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.
We are going to bring the back hoe, the tractors and the men with the equipment to raise Bedford Forrest from the soil of Memphis, Isaac Richmond with the Commission on Religion and Racism declared to awaiting TV cameras, CBS 3 reported.
You're.
A cursory glance at Tennessee state law leads me to believe this activity is probably a class E felony.
When I was a kid I wanted Johnny Yuma’s sawed off shotgun SO bad!
I also wanted Lucas McCain’s rifle, Paladin’s derringer, Johnny Ringo’s revolver w/shotgun barrel, Josh Randall’s “mare’s leg” cut down Winchester, the list goes on.
Anyway...The Rebel was about a Confederate veteran in the Old West. What were his politics? IIRC, he was too busy righting wrongs & fighting injustice to have any “racist” views.
Get this, immediately, to See BS!! I’m sure they’ll notify the authorities about TN law being broken. /s
Obviously Tom Hanks is very smart and knew his character was named after the Confederate who founded the KKK. Therefore, Hanks is a racist!
Standing in line w/you.
Ty Hardin, Will Hutchins, James Garner- they were all seen once a week whenever possible. If there happened to be a western on television, my dad would watch (unless there happened to be a football game on at the same time!)
LOL it wasn’t until years later we children found there were other shows to be seen that weren’t westerns. One favorite was “Adventures in Paradise” Gardner McKay as Adam Troy. Others were the PI tee vee shows: 77 Sunset Strip and the 5 or 6 which followed suit. Occasionally, we can still catch them on the newer digital local channels. They just don’t make shows like that any longer. Our loss.
When for a short while I lived in L.A., I would pass the Sunset Strip place where Cookie worked as a valet.
Remember ‘Surfside 6’? (”From Miami Beach”!!) On the tube around 1961 or so.
Tennessee Cemetery & Burial Site Laws
Statutory Laws
(Tennessee Code Annotated)
Title 46. Cemeteries
46-2-105. Crimes and offenses
(a) No person shall willfully destroy, deface, or injure any monument, tomb, gravestone, or other structure placed in the cemetery, or any roadway, walk, fence or enclosure in or around the same, or injure any tree, plant or shrub therein, or hunt or shoot therein, play at any game or amusement therein, or loiter for lascivious or lewd purposes therein, or interfere, by words or actions, with any funeral procession or any religious exercises.
(b) A violation of this section is a Class E felony.
I would think that grave robbing is a felony. Prosecute everyone present.
Against the first and in support of the later?
If somebody shot them I would not only vote to acquit but also award a commendation for marksmanship. This is prefatory stuff. Confederate figures are really just a socially acceptable proxy for whites generally (something that many a retarded leftist will learn to their sorrow in time).
It WAS a long time ago, lol. He was cute.
Oh, but of course! Troy Donahue.
77 Sunset Strip w/ Edd Byrnes
Bourbon Street Beat - Richard Long
Hawaiian Eye - Robert Conrad
and then we had “The Alaskans” with Dorothy Provine and Roger Moore.
USA in complete vertigo. I never thought I would live to see it nor be deathly afraid for future generations. There are things I wish I could say but I will still keep everything to myself. I will say if the American enemies of America want a fight,they eventually will get hell on Earth. It will not be a video game or bullshit movie. I understand hyperbole and real politicking and that line has been crossed by the left AND Islam BTW.
