I have posted this everywhere I can think of. We have got to get some sense about our history and culture:
Confederate soldiers, sailors, and Marines that fought in the Civil war were made U.S. Veterans by an act of Congress in in 1957, U.S. Public Law 85-425, Sec 410, Approved 23 May, 1958. This made all Confederate Army/ Navy/ Marine Veterans equal to U.S. Veterans. Additionally, under U.S. Public Law 810, Approved by the 17th Congress on 26 Feb 1929 the War Department was directed to erect headstones and recognize Confederate grave sites as U.S. War dead grave sites. Just for the record the last Confederate veteran died in 1958. When you remove a Confederate statue, monument or headstone, you are in fact, removing a statue, monument or head stone of a U.S. VETERAN.

18 U.S. Code § 1369 - Destruction of veterans’ memorials (a) Whoever, in a circumstance described in subsection (b), willfully injures or destroys, or attempts to injure or destroy, any structure, plaque, statue, or other monument on public property commemorating the service of any person or persons in the armed forces of the United States shall be fined under this title, imprisoned not more than 10 years, or both. (b) A circumstance described in this subsection is that— (1) in committing the offense described in subsection (a), the defendant travels or causes another to travel in interstate or foreign commerce, or uses the mail or an instrumentality of interstate or foreign commerce; or (2) the structure, plaque, statue, or other monument described in subsection (a) is located on property owned by, or under the jurisdiction of, the Federal Government.

I think “American Taliban” is a better label and needs to be used in place of antifa..... Everyone could understand that label! The other label doesn’t fit their complaints as it’s not the opposition that is fascist. It needs to go away as does “racist”. If I’m a racist for disagreeing with someone, so be it!

There was an article posted on FR by someone this week where the word “Taliban” was used and it fits perfectly! Let’s stop using all the labels the left wants to use. “Taliban” would drive them nuts!!!

It appears to me, that this poor, minding his own business, bronze man was lynched and then the corpse kicked and spat upon by his haters. A hate crime requires severe punishment. Those guilty are on video. Let the prosecution begin!
