In reply to the discussion: The idea that there are still parks and places named after Civil War Generals from the South [View all]apocalypsehow
(12,751 posts)obfuscation in this sub-thread. That is why you continue this ridiculous chase down this absurd rabbit hole of a notion that because someone has an opinion about something and expresses it on a Discussion Board, they must, perforce, run right out and jump on some activist bandwagon regarding it.
Now, you have answered the question - you don't care whether parks and other public places are named after traitors who fought to keep African Americans in chains - and continuing to pursue this silly line of reasoning, one unrelated to either the OP or the issue at hand or the question put to you, is simply an exercise in trying to deflect from the truly appalling answer to that very question put to you.
But you go right on pursuing such lines of reasoning as "I don't care" regarding the matter of parks and other public places that are named after the treasonous men who plunged the United States into the bloodiest war in its history in order to keep African Americans in chains. Such posting behavior almost always catches up to folks on DU after a time, and a PPR follows.
All the rest of this diversionary jazz about "taking action" on an obscure law that only came to my attention during the course of this sub-thread is simply that: diversionary jazz, meant to deflect attention away from the very real ugliness of the expressed view - your expressed view - that it is a matter of moral indifference whether parks and other public places are named after the traitors who brought us four bloody years of Civil War in order to perpetuate the hideous institution of slavery.
