Civil War II-- 479: The Problem With LSU Tigers?

From the June 4, 2017, Google Alerts for Confederate.

**  Verify:  Are the LSU Tigers named after a notoriously violent group of Confederate soldiers.  (Yes, they were)  Looks like LSU will have to find a new nickname unless they are willing to incur black wrath.  How do you like the remark "notoriously violent?"

**  Arizona's black leaders want all Confederate monuments removed.  (Loss)  No big surprise here.  We're talking major racists and desecrators.

**  Confederate statues remain part of Ohio Civil War landmark.  (Johnson's Island)  (Win)  The tone of the article seems to be to remove it.  Johnson's Island was the site of a Civil war prison where 267 Confederate officers and soldiers died there.  It is a 19-foot statue dedicated in 1910.
