Just Say No….To Confederate Nostalgia

Abigail Spanberger strikes one for the good people of Virginia:
Gov. Abigail Spanberger signed Del. Dan Helmer’s bill to end the renewal of commemorative Robert E. Lee license plates in Virginia Wednesday, according to a press release.
A portion of the sale of these plates has previously supported the neo-Confederate organization known as the Sons of the Confederacy.
“The Confederacy was a four year period in which traitors hellbent on preserving slavery tried – and then failed – to divide the Union,” said Helmer in a statement. “The Confederacy and its leaders do not deserve our commemoration, and its adherents certainly do not deserve taxpayer dollars.”
Fuck the Confederacy and everyone who expresses nostalgia for it.
