My Turn, R. Kevin Stone: NC Division Sons of Confederate Veterans on Faith parade

(Salisbury Post) The North Carolina Division Sons of Confederate Veterans (SCV) participated in the Faith 4th Parade again this year, as we have for decades. The parade was a great event. If you were present, you would know that those in attendance loved us, and we loved them back. The SCV is pleased with the most recent support from the Faith community.
Did you know that Southern families originally started the Faith 4th celebrations in honor of Confederate veterans? Yet, after the event this year, a small hate group started a letter-writing campaign to exclude Southern Heritage groups like ours from participating in the Faith 4th event.
The “woke mob” may disagree with us and think we’re simple-minded rednecks or, in some other way, less deserving than themselves. However, that shouldn’t permit them to exclude us from participating in the community or keeping our cultural history. In truth, their actions speak a far greater reality than their false claims of diversity and inclusion ever will…Read the rest

Racist anti-Monument Smear Screened in Edenton, NC

(anti-Southern Bigots love to whoop out this piece of trash to fire up their constituency. Can’t believe they included a photo of the packed fouse of 33 to see it on the tiny screens. Several of those were reported to have out of state plates on their cars. – DD)

Asheboro city leaders push to have confederate statue moved
The statue was erected in 1911 and Asheboro City leaders say the monument is offensive to a significant number of citizens

(WFMY) The Asheboro (NC) City Council has voted in support of moving a confederate statue on the historic Randolph County Courthouse property.
The statue, erected in 1911 by the United Daughters of the Confederacy, sits in front of the historic courthouse and is dedicated to Randolph County confederate soldiers. Some county business is still handled in the building, including county commission meetings.
On September 8, 2022, the Asheboro City Council passed a resolution supporting moving the statue. The Asheboro/Randolph County chapter of the NAACP brought the idea to the city council.
"We have been working for years to try to get this monument moved," said Clyde Foust, the president of the Asheboro/Randolph County chapter of the NAACP. "The operative word there is moved, not destroyed."
The statue is on Randolph County property but the resolution states the city will offer…Read the rest

Democrat-run tourist town in North Carolina sees violent crime spike as police dwindle: ‘Perfect storm’
Asheville, North Carolina, has seen a 31% surge in violent crime within five years

(FOX) Asheville, North Carolina — Multiple local law enforcement sources who spoke to Fox News Digital laid partial blame for the deteriorating condition of a North Carolina tourist town on the city’s liberal political leadership and on left-wing activists who undermine police.
"I think what you’re seeing in Asheville right now is a culmination of the last several years of pulling police back and not letting them do their jobs like they’re able to do," former Buncombe County Sheriff Van Duncan told Fox News Digital in a phone interview.
Asheville, a city of approximately 90,000 people nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Buncombe County, North Carolina, has seen a 31% surge in violent crime per 100,000 people from 2016 to 2020, according to statistics released in the spring. Asheville’s growth in violent crime is nearly double that of the national average and ranks among the highest in North Carolina, where violent crime has increased 13% statewide.
Asheville has so far seen 11 homicides in 2022, setting it on pace to surpass the homicide rate of 2021 and 2020. Rates of homelessness have increased 21% since…Read the rest

(It bothers them so much yet they always seem to tell only one descendant about it. And that descendant always just so happens to be a revisionist Libtard. Surprise! -DD)

Edenton has long history with Monument

(Chowan Herald) As local leaders continue to cement a path forward for relocating Edenton’s Confederate monument – the object’s long history and questions of both its ownership and final resting place still hang over the community.
The story of the monument began in 1901 when Edenton’s Bell Battery Chapter of the United Daughters of the Confederacy initiated fundraising.
By 1904 the cornerstone and shaft were laid on the green of the 1767 Courthouse. Five years later, the bronze soldier statue was unveiled at a public ceremony. The total cost was $3,000.
Edenton native Susan Inglis said her aunt, Marion Drane, was one of the little girls that pulled the string to reveal the soldier.
Drane later said – during the monument’s relocation in 1961 – that it should be taken down entirely. Drane claimed that clinging to the “Lost Cause” of the Confederacy had become “inappropriate,” according to Inglis…Read the rest
