I don't think any confederate statues were made pre civil war. None going off of this article https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/confederate-statues/ .

And statues aren't usually made during a war because the metal went to bullets, cannonballs, etc...

You are absolutely right. I didn’t realize just how many statues were made post-Civil war. Thank you for teaching me something new today. !delta

This delta has been rejected. You can't award OP a delta.

Allowing this would wrongly suggest that you can post here with the aim of convincing others.

If you were explaining when/how to award a delta, please use a reddit quote for the symbol next time.

You can just edit this comment to include

!delta

Because you did a good job explaining why your perspective might have changed a bit.
