, they did not own slaves..they were too expensive. The fought out of a sense of honor that all southern men were instilled with, they fought because their government told them to. Some people these days dont really understand that kind of "honor"
140 years from now will some college somewhere want to rename something named to do with either Iraqi war because its not "pc" to the middle east races attending that school? Will your great great great great great grandchildren be telling someone else to "get over it"
