“The Atlanta march traveled from Woodruff Park to Piedmont Park Sunday, where some damaged the Peace Monument, erected in 1911,” a blog on the Atlanta Journal-Constitution website said. “The sculpture features an angel standing above a Confederate soldier, guiding him to lay down his weapon.”

But the memorial attacked by protesters — some dressed in black and wearing masks — was erected to encourage healing and reconciliation.

Stupid, nasty people in large numbers are becoming a serious threat.

Those doing things like this try to liken themselves to those who pulled down statues of Saddam or Stalin. But none of them wore masks. And none of the mask-wearing vandals lived in an oppressive regime.

It should probably be noted that not even their great-grandparents were around when the Confederacy existed.

I am convinced that most of this nonsense stems from a lack of people even knowing anything about the civil war at all and just going with the crowd and liberal talking points.
