The Cultural Cleansing of the Southern States Begins

[Altura Ct.]

A full-fledged cultural cleansing of the Southern states is underway as lawmakers debate whether to remove Confederate flags and rename schools and parks named after Confederate war heroes.

There are also discussions in Washington, D.C. about removing Confederate-related statues from the U.S. Capitol — including a statue of Jefferson Davis, the former president of the Confederacy.

“It’s something to think about,” Sen. Harry Reid told reporters.

Republicans, meanwhile, are leading the charge in South Carolina and Mississippi to remove the Confederate flag — called a symbol of hate and racism.

Wal-Mart jumped on the band wagon, too – announcing they will remove all Confederate merchandise from its stores. EBay announced they will no longer sell Confederate flags or any other memorabilia.

Has the Department of Homeland Security classified the Sons and Daughters of the Confederacy as right-wing hate groups, yet?

Meanwhile, there are dozens of reports from around the southeast of lawmakers hoping to rename parks and schools and streets that were originally named in honor of Confederates.

*Tennessee lawmakers are demanding that a bust of Nathan Bedford Forrest be removed from the statehouse;

*Baltimore lawmakers want to rename Robert E. Lee Park;

*Dallas lawmakers are considering demands to rename Stonewall Jackson Elementary School;

*St. Louis lawmakers are debating over the future of a confederate statue in a city park;

*Commissioners in Hillsborough, North Carolina are debating whether to remove the words “Confederate Memorial” from a Confederate memorial.

It won’t be too long before they start renaming cities and towns and counties named after Confederates. And I reckon it’s only a matter of time before they bulldoze the Confederate grave yards and war memorials too.

Maybe we can just pretend the Civil War never happened.

This is not about parties

The GOP are feckless

Obama doesn’t have to do anything

Lincoln was magnanimous to my defeated ancestry

The radical Republicans were damn sure not

Compare both parties from 1861 on and except for Reagan they both are turdwash

Their mascots could govern better

[wardaddy]

It’s not

Who’s awake

Jim Webb

Jeff sessions

Miss lt governor

Michael berry

To a degree Mark levin...rush even O’Reilly

It’s a short list

My heritage

Southern since Jamestown and Christian

Is simply the lowest hanging fruit

You are correct

Larry Klayman was right today describing this as an Alinsky red diaper baby purge to eventually destroy all of traditional American history as we know it

And our leaders are collaborating with our foes

They are feckless Kapos

[Revelation 911]

wish the sentiments were my own - I read them on twitter

[Pelham]

The purge is being cheered on and maybe even led by ‘Big Tent’ Republicans, the sort who like to make common cause with their friends on the Left but who can always find a problem with people to their right. Give a listen to Hugh Hewitt or Michael Medved and you’ll get the idea. They may be in for a surprise come election time when the targets of their purge leave the tent entirely.

tell me how doing away with southern heritage will solve anything?

[wardaddy]

It doesn’t

It’s a way for progressives to exert power over social conservatisms most resolute and perhaps strongest electorate

And initiates collaboration from white guilt GOPe

And its lowest hanging least defended fruit in the minority grievance battle to destroy our complete history which they see as white privilege racism

I would give my left nut for an honest appraisal of all race stuff

Like why some succeed more than others

Not meaning to bicker but why ask me

I though I was considered our worst south offender since Stand left

I guess I was only looking on the surface...thanks
