This is what Marxism looks like.

-
Two major actions associated with the Atlanta Campaign took place
on and around the approximately 200-acre track of land now owned
by Henry County and formerly part of the old Nash Farm:
Minty’s cavalry saber charge during Kilpatrick’s Raid,
one of the most dramatic moments of the campaign and often cited
as one of the largest cavalry saber charges of the war and certainly
of the Atlanta Campaign, and one of the few that was somewhat successful;
and the infantry Battle of Lovejoy, a rather hotly fought contest
involving the bulk of the two armies across well-fortified lines,
which is overshadowed in the historical literature by the previous
day’s action at Jonesboro. Both of these engagements were
significant events in the last weeks of General William T. Sherman’s
Atlanta Campaign, and the Battle of Lovejoy represented the last battle
of that campaign, ending over four months of nearly continuous marching and fighting.

Nazis were big at removing symbols too as I recall.

Maybe the south should rise again and get rid of these ridiculous people in public office. They get what they vote for.

Why remove the flag?

There was only a request and no legislative decision to remove the flag or close.

There is a nationwide Marxist assault on our history, traditions and national culture. They want to erase ideas of American exceptionalism by erasing history, just like Soviets in USSR. Removal of statues won’t stop in New Orleans. There is a militant group that wants to remove statues of Sam Houston in Texas. They are planning a demonstration in Houston on June 10th at Hermann Park where a statue of Sam Houston is located.

That is a hoax.

That group is promoting their upcoming demonstration on Facebook. I hope you are right, but how do you know?

“Nash Farm Battlefield museum to close after commissioner requests removal of Confederate flags”

There are “protected classes” of people in this country and they have come to understand that this country is “all about me.”

The health care system - all about me.

The rest of the entire economy - all about me.

Social institutions like marriage - all about me.

Military services - all about me.

Immediate gratification - all about me.

And the War Between the States - it was all about me. Six hundred thousand died because they foresaw I would come along 150 years later. The reason they fought and died - it was all about me and for no other reason.

Remove this; remove that; rewrite history. It is all about me.

I looked at that FB page and it seems to be a hoax.
