Joint Chiefs Chair Gen. Mark Milley: Treasonous Confederates

A point I have made many times on this blog.   In fact, just again this week. 

I have made my views most clear on the need to remove Confederate statues, as the attempt to destroy a government and undo the Union was treasonous, and must not be honored in any way.  The revulsion of slavery is most clear, but the fact an effort was made to cause the destruction to the republic must never be found acceptable, either. 

And the words from the Joint Chiefs Chair.

In remarks on bases named after Confederate generals, Joint Chiefs Chair Gen. Mark Milley says, "The Confederacy, the American Civil War…was an act of treason at the time against the Union, against the Stars and Stripes, against the U.S. Constitution." https://t.co/al2Fr3nZ8n pic.twitter.com/pjGCWiUo6c
