This was the impetus of my original comment. Nobody gave these folks the spotlight they crave and their "protest" went largely unreported. It is in Matt's local news right beside the Piggly Wiggly sale ad.


Yet, there are those that are motivated to not let them die the slow death that they will; they must make it news; thereby, increasing their resolve.

I suppose some would be happy if the President tweeted that these SOBs should not protest the removal of these statues. That would probably stop it. Look how it has worked on stopping the kneeling and removing it from the news cycle.
