Watch: New Orleans Mayor's Speech on Confederate Monuments That's Going Viral

[Orrex]

2. On Facebook yesterday, a proud Confederate veteran here in western PA...

(at least, that's what I assume he was, given his zealot's passion for defending the Confederacy) declared that the people taking down these sick, sad monuments are terrorists.

I told him that I understood why the South want to protect the Confederacy's participation trophies, and then he blocked me.


For the record, I'm not attacking the south nor endorsing the stereotype of the "racist southerner." If anything, my esteemed neighbors north of Pittsburgh are every bit as racist as any caricature you'd care to name.
