Now IndyCar? Keep the Obscenities. Arizona, Democrats and a Strange Preservationist
JUNE 13, 2020
** 'A slap in the face': Black veterans on bases named for Confederates. (From the N.Y. Times a paper notorious for its anti-Confederate venom. I am wondering why we're just hearing about the feelings of black veterans now?)
** GOP-led panel moves to remove Confederate names on military assets amid Trump's opposition.
** IndyCar flagman fired for criticizing NASCAR for banning Confederate flag.
(You can't even be against them in private? What is this country coming to? I have attended the Indy 500 since 2012 and just yesterday told the folks I go with I wouldn't be going to this year's because of the virus. I hadn't seen this until this morning, like I said, I am WAY behind, but this news also would have probably caused me not to go. Sadly, it was just one NASCAR racer, a black man, who wanted the flag gone and then it was gone. The power of one black person these days.)
** Tear the Confederate memorials down. Keep the graffiti. (Well at least they spelled the swear word F____ correctly. Would you really want to leave that up? Lots of hate crimes on those statues and pedestals.)
** Ducey calls for 'public process' to decide fate of Confederate monument at state Capitol. (Arizona. Don't worry, just wait until the next BLM "protest." It'll come down then. I didn't even know Arizona had a Confederate monument.)
** Biden supports removing Confederate names from US military assets. (A Democrat saying that? Unbelievable!!)
** After years of debate, Confederate symbols disappear quickly. (And very illegally, but what does that matter anymore.)
** A preservationists call for a future without Confederate monuments. (That kind of goes against preservation, doesn't it.)
** Pelosi: Confederate symbols 'have to go' from Capitol, bases. (Again, a Democrat saying that? Who'd have believed that would happen.)
** Booker, Lee re-introduce the Bicameral Bill to remove Confederate statues from the Capitol. (Both Democrats. I just can't believe that.)
