I’m surprised that they didn’t immediately start a bonfire. “Burn the past! Hide our history!”

They intend to use this event in Charlottesville as a catalyst to remove all Confederate monuments.
When they are done with that they will move on to some other aspect of American history.
Anyone resisting the erasure of history will be tarred as a racist white supremacist.
Everyone who is not behind Antifa, BLM and the rest must be racists, bigots, sexists, homophobes, Islamophobes, etc.
No defense of American history, values, culture or way of life will be tolerated.

“The statue was moved after critics argued that it was a symbol of slavery and shouldn’t be displayed at a city park.”

Why would no one stand up and say no, this is not a symbol of slavery and the statue will remain in place?

As a Northerner, I am saddened that all history of the South and the Confederacy are being destroyed.

They opened the Time Capsule and found:

America’s common sense. I wondered where it went.

Guess the morons in BLM don’t know that just as they get rid of the history they don’t like, someone will come along in the future and erase their history as well. Wonder where they’ll take all the MLK stuff.

I moved from Florida to Kentucky in 2006, and didn’t know Buddy Dyer was still mayor. Of course it’s no surprise that he is doing his part to erase the history of the Confederacy.

They should have put plague germs in the box before sealing it.

The thought that popped into my mind when I read this was the last scenes in TIME BANDITS.

“MOM! DAD! DON’T TOUCH IT! IT’S EVIL!”

"I thought it was all going to be dust,"
Compared to that 1957 Plymouth Fury that was in a time capsule in the ground in Oklahoma Cty for just over 50 yrs. When they dug it up they found it deteriorated into a literal rust bucket beyond restoration. All I know if I was there and Marty Robbins or Little Richard started blasting out of the car's radio, I'd HEAD FOR THE HILLS!! :)

No, Buddy Dyer ALONE decided to move the monument after one line blogger kept harrassing him. No vote by the people or even city council. Of course Dyer is a dem.

Dyer’s 17 yo son crashed a brand new Lexus into a house at 1AM a few years ago. He said the brakes failed. Ha! Cops found a bag of weed in the bushes but the whole incident just went away, amazingly.

Wasn’t the “Daughters of Confederate Soldiers a black Women’s group?

If these crazy liberals want to get rid of anything that symbolizes the history of slavery, then, following that logic, we would have to get rid of democrats (slave owners), and every black person in the country (slaves).

That’s Confederate history. It is racist and must be destroyed.
