AM: Police believe arsonists attempted to burn down the Confederate Memorial Hall Museum near New Orleans’ Lee Circle early Wednesday morning as election results made it clear Donald Trump is the next president of the United States.
Two men hopped the gate in front of the museum shortly before 2 a.m., one with a tire in hand, and they set it ablaze on the front steps of the building before fleeing the scene, Richard Angelico, member of the museum’s board, told The Advocate.
Firefighters responded around 2:15 p.m. when the fire set off the heat sensors near the door, which was damaged by the incident. The granite steps also cracked as a result, a fire department spokesman said. MORE
Mandela still dead? Because this is His M.O.
Why do progs hate history so much? And Trump is as Yankee as you can get.
i think that when arrests are made of these types of lowlifes, they should be required to take a basic history test, and their scores get posted with their mugshots
Despicable. These cretins are right down there with the taliban in attempting to erase history.
They must have been on their way to church to sing in the choir when they tripped over their cigarette lighter and it started the building on fire. Nice boys din du nutin!
Post a couple of well armed, good ole rednecks at each historic Confederate site. Believe me, they will volunteer. Problem solved.
SR… they hate history because they’re not connected to it. It’s inconsequential, in their eyes.
This from the same movement tat preached tolerance and understanding to us, throughout Obama’s administration.
“that”
… & this hurts Trump ….. how?
I’d be seriously pissed off if these Leftist fascists burn down that museum. Last I heard, it contains one of the uniforms of my distant great-great-great uncle Confederate states of America Maj General Mansfield Lovell, loser of the Defense of New Orleans during the War Of Northern Aggression.
