Durham, N.C. — Charges for three people who are accused of toppling a Confederate monument in downtown Durham have been dropped, according to their defense attorney.

According to defense attorney Scott Holmes, charges were dropped against Aaron Alexander Caldwell, Myles Spigner and Taylor Cook, citing that probable cause exists, but there was not enough evidence to prove guilt beyond a reasonable doubt.

On Aug. 14, a group of protesters tore the statue of a Confederate soldier down after a white nationalist rally in Charlottesville, Va., ended with one woman dead and almost two dozen injured.

As a Jewess on the US, I can only point out that the number of women who allegedly DATED, but had no sex with, Roy Moore is EXACTLY the same number who accused President Clinton of FORCIBLE RAPE, a FAR more serious offense. Now we know why all REAL Americans put our 2nd Amendment FIRST. Just sayin’!

They’re Communists. Communists are allowed to commit crimes in the US.

Enforcement of the law is now in inverse proportion to the number of diversity points you have.

It’s like the bigger of a “victim” you are the more you can get away with.

Charlotte and Durham and other places in the south are tourist attractions...

people come to see the fine old houses, the gates, the statues, the flowers, parks etc...

tear down the heritage, and goodbye to the tourist industry...

nobody wants to see shanty towns...

I grew up and graduated high school in Durham, when it was a nice place when I left for the Army in 1966. It is a hell-hole now and I’m so glad I left.
