Pretty much as ISIS is destroying antiquities in the Middle East. And to hear them all explain their reasons, it will sound reasonable to pliable ears; "skulls full of mush" if I may quote Rush Limbaugh.
Now, on to this line of reasoning in a more civilized culture: ours:
ABC News"The president of the Atlanta NAACP says the group wants Confederate symbols — including a giant carving at Stone Mountain Park — removed from all government-owned property and plans to pursue making those changes during the next legislative session.
Why Does the Left Treat Islamic Terrorism with More Nuance Than the Confederate Flag? . . . "Claude Berube, director of the Naval Academy Museum, recently compared the rush to dig up Confederate graves and tear down statues in the U.S. to Islamic iconoclasm. The Taliban blew up the Bamiyan Buddhas on the grounds that they violate Islamic law. The terrorist group Islamic State is ransacking historic monuments for both God and mammon." . . .

"Dylann Storm Roof, a white man who was photographed with the flag several times, is charged in the shooting deaths and authorities are investigating the killings as a hate crime.
Stone Mountain — roughly 15 miles east of downtown Atlanta — features a large carving of Jefferson Davis, who was president of the Confederacy, and generals Robert E. Lee and Thomas "Stonewall" Jackson. The Ku Klux Klan also once held notorious cross-burnings and organizational meetings there." . . .Why Does the Left Treat Islamic Terrorism with More Nuance Than the Confederate Flag? . . .

Is the display of the ISIS flag considered a "hate crime"?
Atlanta NAACP Advocates Destroying Stone Mountain Confederate Monument
. . . "At the heart of these actions is the insistence that offensive memories of history will be erased and a pure ideological creed established. Civilization will be purified from the sins of the past, and a new day will dawn. The destruction is all futile, of course, as human nature and human history will remain unchanged. History will go on much as it always has -- a mixture of the good, the bad and the ugly, be it South or North.
"But if you think those who wish to destroy history will stop with destroying monuments and statues; that their lust for purification will be assuaged once the Stone Mountain monument is blown up, you would be terribly wrong." . . .

NAACP Makes Stunning Demand: Take Those Faces Off That Mountain
I agree with the members of the Atlanta NAACP Chapter. All our historic confederacy related monuments should be destroyed.....
...and replaced with the names or likeness of today's Americans who are victims of horrific CHILD ABUSE, NEGLECT, and MALTREATMENT at the hands immature moms and or dads who selfishly and irresponsibly introduce newborns, infants, toddlers, children and teens to a life of pain and hardship.
