Civil War II-- 469: Destroyers of Confederate Statues Compared to Nazis

From the May 22 and 23, 2017, Google Alerts for Confederate.

**  Mississippi Representative Karl Oliver Calls for Lynching of Destroyers of Confederate Statues.  (Loss)   I don't like the destroyers either, but comments like this don't help the cause.  Wish he hadn't have said it.  This part of what he said was completely unacceptable, and, of course, raises the red flag regarding the lynching of Blacks during the 100 years after the war.  A very sad chapter in our country's history.

 However, he did make a point of comparing the sterilization of history as taking place now to the Nazis destroying books and rewriting history.  (Win) This is a REAL good point.

Of course, comparing the Confederacy to the Nazis is a favorite tactic of the Anti-Confederates, so this is an interesting take on the situation.  Perhaps they are the real Nazis?  Or, as they like to say, Neo-Confederates...Oops, Neo-Nazis.

Are we seeing the rebirth of the Nazis?
