Renaming Would Be a Travesty, Army Bases, Confederate Flags, Mobile, Removal and Monuments

JUNE 16, 2020

**  Head of SC Confederate group  says debate to rename American military bases a 'travesty.'  (Though, I can go with this renaming.  After all, these men FOUGHT against the United States as it were.  However, renaming is going to be expensive and those costs should be borne by those who want the names changed.  No public money should be involved.)

**  New push to rename Army bases named after Confederate generals.

**  Ohio House rejects amendment prohibiting Confederate flag at county fairs.  (Ohio Democrats proposed it.  Big surprise.  The Republican majority voted it down.)

**  Alabama AG:  Mobile illegally removed Semmes monument, pays fine.  (Well, if Birmingham had to pay a fine, so should Mobile.  Only, the Mobile removal of the Semmes statue was not done in a fit of hatred like in Birmingham.  It was done for public safety since police evidently are not allowed to stop BLMers and their white minions from attacking the statues.  I am now in favor of removing every Confederate monument on public land and putting them somewhere safe from the lawless "protesters."

**  Bacon:  US military installations honoring Confederates must be renamed.  (Republican Representative from Nebraska.)

**  Bring them down.

**  Bastrop County judge:  Removing Confederate monuments  would be "counterproductive.'
