I like what Charles Barkley stated"


I’m 54 years old,” Barkley said. “I’ve never thought about those statues a day in my life. I think if you ask most black people, to be honest, they ain’t thought a day in their life about those stupid statues.

I did see and read where there is a petition being started (already has 20,000 signatures)in Portsmouth, VA to replace the Confederate Statue with a statue of Missy Elliot.

Of all the things that the City government could/should spend money on, removing a statue and replacing it with another is soooooooo low on the pole. I wanted to work for the City of Portsmouth Police Dept for years due to the action, crime,etc..
Then after a while it was even to screwed up for me.

Apparently, "they" have vandalized a monument to Columbus in Baltimore.

If they want to find, prosecute, and hang that individual from a tree on the capitol lawn, I'm good with it. Its time for this filth to go...

Fun is over, it is clear the radical left has declared war on white people as the bringers of everything evil in society.

You are now a hate group and need to be hunted down, tried, and convicted.

That is absolutely horrible. I don't care what this guy believes, he he wants to blame CC for rape and slavery, fine, start a blog. Don't go destroying other people's property, that's not protest, it's a crime. If you want to trash a 200+ year obelisk to speak against modern day income disparity, fine, go buy one of your own a smash it.

Charlottesville City Council Meeting Erupts Over White Nationalist Rally

by Tim Stelloh

A city council meeting in Charlottesville, Virginia, erupted in fury on Monday night over the authorities’ handling of a white nationalist rally that left a woman dead and 19 people injured.

The agenda for the meeting — the first since the Aug. 12 rally — did not mention the rally or its aftermath. But angry residents and protesters took over the meeting, hurling expletives at the officials and dressing them down.

At one point, the mayor, vice mayor and three council members fled and two people holding a sign that said “blood on your hands” jumped on the chamber’s dais, NBC affiliate WVIR reported.

Police officers flooded the room, the station reported, and three people were detained and removed from the chambers.

Vice-mayor Wes Bellamy said they would later be released, according to WVIR.

The council re-convened and listened for more than three hours of tongue-lashing from people who said the authorities did nothing to protect them from white nationalists.

The council ultimately voted unanimously in favor of expediting the removal and relocation of both the Robert E. Lee and Stonewall Jackson monuments in the city, Charlottesville City Clerk Paige Rice said. The council also voted unanimously to drape the statues "in recognition of the city's mourning," Rice said.

In a live feed broadcast by The Daily Progress, a local newspaper, people said that rally attendees attacked them, spit on them and called them racial epithets.

And the police, one unidentified woman said, “did nothing.”

“You all let this city down,” she said. “It’s absolutely disgraceful.”

As many of them spoke, the council members listened quietly.

Charlottesville Police Chief Al Thomas, who was not at the meeting, has previously said that he has “regrets” over how local law enforcement handled the rally and counter-protests. But Thomas has also blamed rally attendees for not following plans that had been agreed upon before the rally, and he said that violent confrontations were the result of "mutually engaged attacks" fueled by "mutually combative individuals."

Asked how 20-year-old James Alex Fields allegedly drove down what was supposed to have been a blocked-off street, killing 32-year-old counter-protester Heather Heyer and injuring 19 others, Thomas said: “I’m not sure.”

Fields, who has been charged with second-degree murder and other crimes, has been ordered held without bond pending an Aug. 25 hearing.

These fucking assholes are with the communists. They refuse to hold any of them accountable for their actions. May I suggest to them, if they don't get a handle on this now, their kind will ultimately be the cause of their demise.

I was in Charlottesville yesterday afternoon. Get away from the University cesspool, and there are some nice people. I discovered the Saunders-Monticello Trail , did not know it existed, even after many years of going to Charlottesville.

The Antifa (and universities) are the real Nazi.

Dinesh D'Souza has a new book, "The Big Lie" that describes all these tactics and strategies to a "t."

I will read D'Souza's book. I think he understands Alinsky and his shaping of the Democrat Party into what it is now better than anyone.

I just downloaded it to my Kindle and will tear into it this afternoon. (Gotta take it easy after all of that eclipse viewing, chip munching, and wine drinking yesterday.)

Interesting video on riot control.

Very good video.

Indeed, it is a very good video. The folks who really need to see it never will.

Here are a few tidbits to consider from the Virginia statutes:

15.2-1812.1. Action for damage to memorials for war veterans.

A. If any monument, marker or memorial for war veterans as designated in §§ 15.2-1812 and 18.2-137 is violated or encroached upon, an action for the recovery of damages may be commenced by the following:

1. For a publicly owned monument, marker or memorial, by the attorney for the locality in which it is located; or, if no such action has commenced within sixty days following any such violation or encroachment, by any person having an interest in the matter; and

2. For a privately owned monument, marker or memorial, by the private organization, society or museum that owns it or any member of such organization, society or museum.

Damages may be awarded in such amounts as necessary for the purposes of rebuilding, repairing, preserving and restoring such memorials or monuments to preencroachment condition. Damages other than those litigation costs recovered from any such action shall be used exclusively for said purposes.

B. Punitive damages may be recovered for reckless, willful or wanton conduct resulting in the defacement of, malicious destruction of, unlawful removal of, or placement of improper markings, monuments or statues on memorials for war veterans.

C. The party who initiates and prevails in an action authorized by this section shall be entitled to an award of the cost of the litigation, including reasonable attorney's fees. The provisions of this section shall not be construed to limit the rights of any person, organization, society, or museum to pursue any additional civil remedy otherwise allowed by law.


15.2-1812. Memorials for war veterans.

A locality may, within the geographical limits of the locality, authorize and permit the erection of monuments or memorials for any war or conflict, or for any engagement of such war or conflict, to include the following monuments or memorials: Algonquin (1622), French and Indian (1754-1763), Revolutionary (1775-1783), War of 1812 (1812-1815), Mexican (1846-1848), Confederate or Union monuments or memorials of the War Between the States (1861-1865), Spanish-American (1898), World War I (1917-1918), World War II (1941-1945), Korean (1950-1953), Vietnam (1965-1973), Operation Desert Shield-Desert Storm (1990-1991), Global War on Terrorism (2000- ), Operation Enduring Freedom (2001- ), and Operation Iraqi Freedom (2003- ). If such are erected, it shall be unlawful for the authorities of the locality, or any other person or persons, to disturb or interfere with any monuments or memorials so erected, or to prevent its citizens from taking proper measures and exercising proper means for the protection, preservation and care of same. For purposes of this section, "disturb or interfere with" includes removal of, damaging or defacing monuments or memorials, or, in the case of the War Between the States, the placement of Union markings or monuments on previously designated Confederate memorials or the placement of Confederate markings or monuments on previously designated Union memorials.

The governing body may appropriate a sufficient sum of money out of its funds to complete or aid in the erection of monuments or memorials to the veterans of such wars. The governing body may also make a special levy to raise the money necessary for the erection or completion of any such monuments or memorials, or to supplement the funds already raised or that may be raised by private persons, Veterans of Foreign Wars, the American Legion or other organizations. It may also appropriate, out of any funds of such locality, a sufficient sum of money to permanently care for, protect and preserve such monuments or memorials and may expend the same thereafter as other funds are expended.


18.2-137. Injuring, etc., any property, monument, etc.

A. If any person unlawfully destroys, defaces, damages or removes without the intent to steal any property, real or personal, not his own, or breaks down, destroys, defaces, damages or removes without the intent to steal, any monument or memorial for war veterans described in § 15.2-1812, any monument erected for the purpose of marking the site of any engagement fought during the War between the States, or for the purpose of designating the boundaries of any city, town, tract of land, or any tree marked for that purpose, he shall be guilty of a Class 3 misdemeanor; provided that the court may, in its discretion, dismiss the charge if the locality or organization responsible for maintaining the injured property, monument, or memorial files a written affidavit with the court stating it has received full payment for the injury.

B. If any person intentionally causes such injury, he shall be guilty of (i) a Class 1 misdemeanor if the value of or damage to the property, memorial or monument is less than $1,000 or (ii) a Class 6 felony if the value of or damage to the property, memorial or monument is $1,000 or more. The amount of loss caused by the destruction, defacing, damage or removal of such property, memorial or monument may be established by proof of the fair market cost of repair or fair market replacement value. Upon conviction, the court may order that the defendant pay restitution.

Charlottesville Police Chief Alfred Thomas announced Monday that he is retiring, which the city said is “effective immediately,” following criticism surrounding the department’s handling of a deadly white supremacist rally in the Virginia town this past summer.

An investigation by former U.S. Attorney Timothy J. Heaphy, who was hired by the city of Charlottesville to review the city’s response to the rally, found that “planning and coordination breakdowns” by authorities led to “disastrous results.”

According to the report released earlier this month, Thomas — as brawling first broke out at the rally — said: “ Let them fight, it will make it easier to declare an unlawful assembly.”

Thomas said he didn’t recall making that statement, which was cited in accounts by two other police employees, though he confirmed he waited to “see how things played out” before declaring an unlawful assembly, the report stated.

The report also said Thomas initially tried to limit access to certain information by directing subordinates not to answer certain questions. And it said Thomas and other Charlottesville police command staff deleted text messages relevant to the investigation — which Thomas disputed through an attorney.
