    There’s an old saying that the Civil War was “a rich man’s war, but a poor man’s fight”.

    The National Parks Service put this together, and I think it really shows the people who died were fighting for a variety of reasons. It doesn’t mean we should glorify the Confederacy, but the people in that cemetery deserve their peace.

    Rush Limbaugh’s grave, on the other hand, will always be a gender-neutral bathroom.
