Jackie Robinson statue stolen

Between the calls for people without a leftist agenda to be made 'gone and out of the way' in the main board version of this thread, (to be eliminated from the human population via mostly peaceful means, I'm sure!), at least one person apparently thinking the Civil Rights Act was passed to eliminate slavery, and the general apathy about actually waiting to see if this crime has any actual relevancy to either political agenda whatsoever, this is a real 'don't know whether to laugh or cry' saga. The intersection of astonishing ignorance about basic landmark moments of American history, wishes for the targeted elimination of half the population, and the complete disregard for the lack of any evidence whatsoever this was done by a group that can be weaponized for political debate by either side is... wow. An amazing read, 5/7.

Depends how many years per generation we are counting! I'd need to grab the genealogy to see exactly, we date back to 1649!

I meant between you and General Sherman. I am guessing that is who you are referring to as ending the Civil war.

Yes, I gather that. I'd have to check exactly. Well before my time

I don't have any famous relatives. I have told stories about my Grandpas brother Jay or my Uncle who was in the Marines.
