** Mitch McConnell's infamous Confederate flag photo resurfaces after he shuts down $2,000 payments. (It shows him standing in front of a huge Confederate flag, probably accepting a plaque from the Sons of Confederate Veterans (SCV). The article goes on to say the SCV is "a group whose motives have often been questioned. While it claims to be an organization for historical preservation, it has focused mainly on fighting for the right to display Confederate symbols publicly in recent decades.")
Remember, though, that the majority of those who want all vestiges of the Confederacy gone are largely those people who have been rioting, looting, burning and committing hate crimes (against Confederate monuments) in the streets of the United States. To my knowledge, not one single SCV group has done that.
And, remember that before 2011 and the sesquicentennial of the Civil War, Confederate statues and flags were all around and, other than from a few, accepted. These, of course in the days before the "Woke" idiocy. The tempo has sure picked up since the Charleston church and Floyd murders.
To me, anything with BLM on it is much more offensive than any Confederate symbol. It says, in effect, "I support rioting, burning, looting and hate crimes." I don't know about you, but I have a hard time supporting any group that does that.
So, who are the "Bad Guys" here?
