Anyone else hear this rumor?? Would this sack of shite really be so cowardly to do such a thing?

EDIT:
Would this sack of shite be so cowardly to do it again? I bet this one catches a little more flack and should.

Tomorrow at MIDNIGHT! And they're going to MELT THEM DOWN!

I just saw this stupid shite on FaceBook. Honest to God, I'm almost ready to just let them "take 'em down" just so I don't have to hear the hysteria anymore.

I overheard some people talking about it this afternoon as we were leaving the aquarium. Pointing and talking about the one that is by the parking lot next to the tracks.

Seems like every other night there's a "they're sneaking around and taking them down tonight" rumor.

I wish somebody would buy them from the city and put them up on private land in a prominent location.

I heard they were spreading the rumor that it will happen tomorrow night so that when it doesn't happen, everyone will write it off as a rumor and then they will do it Monday night.

Can't wait til it happens so I can see all the confederate snowflakes melt down like the reactor at Chernobyl.

Gonna grab my popcorn and it's gonna be glorious.

Personally, I don't give a shite one way or another. Not my city. Not my statues. Keep em up. Take em down. Don't care. But the melt is going to be epic.

The Battle of Liberty Place monument is pretty obnoxious. I can understand how it pisses people off, but it doesn't bother me. But on the other hand, I'm not losing any sleep over it, either.

Jefferson Davis? He was President of the Confederacy ... BAD!!! But he was also a US Senator, Secretary of War and a bunch of other shite. He was incarcerated after the Civil War, but never tried for treason because the government didn't want to try to argue the legality/illegality of secession in federal court.

Lee and Beauregard were no where near as racist as some other prominent leaders of their time, including Abraham Lincoln. It's a shame that these two men who made an effort to reconstruct the country are now denegrated by people with only a minimal understanding of our history.

Well would you feel the same way if they wanted to remove a significant piece of history wherever you call home, for no other reason than to appease a handful of folks who have nothing else better to do than complain about such frivolity. This is all too great theater for ole Mitch as he is able to get the public to focus on this while roads are crumbling and crime runs rampant. He is an ineffective moron on those issues, so instead he chooses to chase these fabricated boogeymen so it can make it seem like he actually does something with his time.

I live in uptown and honestly don't give a frick about these statues. I couldn't tell you the last time I thought about these statues before the topic came up.

I also don't bitch about General Pershing Street either.

Thats fair, but to take stuff down for no other reason than a tiny percentage of folks are somehow bothered is absurd. Where in the hell does it end?

Who the frick cares?

Only a tiny percentage wants them up, and most of those don't pay a dime in property taxes to the city.
