PITTSBORO, N.C. (AP) — Police in North Carolina say they've arrested two people after a "physical altercation" at a protest over a Confederate statue slated to be removed.
The Chatham County Sheriff's Office said Saturday it arrested Calvin James Megginson and Timothy James Osborn on charges related to the altercation. Both were released and are due in court next month.
A pro-Confederate group is trying to stop removal of the statue, which has been stationed outside the county courthouse in Pittsboro since 1907.which has been stationed outside the county courthouse in Pittsboro since 1907.

Save your Confederate money, boys!
Looks like they arrested one of each. lol
I was kinda thinking that. Dunno.
Which is the bearded lady and which the carny huckster?
I say put them both in a cell together. Either it will be Thunderdome and only one will come out alive or they will leave together and go find a justice of the peace.
Glad to see protests against this leftist action.
These are decidedly NOT pro-Confederate types
Yep, I have no problem with them protesting the Leftist destroyers of historical statues. But PRO CONFEDERATE? I have never met or heard of a pro Confederate group? Is there any such thing? Are there such things as Confederate revolutionaries?
Haha, Thunderdome:
“Two men enter, one man leaves...and right now, I’ve got two men, two men with a gut full of fear, Ladies and Gentlemen, boys and girls, dyin’ time’s here!”
When small towns in rural areas start erasing history, something has changed.
One looks normal and the other looks like Belle of the Ball in the Big House. I hope she brings her lipstick.
Any time you see a Civil War thread here you’ll see them come out of the woodwork, the Johnny Reb wanna be’s I mean. Not that they’re specially organized.
That is the definition used to smear reasonable people who are against rewriting history.
This crap was also instrumental in Trump’s victory.
After the Haley flag flap, everyone and their dog rushed out to buy flags, here....even people who normally wouldn’t give a rip.
Sellers couldn’t keep them in stock.
Roadside vendors popped up everywhere.
Gettysburg Bike Week that July had lines of people, of all colors, waiting in line to have flag patches sewn onto their vests.
This desecration irritates normal people a lot.
Next we will be having the landscape of the Bible (beginning over 3400 years ago) changed to fit the times in which we find ourselves. We are truly a nation gone berserk!
CW2 can’t come quick enough.
That’s what I’m afraid of.
Thank you
I am against removal of monuments/rewriting of history.........very dangerous precedent!
