Confederate "heroes" committed treason. Had the CSA won then they should have statues.

Now that we as a nation are finally coming to grips with the damage that the continuation of the Civil War has caused, it is time to end it.

There should be as many statues to confederate heroes as there are to Benedict Arnold.
