** After Confederate controversy, Rome experiments with naming historic landmarks. (Rome, Georgia)
** Alabama threatens to sue Montgomery over Confederate street name. (Renamed Jeff Davis Avenue the Fred D. Gray Avenue. Mr. Gray is a Civil Rights attorney.)

** Only one bidder on Confederate-themed park. (Stone Mountain, Georgia. Bidding on the management of it.)
** NJ home's Confederate Halloween display draws outrage. (Jackson, New Jersey. It has two Confederate flags and a ghost that looks liked robed KKK. A bit too much, but if BLM flags and signs are allowed, let this idiot do his thing. They're both equally offensive.)
*********************************
OCTOBER 27, 2021
** Confederate statue hiding in plain sight near trial of there white men accused of killing Ahmaud Arbery. (Brunswick, Georgia. Kind of hard to hide a statue.)
** Montgomery, Ala. drops Confederate street name to honor famed civil rights attorney. (Jefferson Davis Avenue renamed Fred Gray Avenue. Again, let's not rename every Confederate street after a black person. Name some other street.)

** Man who flew Confederate flag near intersection of two Florida interstates found dead. (Tampa, Florida. 30 x 60 foot flag on a 139-foot pole at intersection of I-4 and I-75. The flag had been taken down temporarily in June in the wake of the Floyd killing amidst the BLM riots after threats to burn it were received. The man's death was a result of injury from a farm animal.)
** Isle of Wight votes to remove Confederate monument from public property. (Virginia. This was a vote by the board of commissioners, not the public. The motion to move it was brought by the only black member of the board. Like I say, all it takes is for one black person to be offended to get things like this done. Sad. Very sad. Whatever happened to majority rules? Now its Black rules.)
** Booker, Lee announce re-introduction of bicameral bill to remove Confederate statues from Capitol. (Booker is a black man who is U.S. Senator from New Jersey. Lee is a black woman who is a U.S. Representative from California. Big surprise. They are both Democrats. Where have we heard this before. I wonder if the woman knows that she needs to change her last name?)
** Lowndes Co. supervisors take next steps in moving Confederate monument. (Mississippi. They accepted bids to dismantle, store and re-erect the statue in Friendship Cemetery for $80,000. However, I still believe that the expenses should be paid by those who want it removed, not the government.)
