Daily Caller:
The Alabama senate passed a bill Friday which would prevent the changing of the names of Confederate memorials and removing of historic Confederate monuments.
The bill “would prohibit the relocation, removal, alteration, renaming, or other disturbance of any architecturally significant building, memorial building, memorial street, or monument that has stood on public property for 40 or more years,” reads the text of the bill, reported Yahoo News.
Yay us!
While the shits are at it removing confederate statues, I think they ought to get rid of battlefields too. Same thing….. where do you draw a line?
I need more land to build condos….
How would they like it if every street named Martin Luther King Boulevard was changed back to what it was before he was assassinated, because of his socialist leanings and close association with known communists? Why not open the sealed FBI files that were suppressed to conceal these facts when Ronald Reagan signed the act that created Martin Luther King Day?
Go Alabama! (A daughter in-law is from there.)
They should have allowed them to remove those old democrats.
Sometimes you need to understand what you’re defending against.
Tearing down our history is equivalent to Book burning in Berlin.
Good for them. Whether you admired or detested the people depicted they were there to make sure that you never forgot history or worse, rewrote it.
Have to get inside the commie OODA loop, this is good but it is reactionary. I think Marco^^^ has an idea along that line.
Fargin’ War it is.
“Deo Vindice”.
Who would have ever thought such a Bill would be required to save historical monuments?
Sad state of affairs when communities and states are not able to honor those who served, fought and died to protect Constitutional State’s Rights against an ever encroaching Federal Government.
I am in favor of taking Robert Byrd’s name off of everything.
Rufus T Firefly: “God Will Prove US Right” is the motto on the Great Seal of the Confederate States of America. Thank you for reminding us of that politically incorrect aspiration.
Confederate remembrances are like those videos of your brother successfully daring you to eat a booger, or your sister having you nibble that cookie that came from her Easy Bake Catbox.
A long time ago, stupid old people, who are thankfully long dead, thought it was acceptable to say “no” to foreigners who screeched “You will respect mah authoritah!” because the screechers also wrote memos of their screeching. And even stupider old people, who are even more thankfully dead, thought it would solve the issue to tell such people “You mind your business. I’ll mind mine.”, as long as they also wrote a memo.
What’s the point of publicly shaming stupid?
Roll Tide!

Foolish people who defy the fatwas of their professional betters.
War Eagle!
About Dang Time.
War Dann Eagle! I won’t e going to nola anytime soon.
Alabama did rhe right thing. Selective memory is a favorite communist tactic. Leave history alone – It can never be erased.
