Stonewall Jackson is a native son. He's part of our state's history. Leave the school's name as is.

He was a great general & born in these mountains. The Civil War is a part of our American history. Keep the name! Both sides have notable people deserving honor. You want to be upset? Get angry over our national debt, get angry over how our veterans are treated, get angry over beheadings, get angry over executive power abuse, get angry over the millions that have died since Roe vs Wade. Wake up America....the America of the colonists that won the Revolutionary War, that fought off the greatest power on earth with God's help, created AMERICA!

Quit catering to the people that Contribute NOTHING to society, and is more of the state's burden.

Do not change the name.. changing the name does not change the past. We must learn to embrace the past and learn from it.

By Federal act of Congress (May 23, 1958) all Confederate veterans are recognized as Unites States Military Veterans, and deserve all the rights and honors pertinent to such service. Public Law 85-425: “Sec. 410. The Administrator shall pay to each person who served in the military or naval forces of the Confederate States of America during the Civil War a monthly pension in the same amounts and subject to the same conditions as would have been applicable to such person under the laws in effect on December 31, 1957, as if his service in such forces had been service in the military or naval forces of the United States.” Approved May 23, 1958 – SOURCE: US Statutes at Large Volume 72, Part 1, Page 133-134. ” Every soldier’s grave made during our unfortunate civil war [sic] is a tribute to American valor… And the time has now come… when in the spirit of fraternity we should share in the care of the graves of the Confederate soldiers… and if it needed further justification it is found in the gallant loyalty to the Union and the flag so conspicuously shown in the year just passed by the sons and grandsons of those heroic dead.” …President William McKinley, 14 December 1898

With so many issues on Charleston, please don't make the mistake of entertaining this silly request. besides, even if it is officially changed, everyone will ALWAYS refer to it as stonewall.
