About That Confrontation in Graham, N.C.,Fort Milton M. Holland and Confederadication.

JULY 11, 2020


**  Demonstrators gather near North Carolina Confederate statue.  (Graham, N.C.)  (I like how the article referred to the BLMers as anti-racists.  The people they are protesting against were Whites.  That's kind of racist in my book.  The Graham mayor called for a state of emergency as there were about 60 anti-protesters with Confederate flags versus the 700 or so BLMers and their white minions.  You did not know when the BLMers would get violent, start looting or tear down the statue.)

The BLM speaker read a long list of wrongs done to his people and as being stolen from Africa.  They weren't stolen so much as bought from people in Africa.  People in that part of Africa tend to be Blacks.  So, who did the Northerners and Europeans buy the slaves from?

**  Fort Milton M. Holland has a patriotic ring to it.  (About renaming Fort Hood in Texas.  Mr. Holland was awarded a Medal of Honor and would be a good choice when Fort Hood is renamed (I am presuming all those Confederate forts will be renamed in today's climate) as he is deserving and a native of Texas.  But, so was John Bell Hood.

But, I would be against it being done right away because he was a black man.  These wounds being inflicted are too deep right now.  Name the fort after a Union general and then, say ten years down the line, change it.  But, I doubt that will happen.  Everyone of these forts will be named after Blacks and right away.

**  Cannon Fire on the Bayou:  Civil War battles fought in Southwest Louisiana.  Wow!!  Real Civil War history.  Back when I first started getting alerts for Confederate back in 2007, almost every alert was completely made up of news like this.  I sure look forward to the day that we return to normalcy and not all this effort to Confederadicate history as is going on now.

Confederadication=  Confedereate + Eradication.  --Old Secesh
