Hit List: CNN Publishes Map of Confederate Monuments in U.S.
Breitbart ^ | 17 Aug 2017 | AWR Hawkins

Posted on 08/17/2017 2:04:55 PM PDT by detective

CNN posted a map on August 17 showing the location of approximately 1,500 Confederate monuments and/or official symbols in the U.S.

The map will, no-doubt, serve as a hit-list for the frenzied Workers World Party members and others seeking the removal and destruction of Confederate statues in city after city across America.

CNN reports, “Roughly 1,500 Confederate symbols still exist on public land more than 150 years after the conclusion of the Civil War.” It explains that 718 of the Confederate symbols are “monuments and statutes.”

Some thoughts on the strategery of this:

Let it play out.
Let the Democrats support the “Whiteout” movement while they are trying to woo white blue collar voters.

When an enemy is destroying itself, do not interfere.

Once the Democrats are recognized as the radical fringe party that they are, the statues can be rebuilt.

The important part of this is letting the Left marginalize itself.

Great, even LESS educated electorate, crossing the aisle to pull the lever for....SOME ONE. As if we need any more ‘friends’ in govt than we have today....

Lastly, when has that OTHER 1/2 of loaf *EVER* materialized? Illegals? Taxes? Like the O’Care battle, just 6-7 yrs. after its signing, does anyone think it’ll be meekly accepted to rebuild that which was removed/taken-down??

“It was GONE, why do the (R) want to remind everyone of SLAVERY??”
“Why do (R) want to spend our *hard-earned* taxes on *HATE*?”

Yeah, cede the hill, the battle to reclaim will be MUCH easier *rolls eyes*

#7 by arthurus
When the southern monuments are all gone the founders monuments will follow and the Union monuments, too. What is going on is the eradication of the physical signs that there is a History that extends back beyond the Progressive Age. That is a hindrance to the imposition of Utopia.

Thanks, detective & H/T WildHighlander57

Here's one memorial that CNN can't touch. I-65 in Alabama (that's the highway in the foreground)... on private property, but motorists in the middle of the state can't miss it.

It will go farther even than that. The museums will be purged and will become showcases of the New Order. The Archives will be purged, the internet sanitized and largely shut down with all communication routed through Party moderators and referees and every other vestige of History will be hunted down and eradicated. I am being hyperbolic but the course of these processes is itself hyperbolic. Cambodia is the starkest example but North Korea is close behind. China and Russia were just as bad but the destruction and death were veiled and known by all but a few as simply interesting data in books.

Don’t be so sure....private property may be the next thing these anarchists go for. Didn’t they already destroy private property (storefronts, etc., after the Beserkeley violent mayhem), with NO consequences?

Has CNN published the list of Antifia/other violent leftist groups’ chapters located across the country? Just curious.

They had better not underestimate the array of armaments that the average southern-pride Alabamian can effectively wield.

James K. Polk is the best “unknown” President we ever had. He looked up to Andrew Jackson just like President Trump. Of course, this guarantees that they will definitely try to remove this monument.

It definitely a major part of the agenda to destroy America. Remember when some newspaper published a map of gun owners. Evil, pure evil stirring the pot.

Burn the Constitution. It was written by white Christian slave owners.

Welcome to the Terrorist in Chief’s promised third term. His continuing quest to destroy the Constitution and America.

Did they include all the Bobby KKK Byrd statues and buildings in West Virginia too?

Ok all you good ol boys, rednecks, let’s “see them try that here,” “don’t mess with Texas,” you all know who you are:

Time to put up or shutup.

Right. Because that will happen. Way to justify cowardice.

I’m proud to be from the South, as my tagline makes clear. I’ll never be ashamed of it.

What I am ashamed of, is Southern men. They clearly don’t make ‘em like they used to.
