In the dead of night on October 9, our Confederate memorial statue here in the Bitty Burg was taken down. Where it is being stored is unknown, as it is eventual disposition. I have to wonder what scrap bronze is selling for these days.
Many here are *very* angry, and many say this has set back race relations many years. Whether the later group is right or not remains to be seen. I suspect that the next moves by the BLM crowd will tell us the answer to that. Local news stories say they want to move on to building a “just” community, which sounds like a code phrase for things that will not be good for us as a community in the long run.
… and they will continue to win as the "good guys" get "very" angry and do absolutely nothing.
Revenge is a dish best served cold. Acting in anger leads to mistakes, mistakes lead to losing.
