I hate it, but I knew it would happen.
That Sheriff needs to be recalled for not "protecting and defending".
I warned Southerners that this type of stupidity would spread to the South along with the economic growth.

He was "Protecting and Defending" according to his interpretation of the law.

Silly me! I thought the Supreme Court got to do that. [B)]
Even if the subject matter is offensive (not saying it is) the bronze was a museum quality sculpture.
The vandals should make restitution.
It won't be inexpensive to restore.
A fun afternoon in the park? Good grief.
and sheriff Joe is going to jail for upholding the law as written [V]
As law and the spirit of the law, to keep those who do not belong OUT.
Don't have a ticket, you don't get to come to the show.
In response to the statue in Durham being torn down, Democratic North Carolina Gov. Roy Cooper tweeted: "The racism and deadly violence in Charlottesville is unacceptable but there is a better way to remove these monuments."
also, I find it strange that the police watched and pawned off their responsibility by saying it was in the county and they were city police.
A) then WTH were you doing there in the first place?
how rich.
I'd give anything if they would drop them off and I'd put them in the front yard.
CWII is looking more likely everyday, ain't it?
So if I go into a Music store and destroy all the Gangsta rap crap I am good to go right? [}:)]
Are you in Durham County? [:D]
Vandalism
Destruction of Public Property
Violent Mob Action
He should be locked up with the rest of the worthless wastes of flesh.

A fun afternoon in the park? Good grief.
Amen
