Letter: Gov. Boggs at Temple Square?

I was puzzled to learn that we have U.S. Army bases named for — and memorial statues displayed in Washington, D.C, in honor of — Civil War generals who fought on the side of the Confederacy.My question is, "Why honor people who committed treason against the U.S.A. in order to keep slaves?"I hear our president (who says he doesn't like losers) threaten prison sentences for people who want the names changed and the statues removed because they are reminders of a time in our history tha
