This blog grew out of my "Down Da Road I Go Blog," which was originally to be about stuff I was interested in, music and what I was doing. There was so much history and Civil War entries, I spun two more off. Starting Jan. 1, 2012, I will be spinning a Naval blog off this one called "Running the Blockade."

Civil War II-- 596: Confederate Monuments Still An Issue
From the October 8, 2017, Yahoo! News.
** Tribute to Confederate and Union troops in the same Florida park reflect an ongoing war over the monuments.
The Union monument was constructed first.
There have been at least 50 Confederate monuments put up since 1990.
There have been two in Iowa in the last 12 years.
These figures provided by the Southern Poverty Law Center which takes a leading role in the purge of all-things Confederate.
Sorry that they don't work on ways to prevent their people from running afoul of the law.
