Of Flags, Fountains, Spray-Painting, Statues, Parades and Sad R.

SEPTEMBER 28, 2021

**  Confederate flag license plate spurs hostile workplace trial.  (Connecticut)

**  Group that donated Confederate  fountain in Helena wants it back.  (Montana.  Put there in 1916 and removed in 2017 (BGF)  (Before George Floyd) because of racial concerns.  UDC wants it back.

**  Virginia man who spray-painted Confederate monument at Arkansas' Capitol pleads guilty to misdemeanor.  You mean it is possible to arrest folks for desecrating something Confederate?  I didn't think that was possible.)

**  From Plato to Confederate statues:  Students study why  some iconic images are broken.  (DePauw University)

**  Remains of Confederate Gen. A.P. Hill could be reinterred to Culpepper's  Fairview Cemetery.  (Right now they are still in Sad R.  believe me, the sooner we can get all vestiges of the Confederacy out of that town the better.)

**  Court says city can ban Confederate flag in veterans parade.  (Imagine our justice system saying something like that.)

Wildman's Dent Myers Civil War Surplus & Herb Shop Hit. Virginia State, Nooses and Virginia

 AUGUST 8, 2021

**  Buildings at Virginia State University renamed for Black women. (Ettrick, Va.   A historically black college.  Actually that makes sense, but wouldn't that make that school a bit racist to be a historically black school.  What would Blacks says if there were historically white schools?)

**  An Amazon site's Black workers  keep finding nooses.  The company needs to act.  (Windsor, Ct.  Those nooses represent a very sad time in our history.  I hope they catch whoever is responsible and fire and prosecute them.  No excuse for this kind of behavior.)

**************************************

AUGUST 9, 2021

**  What follows Confederate statues? 1 Mississippi city's fight.  (Greenwood.  A new statue will be erected in Greenwood for Emmett Till.  I am for this new monument.  This part of history needs to be shown and remembered.)

**  Virginia contends with Confederate names on side streets.  (Well, Virginia.)

**  Group says it vandalized Kennesaw Confederate paraphernalia store with 'Antifa Smurfs'.  (Kennesaw, Georgia.  They hit "Wildman's Dent Myers Civil War Surplus & Herb Shop.  Okay, I can't help but chuckle at this one.  Smurfs.  Mighty Antifa of them.  Of course, Wildman Dent Myers is quite a trip all by himself.   Look him up.)

Good Old Wildman Dent Myers.  --Old Secesh

Oh Those Confederate Flags and the Flag Flap. Bad Amazon, Schools, Editorials, Temporarily Out of BLM Reach

OCTOBER 2, 2020

**  Amazon still selling kids' Confederate soldier costume that Party City pulled.   (So What!)

**  Region 15 school board to consider banning Confederate flag, Nazi swastika in dress code.  (Waterbury, Connecticut.  There is no way the Confederate flag is comparable to the swastika.  If the flag is banned, then so should anything with BLM on it.)

**  Editorial:  What is our Confederate memorials weren't so heroic.   (Historian William "Bud" Robertson on them.  Interesting take.  Give it a read.)

**  Confederate soldiers monument returned to Cumberland  Drive after removal for safekeeping in June.  (Clarkesville, Tennessee.  Isn't it sad that these have to be removed to keep the BLMers and their white minions from getting their hands on them and committing hate crimes. Probably won't be able to stay there long once certain folks find out about it.)

**  To the Editor:  Displaying Confederate flags shows support for  evil and white supremacists.  (I kind of feel the same way about anything BLM.  Definitely a racist outfit if there has ever been one.)

**  Letter to Editor:  Flag Flap:  Confederate flags cause controversy.  (Back in the day it sure didn't.  I used to fly it from the top of my garage in Illinois, along with a U.S. flag, and never had any problem.)

Civil War II: A Very Rare Judicial Win

November 27, 2019.

**  Connecticut man ordered to take down Confederate flag.  I read about this story and believe me, this is someone we don't like flying Confederate flags or having anything to do with our side.  The man flying the flag is a complete jerk and idiot and should be arrested.

**  Sons of Confederate Veterans withdraw Tennessee complaint.

**  1898 descendants divided on George Davis Confederate statue.  Wilmington, N.C.

**  Top Alabama court upholds Confederate monument protections.

**  Legal settlement will keep Confederate  statue off UNC campus.  "Silent Sam"

The Second Civil War: The Dixie Highway, That Gross and Racist Highway

November 26, 2019

**  Sons of Confederate Veterans dismiss case over Franklin stake removal.  At first I thought this was a misprint and should have been statue instead of stake.  But, I read the article which said Franklin, Tennessee, has stakes with the names of Confederate generals killed at the Battle of Franklin.

Six generals were killed at the battle.  A group plans on removing them.

**  'I am scared because I am black.'  Connecticut man ordered to take down Confederate flag after waging harassment campaign against neighbors.

**  'People have thought about this.' :   Majority of North Carolinians want Confederate monuments to stay.

**  Miami-Dade might rename Dixie Highway because its name is gross and racist.

**  North Carolina takes down Confederate statue from courthouse amidst 'high emotions, division, and even violence.'

Now, They're Even Going After Stakes.  --Old Secesh
