Far left Antifa activists are planning to protest at Gettysburg National Battlefield on the anniversary of the historic battle and burn confederate flags on the historic day.

The violent far left group has been vandalizing Confederate monuments across the country this year.

Harrisburg100 reported:

Over the past few weeks, several US cities have been a hotbed of controversy over the removal of several Confederate monuments. After decades standing sentinel over New Orleans, the last of four Confederate monuments have been removed after being labeled as “Monuments of Racism and Hate”. New Orleans Mayor Mitch Landrieu said of the removal of his city’s monuments: “To literally put the Confederacy on a pedestal in our more prominent places—in honor—is an inaccurate recitation of our full past, is an affront to our present and it is a bad prescription for our future”. The next state to follow in the footsteps in the movement is Arizona, where leaders call for the swift removal of six Confederate monuments around the state…

…A local group of self-proclaimed anti-fascism activists called “ANTIFA” are planning on holding a rally at Gettysburg National Battlefield on July 1st in protest of President Trump and asks it’s members to “Bring and Burn Confederate Flags”. The reasoning behind why this group picked the date and location for their rally is for the importance Gettysburg played in the American Civil War. The Battle of Gettysburg started on July 1, 1863, when Lee’s Army of Northern Virginia met General George Meade’s Union Army of the Potomac. During the three-day battle, about 165,000 soldiers clashed in and around the small town of Gettysburg...

The Globalist are desperate, trying to enrage Americans and start a physical civil war. All because they lost an election in 2016.

I guess these idiots think this will win people over to their side?

Oh yes they are useful idiots.

Nevertheless, they are are funded by Globalists.

This is what Globalists do to start revolutions in different Countries. They are the puppet masters.

To borrow a few words from someone who stopped by to give a short speech there.

in a larger sense, we can not dedicate -- we can not consecrate -- we can not hallow -- this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract.

National park. Lots of volunteers there who revere the place. And those monuments are substantial.

Most of these kids are college students, live with their parents.

They are all losers, and they are being funded by the Globalists to attack.

That’s how the Globalists game works. They fund these radical groups in different countries to stir up chaos and a revolution.

The Leftist idiots are too stupid to do it on their own. They have a funding source. We have to go after the funding source to end this.

Moreover, if they are desecrating graves at a National Park I believe that is a felony.

They, like all leftists, are trying to destroy the icons of this country. By destroying our history, and our pride.

If Landrieu really feels that way he should take the circle out of Lee Circle. Put in a 4 way stop light where the statue and pedestal used to stand.
