A leading archeologist tweeted instructions on how to safely topple an obelisk as George Floyd protestors in her town toppled a Confederate statue during a demonstration that escalated into unrest. University of Alabama at Birmingham archeologist Sarah Parcak took to Twitter Sunday evening offering details on how to bring an obelisk down as demonstrators in the city's Linn Park defaced a Confederate monument and tore down a statue of Confederate Naval captain Charles Linn Sunday night. A day earlier, protestors in Nashville, Tennessee, toppled a statue of Edward Carmac, a former politician and newspaper publisher who wrote editorials expressing racist views.

She is practicing Engineering with out a license.

Also, she’s using the internet so 18 USC Ch. 102 might be worth taking a look at.

I’ll believe they are sincere when they dig up Robert Byrd’s grave and demand his name removed from buildings and depose the blackface/klansman governor of Virginia.

>>Because Washington owned slaves he is not deserving of honor according to today’s politically correct crowd.

President Trump asked where does this destruction of memorials and statues end? Do they go after Jefferson? Washington?

The two sides have switched since then as Republicans were the wild eyed liberal radicals and the Democrats were the conservatives in the 19th century.

Well, Washington lived in a time when there we slaves—so isn’t he automatically bad? Thus, his obelisk in bad.

That was not the terrorists’ right to destroy Sen. Carmack’s statue. It should be restored and billed to those who damaged it.

Legitimate “archaeologists” would point out this longing for destruction, would include the Pyramids and most of the ancient Roman empire

By act of Congress Confederate soldiers are considered U.S. veterans and it is a felony to disfigure a war memorial. Round up the perpetrators and charge them, including this architect.

In Washington DC communist AF desecrated the World War II Memorial to people who fought genuine fascism and gave their lives fighting it.

Those activists will regret pulling down Confederate statues and monuments when they see the giant Trump statues that they just made room for.

When I drove through West Virginia, I saw a chain of gas stations that carried Senator Byrd’s nickname — Sheetz. Do you think the Leftists will want to rename those, too?

I don’t buy that argument. Democrats in the past have used lies, colluded with foreign powers, physical coercion / intimidation and even murder in order to retain their political power. It is no different today.

Can you point to time in history when the Republican party has resorted to this?
