erasing the past?

There has been much disturbance recently regarding the destruction of statues--testimonials to US history.  As I see it, the past is a step ladder by which we ascend to our present society.

Remember the quote, “Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it." (George Santayana)

These memorials serve to remind families of their fallen-soldier ancestors who fought for what they believed in.  They can also be viewed as art.  Are African Americans complaining?  No, it is the liberal left who seem to be offended at anything and everything!

Delinquents are now attacking, defacing and/or destroying all sorts of other statues and memorials.  Where will it all end?  

In summary, let us gaze upon these artistic sculptures and remember where our country was, and how far we have come toward equal opportunity across all classes and races.

Progress, one step at a time, until one day all are free in our eternal heavenly home.
