Ok, you're officially right, as in he did not pee on the actual Alamo... he peed on the Alamo Cenotaph Monument, which is the monument to honor those who fell in the battle. I'm not sure that's any better, and I can understand why the Texans were upset by it.

Well, it deserved to be pissed on, so it is a shame it was not the actual Alamo. Bunch of traitorous slavers.

That whole war was a setup to take land from Mexico. We do not need to remember it with fondness any better than Vietnam or Iraq.

It’s definitely not better, and, it’s right there in full view of every damn thing and person who would be at the Alamo. But it wasn’t the Alamo. Certainly an important detail that’s been…not remembered…over time.
