Removal of Confederate monuments in Georgia leads to boycott of crane companies




Removal of Confederate monuments in Georgia leads to boycott of crane companies

Tanasia Kenney
A handful of Confederate monuments have come down across Georgia. Now, a local group plans to boycott the crane companies that removed them.
“These companies have shown the sacrifices these veterans made is of no value when compared to a quick buck,” leaders with the Georgia Division of the Sons of Confederate Veterans said in a release announcing the boycott Sunday. “All is for sale. They have sold themselves out to these liberal municipalities and county governments.”
The group has called on its 33,000-plus members to quit doing business with the two companies hired to remove monuments in Athens-Clarke, Dekalb, Henry and Rockdale counties.
Roper & Sons has relocated statues in Rockdale and Henry counties, and was tapped by Covington city officials in July to remove a Confederate memorial statue from the city square, according to the Henry Herald. Superior Rigging & Erecting Company of Atlanta was hired by Dekalb and Athens-Clarke counties to remove monuments there, the newspaper reported.
The Sons of Confederate Veterans criticized the companies for dismantling “Georgia’s Veterans Monument in the dark of night” and discouraged contractors, vendors, construction professionals and others from using their services in the future.

“This Boycott is no reflection on the hard-working men and women who are the operators, riggers, shop mechanics and drivers for these crane companies,” the group wrote, saying it wouldn’t hold those employees liable for “the greedy actions of their bosses.”
“It is unfortunate that these crane companies have placed their employees in this position just to make a fast buck,” the group said. “Many of these monuments were erected by mothers, wives, sisters and daughters to honor their lost loved ones. Many of these fine employees are veterans themselves or descendants of veterans.”
At least four confederate monuments have been removed in Georgia amid renewed scrutiny over Civil War-era symbols sparked by the in-custody death of George Floyd, an unarmed Black man killed on Memorial Day by Minneapolis police when an officer knelt on his neck for about eight minutes as three other officers failed to intervene.
Several monuments are still standing, however, with the Peach State having more Confederate statues and memorials on public property than any other state, according to the Southern Poverty Law Center. Georgia is also home to Stone Mountain, the nation’s largest Confederate monument.
The state leads with 114 memorials honoring Confederate soldiers, followed by Virginia with 110 and North Carolina with 97, the organization said.
It’s unclear how much support the Sons of Confederate Veterans boycott has gained, however, comments left on the group’s Facebook page suggest traction may be slow.
“Boycotting is a weak but feel good/virtue signaling effort that — unless done be millions of people across America or the majority of the clientele of a business, has zero effect,” one user commented.
“I’m more concerned about the politicians who voted for removal,” wrote another. “Serious discussion is needed with them.”

Amazon driver hits 73-year-old man in the face after being 'asked to wear a face mask' while delivering packages

An Amazon delivery driver strikes a 73-year-old man in the face after he asks him to wear a mask before entering a building: Twitter
An Amazon delivery driver allegedly assaulted a 73-year-old man that asked him to put on a face mask before entering a condo.
The alleged assault was caught on surveillance video. Ray Breslin, who asked the driver to stay out of the building until he had a mask, returns from their discussion wearing a mask.
The driver then shoves a phone in Mr Breslin's face and holds it there for a moment before slamming it into Mr Breslin's head.
The assault occurred on 4 Aug, but the driver has yet to be charged.

"I was mortified" Mr Breslin told local broadcaster WSVN. "I just couldn't believe it."
The Miami Beach resident said he saw the delivery driver enter the building without a mask. When the driver tried to go further into the building, Mr Breslin stopped him and said he couldn't go further without wearing a mask.
"I open the door, I said, 'Excuse me, you have to have a mask on.' He said 'I'm just delivering.' I said 'It doesn't matter. You wanna come in the building, you need to have a mask on,'" Mr Breslin said.
He said the man attempted to enter anyway.
"All of a sudden, he just puts his foot at the door like that. He's not gonna let me close the door," Mr Breslin said. "I pushed his foot out of the way and closed the door."
Mr Breslin said he took the packages from the driver and left them near the building's front door. He also took a photo of the driver's vehicle and his license plate.
The driver went back to his vehicle to get a mask and returned to finish the delivery. It was at that point that their confrontation escalated.
"Then he came back with a mask on, and I thought 'Ok, not so bad' and I open the door and I let them in," Mr Breslin said. "He brings his phone up like that and smashes me in the face."
Mr Breslin pointed out to the driver that the entire encounter had been caught on surveillance video, which prompted the man to flee the scene with the packages.
"I was like - what are you kidding me? I said 'there's a camera right there that just shot all this' and he looked up, put his head down, took his packages and walked right out the door," Mr Breslin said to NBC 2.
Mr Breslin said the driver claimed he hit him because Mr Breslin hit him first. However, the footage does not show Mr Breslin striking the driver at any point.
The 73-year-old condo president was not injured in the encounter, but he said he was shaken up by the incident.
Mr Breslin's lawyer, Michael Grieco, said the the incident was "felony battery," explaining that any time someone hit someone over the age of 65, it was considered a felony.
Mr Breslin filed a victim's report with the local police, but the driver has yet to be identified or charged.
"The fact that an Amazon driver, any delivery driver, would contemplate getting violent with somebody in a situation like that is beyond me," Mr Grieco said.
Amazon said it sent an apology letter to Mr Breslin. The driver worked for a company that contracted with Amazon to deliver its packages.
According to Amazon, the driver no longer works for the delivery company.
"This does not reflect the high standards we have for delivery service partners," Amazon said in a statement. "We are addressing the incident with the delivery service partner and can confirm that this individual is no longer delivering Amazon packages. We are in touch with the customer to make things right."
Miami-Dade county is currently under a county-wide mask mandate, requiring everyone to wear a mask while in public or face a potential $100 fine.
Mr Breslin said he was simply trying to follow the law.
"I was being firm. I wasn't being nasty. I wasn't going to let him in the building without a mask," Mr Breslin said. "Plain and simple."

Love and Respect this flag or get the hell out !!!!!!!

Ann Coulter sparks outrage after tweeting that she wants accused Kenosha shooter for president




Ann Coulter sparks outrage after tweeting that she wants accused Kenosha shooter for president

Ann Coulter said
Conservative commentator Ann Coulter tweeted support for accused Wisconsin shooter Kyle Rittenhouse, saying "I want him as my president".

Twitter removed Ms Coulter's statements for violating the platform's rules after users took offence at her opinion, made in response to a user saying they wanted the teenager as a "bodyguard".
Mr Rittenhouse, 17, was charged with first-degree intentional homicide in connection with shootings that left two people dead during the violence in Kenosha on Tuesday night.
Analysis of the video from the scene of Tuesday night's shootings showed a man pursued by a group before an unknown gunman fires nearby. He turns in the direction of the shots. As someone else lunges towards him, the teenager appears to fire four times.

The second shooting occurs after the man trips and falls while leaving the scene of the first shooting. As three people rush toward him, he appears to fire four times while at least 16 other gunshots sound out around him.
This timeline of events has left some observers to question whether the man was acting in self-defence, with Fox News host Tucker Carlson also being criticised for considering that scenario.
"A court will decide whether what you just saw qualifies as self-defence. As of tonight, we really don't have more details," Mr Carlson said on his show Wednesday. "We do know why it all happened, though. Kenosha is devolved into anarchy because the authorities in charge of the city abandoned it. People in charge, from the governor of Wisconsin on down, refused to enforce the law. They stood back and they watched Kenosha burn.
"So are we really surprised that looting and arson accelerated to murder? How shocked are we that 17-year-olds with rifles decided they had to maintain order when no one else would? Everyone could see what was happening in Kenosha. It was getting crazier by the hour," he continued.
