You would definitely be the most popular farm in the country if you could.
I love the smell of burning spruce---I love the sound of a spring time goose---I love the feel of 40 below---from my trapline I will never go!

Only way to preserve our history is to vote the jerks out that would try to hide our history. There is a reason there is the right, it’s because they ARE!

My ancestors fought for the Union during the Civil War. One was killed at Cold Harbor. Another was twice wounded. Despite my feelings about that war, it is part of the south's history, like it or not, and removing these statues is shameful, just to appease BLM. Nazism is part of Germany's history. Surely you don't think that all the Nazi symbolism erected in the 40s should still be standing, right? Surely you wouldn't say it's a shame that all the Nazi symbolism is gone, why is this any different? I agree that the civil war and Lee are a part of our history and shouldn't.ve forgotten. Same with Nazism in Germany.....it's a part of their history and shouldn't be forgotten. But, in both cases, statues to honor the heros of either movement seem more than a little bit inappropriate. I knew this was coming. It's not about you.

Let me ask all you loosebowel types a question.
What specifically do you find so objectionable about American historical slave practice that you are willing to castigate and shame a broad section of your compatriots today, compatriots they had no part in the actions you decry, yet not one word towards the existence of slavery today much less any actual action in opposition.
The energy of the self-righteous tendencies just escalated with social media. It's always been easier to see the flaws in others rather than look in the mirror. The revisionists can feel good about themselves when they post a blog, or pic, or screen shot with, "Look at me standing against _______ in the name of _________ " < insert the word "me" at the end. Wish they'd just go home and take a good look; In the mirror. Under the rug. In their own fridge. And focus on fixing that 1st. But they won't. They'll just find another "something else." Blessings, Mark

I am of the opinion that the ruckus over the civil war era, whether names, or statues, or anything else is a smokescreen. Like all the progressivism bent on destroying this civil society does. Draw you over here, as they work over there. First of all, these no-nothings doing the tear it downs, are idiots. They couldn't spell Robert E. Lee or Thomas Jefferson. The civil war was the most devastating time in our nations history. Brother against brother. And more. Horror in our land. Regardless of what side. Those days are now 160 years in the past. If you hate this land and the people in it, what would you do. Same as people ALL do. Open old wounds. That's what these Soros idiots are being told to do. Open America's deepest wounds and make her people HATE each other again. I like northerners and I Southerners. And I like white and dark and brown and yellow. I admit I'm not warm on these hater idiots but my carnal side is not made righteous in this life.... Resist the division the pawns try to evoke. Blessings! Mark

Russia has done everything but buy fur from us. Like I said, backwards. Those Slavs have to be just about freezing by now.

Again I ask, what makes American slave practice particularly heinous?
American slavery was particularly heinous to me because I'm an American. Slavery in other countries is a problem for the people that live in those other countries to confront.
