Years ago, I warned that the American Left’s agenda of cultural genocide was absolutely no different than ISIS or the Taliban in its ferocity, and now we are seeing an unprecedented attack underway on all monuments and symbols of Southern and Confederate heritage.
When the Tom Watson statue was removed from the Georgia State Capitol in 2013, I made a point to travel to Atlanta to stand against it. At the time, I said that I would be back when they came for the other monuments on the Capitol grounds. Last August, I traveled to Ole Miss when Confederate Drive was renamed because I felt it was important to do so. If I had not made other plans, I would have been in Union Springs this weekend to protest the assault on Confederate graves.
This must be what it felt like to live through the Bolshevik Revolution in Russia. An ugly spectacle is unfolding across the South as craven Republican politicians acquiesce to radical demands and venerable and historic monuments are under attack. Hordes of vandals who look like extras from Mad Max:Fury Road are burning Confederate flags.
