I'd rather show a shoe at Mitch, like an Arab.

We still have our Confederate Monument on the state capital grounds in Montgomery. And nobody is taking it down.



There is a bill being introduced in the Alabama legislature that would prohibit the removal of historical monuments.

If I was a NOPD officer I would resign tomorrow for a multitude of reasons the biggest being that the NOPD is now seen as nothing more than glorified construction staff.

Once the removal crew gets there in the morning the police presence will increase.

They're not going to have 100 cops standing around until 6 am when they start the removal. They want them to get some rest because tomorrow is going to be a long day for them.

I imagine it all pays the same.

What happened to the firefighters being mad about having to do it? Did the union get a bigger payoff to stay quiet?

RTA is probably there to take down the street car cables.

More public money being spent.

No parking starts at midnight. Likely starts in the early morning.

The problem with that is the wind is blowing like a mofo and I don't think the light towers will shine light that high. If they point the lights up they will be shining light in every hotel room, apt, condo.

Sweet I guess that means white guilt and talk of reparations dies after tonight too. Thank the lord, no more excuses, we are now all on the same playing field.

25 mph gust.

That circle is a whirlwind, and that high up you bet it's terrible and unsafe.

That's rational. But let's not act like the people leading this endeavor are rational or even think in a rational or logical manner.

Such a shame.
