The Second Civil War: Back to Alexandria and Louie Doesn't Get His Way

FEBRUARY 3, 2023

**  The base of the Appomattox statue has resurfaced atop Confederate graves in Alexandria.  (Virginia.  This one is about Confederate surrender.  Why would the Confederate-haters be against this.  Don't let CAIR or SPLC know about it.)

**  Here's what Manatee, Bradenton residents said about  Confederate statue's possible return.  (Florida)

**  Louie Minor's motion to destroy Bell Confederate statue fails.  (Bell County, Texas.  He is a Mexican-American.)

Civil War II: Renaming Streets and Desecrating Confederate Graves

JANUARY 12, 2023

**  Alexandria moves to speed up renaming of Confederate streets.  (Virginia.  Washington Post article.  Don't you just know the Post is all for this.)

**  Alexandria aims to rename three Confederate-honoring streets every year.  (Of course, they will have to be renamed for black people.)

**  Confederate gravesites desecrated  in Surry County, sheiff's  office says.  (North Carolina.  Two were arrested and charged  with felony disturbing a grave marker.  How about that, it wasn't a case of vandalism as the Post would call it.  And two people were arrested for it.)

Imagine There Being a White Activist? Bubba and Tennessee

MARCH 17, 2022

**  History buff and veterans rights activist sues to return Confederate grave markers in Madison.  (Wisconsin.  Imagine there being such a thing as a non-black activist!!  I here I was thinking that all activists had to be Blacks.  And, I would still like to know what college you have to go to to get your degree in activism?)

**  Bubba Wallace  on what it means to be authentic, talks Confederate flag at SXSW.  (Bubba is the only black driver at the top level of NASCAR and threw a hissy fit about the Confederate flags at events and really Kappy Nappered it.  And, then there was that "noose" thing.)

**  Williamson County seal  public comments to Tennessee Historical Commission.

Confederadication: Jacksonville, Maryland, Belle Boyd's Grave, Boy Scouts, Fort Bragg and Monumentless Avenue in Sad R.

SEPTEMBER 15, 2021

**  Rally calls for removal of Confederate monuments in Jacksonville.  (Florida.  About two dozen people.  That is one huge rally.)

**  Last Confederate monument  on Md. public land set to come down.  (Maryland.  The Talbot Boys monument.  This was in the Washington Post.  Do you suppose they are happy about this?)

**  Confederate spy's grave still stands.  (Kilburn City, (Wisconsin Dells) Wisconsin   Belle Boyd's grave site.  The writer, a college student seems to be a real Confederate hater.)

**  Scout official:  Confederate flags flown by  troop in Peach Days parade an honest mistake.  (Utah.  Boy Scouts)

**  Public suggest renaming Fort Bragg after Union General Edward Bragg.  (Like I said, a good idea.)

**  2020-21:  When Confederate monuments came down from Monument Avenue in Richmond.  (Now it's Monumentless Avenue in Sad R.  Too bad the Blacks didn't just make their own avenue to honor their people.)

It Is So Sad That the SCV Has to Go Through All That Precaution to Rebury Gen. Forrest and His Wife

Their bodies are finally out of that city by the Mississippi River which never did anything to stop the desecration that certain non-white groups and their white minions did to the tombs of Nathan Bedford Forrest and his wife, Mary Anne.

But, as the Sons of Confederate Veterans get ready to rebury them in a place of safety, the amount of precaution they have to go through is amazing.  This should not happen to the dead.

Why do you suppose all the precautions have to be taken?

And, in the meantime, so far during the Labor Day weekend in Chicago, the tally of shootings, most of whom are Black-on-Black, stands at 6 killed and 60 wounded.  One of the five dead is a 4-year-old boy.

The Confederacy Under Attack... Again: Forrest, Confederate Sympathizers, Tombstones Toppled and Have a Coke

MARCH 14, 2021

**  Final removal of Confederate  cavalry general  Forrest from Tennessee Capitol could take months.

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

MARCH 15, 2021

**  Men behind  Walters art collection were Confederate sympathizers, officials at Baltimore museum say.  (So?)

**  Alachua  County looks for new  art for space where  Confederate soldier 'Old Joe' once stood.  

**  Civil War hospital  discovered in downtown New Bern.  (North Carolina.  Imagine "Real Civil War" stuff under Confederate search.)

**  Tombstones  toppled at historic Hollywood Cemetery in Richmond.  (I don't know if they were Confederate gravestones or not.  But, I had to chuckle at the mayor's response to this of moral outrage after what he has allowed done to Sad R's Confederate monuments.)

**  Coquitlam  forklift operator  wins case against Coca Cola after Confederate flag mask worn at work.  (Wore it, got fired and won case.)

Are Confederate Veterans Considered to be United States Veterans?

Not according to the anti-Confederate folks  who regard them as being the same as the Nazi guards at the German concentration camps during World War II.  Few in world history have been worse.  They deserved nothing but shame and their memory eliminated because of the stain of slavery.

But, how come Confederates are buried in National Cemeteries?  How come they are issued gravestones by the U.S. government?  Why is it that the widows and children are eligible for federal pensions?

Perhaps, somehow, someway, they are U.S. veterans.  As such, disrespect to any of them is tantamount to disrespect for all U.S. veterans.

Something the Confederate haters should think about before they commit hate crimes (i.e. "vandalize") Confederate statues and memorials.  I guess we should condemn them to be a part of those who showed such disrespect for our veterans returning from the Vietnam War.
