If the City of Memphis moves forward with this and does something this offensive, I can guarantee you that all hell is going to break loose:

Note: There is already a Memphis rally scheduled for July 12th which will take place in Forrest Park at 2 PM. If you can make it, GO.

    It is almost as if they are baiting the White Man, daring him to fire the first shot.

    Well, the recent SCOTUS decisions WERE the first shot- or last straw, make no mistake about it. The UN’s Declaration on Genocide is warrant enough to have firearms present, and the Second Amendment was written for just such a rogue government’s immoral and illegal actions.

    This is on a par with the Jacobin’s desecration of the High Altar in Notre Dame- not AS blasphemous, but the same intent is behind it.

    May God be with you, those who are going to protest. This is a sacrilege against European White Man, as a race, a culture, and the bedrock upon which this nation was founded.

  • Proud American

    Please do not give in to this insane political correctness. For one thing, it won’t correct anything because the past is the past and it cannot be changed. We need to remember our past so we can continue to learn from it. What will be next that a minority of people want to remove? In Oklahoma, a Ten Commandments monument is being removed and Satanists are openly celebrating. What next….Christian churches altogether? Are we actually going to let Satanists and also hateful blacks and their misguided supporters control the country? Is anyone realizing what is really going on? It is the left who is pushing the division of races and utilizing their armies of Occupy anarchists to bring down our wonderful country because of ulterior motives. Stop this in it’s tracks!

  • John Bonaccorsi, Philadelphia

    Well, I got a kick out of the interview at 1:05 of that Fox News Memphis video:

    “I think that we should keep the sculpture over here, because it’s part of our history. There is no bad history or good history. I mean it’s our past; we should respect, no matter what it is.”

    The person who said that was a Dr. Anna Bukiya–not exactly an Anglo-Celtic name–and had not a Southern accent but an accent like a Russian spy in a Hollywood movie of the Cold War. Only in America.

  • Yes, they were going to erect a statue of Satan at the Oklahoma State Capitol! Hopefully, they will put it outside of the US Supreme Court in Washington.

  • Captain John Charity Spring MA

    These blacks are Voodoo practitioners.

    I predicted they’d dig up the dead.

    Hunter Wallace says:

    ‘Yes, they were going to erect a statue of Satan at the Oklahoma State Capitol! Hopefully, they will put it outside of the US Supreme Court in Washington.’

    Who needs a statue when Satan sits inside the US Supreme Court masquerading as a quasi-human.

    Take a good look at it’s evil face. Horns and pitchfork photoshopped out.

  • Captain John Charity Spring MA

    In the village of Nieva de Cameros, in Spain the local Priest recently removed the sword from a statue of Santiago. So that Spanish Muslims would not be offended.

    Exhumations and statue destruction won’t satisfy the people behind these attacks.

  • Captain John Charity Spring MA

    Sam,

    I read through that debate in the comment section.

    It’s unfortunate that no one mentioned that Ginsberg resembles a demon. Nor did anyone mention that the American population is collapsing at least in part because white women have abortions, and that certain Demons might be more than happy to straggle our population.

  • Afterthought

    This shows the level of hate we are dealing with. Digging up a grave? This is pre-pogrom activity, be warned!

  • Jim Young

    This is what you get when you let blacks run wild. They build nothing and destroy everything. Now they are such low lifes they want to dig up a grave. Obama has got to go, its going to be a long year and a quarter till that latent Muslim is out.oc

  • Another rally

    Amazing new CNN poll: 75% of Southern whites describe the flag as a symbol of pride and just 18% think it represents a symbol of racism.

    I bet most of the 18% that see it as “racism” are probably Northerners (Maine) or Westerners (California).

    On the other hand, 75% of blacks see it as “racist” and 11% as a symbol of pride. That is good news too, because 11% of blacks (considering the South has the largest concentration of African-Americans) is still significant. It means Blacks support the Confederate flag more than they support the Republican party. Lol.

    Sometimes I wish what would the old War Between The States historian Shelby Foote would say on the subject if he was still alive, he to was from Memphis.

  • Silver

    It means Blacks support the Confederate flag more than they support the Republican party. Lol.

    Hah, throw that one in the face of Republican outreach artists. (Rand Paul, you listening?)

  • Stephen E Dalton

    Is any of Nathan’s descendants and relatives still around? Why don’t we try to get them in on this?

  • Mr. Mike

    Desecrating the grave of a War Hero is a declaration of war. Wake up America, they won’t stop at Gen. Forrest, after they are done removing every last ‘White’ symbol – they will then remove the White people,…if you let them.

  • Lothar

    We must not allow these miserable wretches to go forward with this insane assault on our Southern, and indeed, American heritage! Regardless of the rantings of so many arrogant, uneducated, hysterical sub-humans impersonating public officials, Gen. Forrest was a great American patriot and hero whose life and legend would make a fantastic movie, if the movie industry wasn’t dominated by America-hating leftist Jews! As another commenter said, “this is pre-pogrom activity”. It absolutely is! These last couple of weeks have been probing attacks to see what kind of resistance they’ll meet. No one can convince me that all this anti-Confederate whining wasn’t pre-planned, which makes me wonder what really happened, if anything, in Charleston. Even if it did happen the way we’re being told, what in hell did the Confederate flag have to do with it?? I have heard almost nothing else about the alleged victims, but endless reports of banning all things Confederate. Now this outrageous scheme to remove the beautiful statue of Gen. Forrest and even disinter him and his wife. The SCV camps in Memphis should start planning defense measures now, if they haven’t already, and not just voicing their concerns to the so-called officials, (who will ignore the public anyway.) I’m thinking armed guards around the clock. I live in Florida, but I have roots in Tennessee and have several ancestors who served under Gen. Forrest during the war. I would even come there myself to do guard duty for as long as I could. There is no reason that we should tolerate half of the BS we have been letting these idiots get away with for over 50 years, and it’s high time we put a stop to it.

    Cemetery ban.

    http://wtop.com/politics/2015/07/house-moves-to-ban-confederate-flag-in-federal-cemeteries/

    WASHINGTON (AP) — The House has voted to ban the display of Confederate flags at historic federal cemeteries in the deep South.

    The low-profile move came Tuesday evening after a brief debate on a measure funding the National Park Service, which maintains 14 national cemeteries, most of which contain graves of Civil War soldiers.

    The proposal by Rep. Jared Huffman, D-Calif., added language to block the Park Service from allowing private groups to decorate the graves of southern soldiers with Confederate flags in states that commemorate Confederate Memorial Day. The cemeteries affected are the Andersonville and Vicksburg cemeteries in Georgia and Mississippi.

    “The American Civil War was fought, in Abraham Lincoln’s words, to ‘save the last best hope of Earth,’” Huffman said in a debate in which he was the only speaker. “We can honor that history without celebrating the Confederate flag and all of the dreadful things that it symbolizes.”

    The flag ban was adopted by a voice vote. The Park Service funding bill is scheduled for a vote on Thursday.
