Is 'Toppling' a Confederate Statue a Crime? Two Worst Groups Clash Near Georgia's Stone Mountain.
AUGUST 16, 2020
** Barred from a Confederate shrine, protesters scuffle in Georgia. (Stone Mountain. The two groups were described as far-right activists and white-supremacists versus anti-racist and far-left counter-protesters. Far-Right, Far-Left both really bad. Both groups are equally bad and dangerous in my books.)
** "This is a movement': New group pushes for removal of Confederate statue from Gregg County Courthouse lawn. (Longview, Texas. Longview Metro Chamber, Longview NAACP, Longview Ministerial Alliance and Longview Black Lives Matter make up this group called This Is Us.
** Dozens of Confederate symbols have been removed since May. How many in North Carolina? (59 across U.S. according to SPLC, those magnificent list makers (who won't make up one listing all BLM demonstrations across the country since May). Of those, 40 were taken down by officials are protesters with no plans to bring them back to their original placement. Another five were relocated. If protesters take down "topple" a Confederate statue, is that a legal action? Is that a crime?
As of Friday, 154 Confederate symbols still stood in North Carolina.
