A group of anti-Confederate protesters aren’t happy enough with the declaration by the city of Memphis that it wants to dig up and move the remains of Confederate general Nathan Bedford Forrest.
They want it done now.
A group surrounded a shovel Wednesday and ceremoniously removed a chunk of grass and soil.

Most places desecrating a grave is a criminal offence.

TN law is quite specific about monuments. This is a felony if they continue to dig and/or deface the monument. The city cannot just “do it” either. Irony is that Forrest, in the last years of his life went out of his way to stabilize Reconstruction TN, and disbanded the klan. The klan everyone generalizes about, was resurgent and HQ’d in.... wait for it.... Indiana (a yankee state).

Ummm, if they expended this much physical energy at work they would be making above minimum wage, even if it was $15.00/hour.

I Bet this is a “put up job” and they’re a “rent a mob” sent in to “stir the pot” as it were.

So THIS is what obama meant by shovel-ready jobs.
I heard they were planning to dig the entire thing up, but after one scoop they were heard to complain “Oh man - this is too much like work!”
