Hitler based Concentration camps & what he called "the Final Solution" on what Andrew Jackson did to Native People.

Hitler studied Andrew Jackson - The Indian Removal act - and reservations. Specifically to help shape Genocide.

(Cont.)
Hitler wrote about it in his Biography.

He was Very Impressed with the Brutal treatment of Native People AND Slavery.

Andrew Jackson was Pro-Slavery.

This is NOT a Person to be Honored.
Yet, as I said before:

If one is being Honored, they are being Honored for what they have done.

What this tells us is, Andrew Jackson is Being Honored for all of these atrocities and beliefs.
It's not that PPL Honoring him Don't Know what he Did, Believed, & Stood for, It's that they Believe he Deserves this Honor BECAUSE of it.
I had someone Tweet me to say:

"I know that Andrew Jackson was responsible for the Trail of Tears, But think about the GOOD stuff he Did."
He Doesn't Deserve to be Honored IMO Because I am Disgusted by what he Did.

If one Chooses to Honor him knowing what he did, there is a Reason they are doing so.
I Choose to do what I usually do when he is being Honored, Or Celebrated...

...I Honor the Lives of the People he Cared Nothing for.
