A group of anti-Confederate protesters arent 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.
The Taliban at it again?
It’s Isis destroying history.
It’s not about NBF, the Confederacy or a flag, its about thuggery and bullying.
They should go after Planned Parenthood, the drug dealers in their neighborhoods and start snitching the gang-bangers out.
That’s the biggest threat to their people. Not a pair of old bones in a grave.
Don’t deal with today’s reality-—go chase a ghost.
Silly people.
The Mayor should cut a chicken and sprinkle it’s blood over the grave to appease the Voodoo believers.
ok this is now getting beyond ridiculous!
Bet there was a lot of ‘shovel leaning’, small talk, and smoking.
Vile, disgusting, pieces of sub-human shit.
Funny how all the weeks and months and years before now they didn't dig up anything, didn't agitate for flag removal, didn't demand schools change their names.
This is nothing more than emboldened and selective outrage over Confederacy anything. All they know is what they hear from Bill Maher and CNN and like good little soldiers they are sent to do the Democrat Party's work.
Should say, “A group of democrat Obama voters...”
American Taliban.
An anachronistic culture desperately looking for relevance. What a joke.
I’m sure...Any Sons of Confederate Veterans willing to stand watch and challenge these vandals?
Hey if the leftists and the blacks want to play the dig up the Reb game we have thousands of dead Yankees laying around Richmond battlefield graveyards. Two can play that game and we got no shortage of back hoes.
Where are the Memphis Police?
Were I a descendant of the Forrest family, and these criminals tried to desecrate my ancestor’s grave. I would gladly go to jail for stopping them by any means necessary.
It’s always evil men who desecrate the graves of their enemies, never just men.
Throw a job application or a bar of soap and watch many of them drop dead in terror.
A vile and seething pox be upon them that no man can remove.
These folks don’t need any racist statements egging them on. Let it go.
93% of blacks are killed by other blacks, but those lives apparently don’t matter.
