Are these UDC members the white supremacists who put up all those racist monuments BLM has warned us about? How about those Confederate veterans above them? Some mighty desperate and despicable folks if you ask me.

Protesters Target Confederate Statues in Recent Riots-- Part 2: Norfolk, Richmond, Nashville and Philadelphia


In Norfolk, Virginia, protesters climbed a Confederate monument and spray-painted  graffiti on its base.  Norfolk is one of the Virginia cities who have already let it be known that they will be removing the monument as soon as they are able to July 1.  (Sadly, another Southern city I will now have to boycott.)

In Richmond, Virginia, at least two of the Confederate statues on Monument Avenue, those of Confederate generals Robert E. Lee and Jeb Stuart were completely covered in graffiti.

Nearby, a fire burned at the headquarters of the United Daughters of the Confederacy.  The building was also covered with graffiti.

In Tennessee and Pennsylvania, statues of people who weren't Confederates but who had racist tendencies were also targeted.

The one in Nashville, Tennessee, of Edward Carmack was toppled.  Protesters (well, those committing hate crimes and getting away with it) sprayed graffiti on the statue of former Philadelphia Mayor Frank Rizzo after trying to topple it.

The death of George Floyd was a miscarriage of justice.  Not as bad, but still breaking the law, the attacks on the statues is also called breaking the law.  Why do they get away with it?
