honestly if you refuse a man a place in history that did his duty with honor and fought for his country. everything was taken from Lee. you do know that Arlington cemetery is LEE's homestead right? you do know that Lee is the guy that got the troops stop fighting.
here ya go. Robert E Lee quotes
In this enlightened age, there are few I believe, but what will acknowledge, that slavery as an institution is a moral & political evil in any country. It is useless to expatiate on its disadvantages.
We should live, act, and say nothing to the injury of anyone. It is not only best as a matter of principle, but it is the path to peace and honor.
I have fought against the people of the North because I believed they were seeking to wrest from the South its dearest rights. But I have never cherished toward them bitter or vindictive feelings, and I have never seen the day when I did not pray for them.
A Union that can only be maintained by swords and bayonets has no charm for me. If the Union is dissolved and government disrupted, I shall return to my native state and share the miseries of my people, and save in defense will draw my sword on none.
and this which I'm very sure will fly over your head...
Obedience to lawful authority is the foundation of manly character.
and this is you:
