The Quark In The Road
Tear down the Confederate monuments. ASAP
today at 1:02 pm
The Confederate leaders were traitors and knaves
Whose statues were built when most were in their graves.
We shouldn’t revere them
Their statues? Cashier them!
No honor for those who would not free their slaves.

I’m Jerry Partacz, happily married to my wife Julie for over 40 years. I have four children and eleven grandchildren. I’m enjoying retirement after 38 years of teaching. I now have an opportunity to share my thoughts on many things. I’m an incurable optimist. I also love to solve crossword puzzles and to write light verse. I love to read, to garden, to play the piano, to collect stamps and coins, and to watch “Curb Your Enthusiasm”.
