** UNC's Unsung Founders Memorial desecrated by pro-Confederates. (Chapel Hill, N.C. Two guys with Confederate flags were by it and one had the audacity to sit down on it. And this was referred to as desecration. Of course, UNC was where the Silent Sam statue, honoring UNC students who died fighting for the Confederacy was pulled down during "demonstrations" against it. But, that wasn't desecration. But a guy sits on a monument honoring Blacks who helped build the campus and that was desecration.
I tell you, it is pretty hard to get a fair shake from the media these days. Hey, isn't it a law that media must term anyone standing up for their Confederate heritage to be Neo-Confederates linking them, of course, to Neo-Nazis?
Take a look at the pictures to the right and which would you call real desecration?
** Contextualizing the Confederacy in Georgia: is it possible?
** Statue of Florida's Mary McLeod Bethune heading to the nation's Capitol, replacing Confederate image. (Why do all Confederate statues HAVE to be replaced by black statues? Granted, Mary Bethune was a remarkable woman and deserves honor, but that is rubbing our noses in all of this Confederadication.)

Destruction of Silent Sam Statue At UNC-Chapel Hill Was Desecration. Sitting On A Memorial Is In Poor Taste, But Not Desecration. --Old Secesh
