Wyldnwoody44 Posted June 25, 2023 Report Share Posted June 25, 2023 We literally tore down a statue of a general that was crucial in the victory against the redcoats... Because he was a slave owner. So we don't exist as the USA if this man wasn't in his position. This can be dissected in many ways, but we have enough current issues that eating time and resources to chase ghosts seems silly. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The one day it wasn't, the smoke showed up in the evening. It's no joke this year. Best of luck up there with this all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
