The NAACP, New Black Panthers and other radical black leftist groups were at the rally and confronted Barnum when she burned her NAACP card.
Then she was run off the road. Examiner reported:
“ Arlene Barnum, a Vietnam-era veteran of the U.S. Army and Republican activist who supports the Confederate battle flag, burned her lifetime membership card to the NAACP at a multi-racial unity rally to save the Linn Park Confederate Monument in Birmingham, Alabama, Saturday. After the rally, however, Barnum was injured in an accident when the truck she was in rolled over after reportedly being chased, Save Our South public relations spokesperson Jonathan Barbee told Examiner.com Sunday. Supporters were relieved to hear Barnum survived, but were saddened by Hervey’s death. Hervey, Barbee told Examiner, was a veteran from Mississippi who received the Purple Heart.
According to the News-Capital, Barnum said Hervey noticed a vehicle speeding up to catch them. The vehicle started to swerve into their passenger side, the report said. Apparently, Hervey sped up, but a silver vehicle continued to pursue them. Barnum reportedly said the entire incident happened quite fast.
“HELP,” she said on Facebook as the incident was taking place. “They after us. My vehicle inside down.” It is unclear, exactly, who “they” were, and unsubstantiated rumors quickly spread. Later, she tweeted: “Anthony Hervy pinned in… gas leaking.”
“Our hearts and prayers go out to our friends and their families today,” Barbee said in his press release. “We were all very proud of our peaceful event that brought everyone together in unity right here in Birmingham, which is home to the Civil Rights movement. Unlike the events in South Carolina, our event was peaceful and all races were encouraged and welcomed to attend.”
Mississippi Burning with a twist.

Will there be justice for her? How scary.
bkmk
Obama will be sending swarms of FBI agents down there any minute.
May God keep them safe. Bless their hearts. I hope they have lots of friends (fellow republicans) around them.
Accident? You keep in using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.
They are bound to have some suspects. Had to have been someone that witnessed the rally and followed them.
Facebook instead of 9-1-1? Followers instead of police? Strange strategy!
I didn’t write the article. I see this as nothing but murder and attempted murder.
Black Southern Heritage defender possibly murdered by Black Panthers in returning from Flag Rally
A somewhat related article here...
Does Black America Understand We've Declared War On the Confederacy?
This has caused great angst in the White Hut and Obama has promised a swift investigation. Anybody holding their breath??
Nope. No holding breath here. I’m sure Lynch will be all over it and Sharpton will be outraged. /s
Thanks for those links.
You’re welcome.
Pretty sad state of affairs this country has come to.
Prayers to the Hervey family....Blacks attacking and killing blacks...
Yes, prayers for all. May Hervey RIP. Very sad.
Headline should read:
“Black American murdered by NAACP / Black Panthers”
