When Confederate Monuments Are All Gone What Will Be Next?

Liberal Democrats are concentrating on imagined hate and symbolism but once they have torn down the statues of Confederate soldiers, including the idiocy of punishing living persons for having the same name as a Confederate soldier, or for condemning a horse because it has the same name as a Confederate soldier’s horse, what’s next?

With liberals, there is always a next move. They are never satisfied and their demands never end, especially when their former demands have been met by people too innocent and naïve to push back against the liberal onslaught and insistence for change and progressive government control over our lives. Liberals have taken the sensible prohibition of smoking cigarettes on long airline flights and expanded it to the stupidity of banning smoking in our own homes. So, with this tendency to overreach, it seems logical that the next concentration of hate for leftists, after all of the statues and monuments are gone, is to attack the descendants of former confederate soldiers, whether the confederate was a general or just a farmer defending his home and family against the Union Army advances. Such an effort may well be called lynching by lineage.

One fears a new, modern-day Inquisition will be waged by liberals when they begin demonizing people with the same last name of southern heroes and soldiers. And don’t discount liberals going after descendants of Robert E. Lee and Stonewall Jackson: these descendants will be identified by their current-day names and condemned to be criminals for the acts of their forebears. But who does not share a first or last name with a Confederate soldier, even if there is no traceable family tie?

And what about the leftist lie that Christians are to blame for the wars the world has fought and for the suffering and slavery practiced in the past (the left is too consumed with hate and too busy blaming current America for all of the ills of the world to worry about actual slavery occurring in predominantly black Africa and the dark-skinned Arabic world, but to expose these areas where people still suffer under slavery would be a racist act in the minds of liberals, so they don’t even mention them, let alone try to put a stop to the continued practice of slavery) .

So, with people of religion in liberals’ sites, are Christians and Jews the future group to be attacked and have their monuments torn down because of liberal insanity and their assignment of blame to religion for the ills of the world? We’ve already seen the forced removal of the Ten Commandments inscription from an American courtroom and the destruction of a hilltop cross in California commemorating persons who died at war for America, so the movement has already begun.
