Removed it illegally and then turn to the courts to appeal the remedy. They know nothing of the history of what Silent Sam represented.

[CodeJockey]

The statue was only paying homage to some of the alumni of the university who gave their lives to protect their homes and farms from the Union army who were running roughshod over the state.

It’s history. Get over it.

They want to protect history by burning it.

They know nothing of the history of what Silent Sam represented.

They don't care. They are the American Taliban.

“Silent Sam” has always been PRIVATELY OWNED & should be turned to the SCV, as the successor to the UCV that paid for & erected it on the UNC campus.

Further, had the President of UNC had any guts he would have had the vandals, who unlawfully tore down the statue, arrested, charged with damaging property & prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. = SADLY, the UNC President proved to be “a cowardly lion” & GUTLESS.

88 alumni, you say?

What is '88'? The eighth letter of the alphabet is 'H' so '88' is 'HH' which stands for "Heil Hitler"! So the 88 alumni are actually closet Nazis!

Why must there be money involved. Why not just give it to the Sons of Confederate Veterans?
