If the PA Governor is going to set conditions,, just down the road is Antietam, n Maryland.. the bloodiest day in which Americans died in battle. Interestingly, the Maryland monument there commemorated both Union and Confederate soldiers.

Didn't I just read yesterday that Antifa or BLM was planning their assault on Occupy White House to begin on September 17? Someone mentioned that it was the bloodiest day of the Civil War in Antietam. I checked, the 17th is on a Thursday this year so certainly an "unusual" day to begin an assault. However, the battle at Antietam very well could be the symbolism they're hoping to replicate.

Yes it does— and is truly a moving tribute to the brave Americans who fought and died there. The emotions of that memorial and the heartfelt respect it represented— brought and still brings tears to our family’s eyes.

Last there 4 years ago— never forget it (and who we lost, both sides, at Sharpsburg- our name for the terrible battle).
