James Woods Draws Fire for Comparing Iwo Jima Statue to Confederate Monument

Conservative actor James Woods is monumentally unhappy that Confederate statues are being taken down.

The movement to destroy these monuments has gained attention following the violent clashes in Charlottesville, Virginia, where white supremacists rallied against the planned displacement of a Gen. Robert E. Lee statue.

The “Ghosts of Mississippi” actor took to Twitter on Monday to insult ”#liberals,” using the Marine Corps War Memorial to make his point.
