RICHMOND, Va. (AP) — Virginia Gov. Terry McAuliffe says he's changing his mind on the need to remove Confederate statues in the wake of a deadly white nationalist rally in Charlottesville.
McAuliffe released a statement Wednesday saying monuments of Confederate leaders have become "flashpoints for hatred, division and violence." He's encouraging local governments and General Assembly to take down those monuments and put them museums.

Damn Yankee Carpetbagger
This bastard is itching to spark the fire.
Okay yea I get it. The leftist thugs show up and commit violence and we capitulate to make them stop.
Can’t wait until POTUS voter fraud panel gives the state of Virginia an anal examine.
So, what’s McAwful suggesting street thugs and democrat mayors do to Gettysburg and Arlington National Cemetery Monuments?
The Left’s latest Circle Jerk gathers steam.
McAwful should go back to New Jersey and take Gillepsie with him.
Something more important is happening.
This whole statue brouhaha is designed to take the attention away from something much more serious. Perhaps prosecution of the Clintons, Pelosi, Podesta, and many others? This is a distraction from what is really important.
Was it the whites who were throwing bags of urine, soda cans with concrete in them, frozen water bottles, and shooting flames out of aerosol cans at people, McAwful?
No, it was the Antifa and BLM types.
Remember Global Crossing.
NO!
Given that these people will *NEVER* be made accountable for their actions in a court of law, we are losing the war.
Tell you what Pappy. He might be a carpetbagger, but this Yankee will stand for the elimination of the democrat party by any means at hand.
And that includes the southern states rights to be proud of those who fought for the cause they fought for...even though I dont agree with it, I personally will SHOOT the first son-of-a bitch that gets in the way of the rights of the people from there to honor the boys who died in that god awful war.

Yes, complete the Stalinist eradication of our history. After the statues, then it is the books, they will be burned, including the Bible, and then of course it will be the people. Why should we have descendants of white supremacists walking around. Statues, books, monuments, then burn the people - that is the formula of the revolution for the new DNC future.
First comes Saturday, then comes Sunday.
Soviets did all this, as did the Nazis.
Remember the Kulaks.
Release the Kraken!
In Sweden they are melting Viking artifacts.
In Venezuela any hate-or-intolerance speech will get you 25 years. (of course, they can define those as anything they like.)
