Silent Sam Back in the News and Virginia's Confederate Statue Removal Bill

February 14, 2020

**  What happens next to the Confederate monument Silent Sam?

**  Judge overturns UNC's agreement giving Silent Sam statue to pro-Confederate group.  (charloFrom that Confederate-hating Washington Post.  They must be rejoicing there on the editorial floor.)

**  State lawmakers approve Confederate statue removal bill:  So what happens next?  (I have not seen that the governor has signed it yet.)

**  How Ole Miss Athletics help push out Confederate traditions.  (Actually a very fair appraisal of the situation.)

**  Birmingham mayor fights to remove Confederate monuments.  (Remember, the mayor is a black man.  Who'd figure?)

**  In victory for students, court rescinds $2.5 million settlement over UNC's Confederate statue.  (And remember, they were the ones who committed the hate crime by illegally tearing Silent Sam down.  And, on top of it, no arrests have been made, none have been expelled from school.  Now, they want justice?)

**  Hearing continued for two charged with vandalizing Confederate statue.  (Charlottesville, Va--  Being arrested for such action had to come as a shock to them.  Why isn't the other side crying foul on this?)

**  Virginia Democrats at odds over terms of Confederate statue removals.  (Glad to see this removal is not just going to be a feeding frenzy, gloating thing, hopefully.)
