The left has begun a ferocious war against inanimate objects – perhaps the only opponent they can actually defeat. The war on statues is growing and likely to get far out-of-hand.

The alt-left: Antifa, Black Lives Matter and a mix of other groups have joined together to face off against their one true enemy – statues that in any way relate to the civil war.

From New Orleans to North Carolina and Virginia, the left is forcing local governments – or in some cases, illegally removing them on their own – to remove monuments that serve as a reminder of a dark time in American history. They believe that removing the statues will erase the bloodshed, horrific acts of war and other atrocities and misdeeds committed in the brother-on-brother conflict fought over slavery and the rights of states to govern themselves. They believe that it will erase that period in American history when men believed that other men (including white men) could be property.

This is their cause of the moment, their raison d’etre, their identity – their war on statues.
