It never stops.....


Dear Mr. Attorney
http://www.foxnews.com/us/2013/05/15/attorney-in-fight-to-move-105-year-old-confederate-soldier-statue-away-from/

I caught your "act" on Foxnews.....seems you moved from Noo Yawk to Virginia and like an unwelcomed, rude houseguest you want to tell the folks down there how they should live and how they should be decorating their ancestral homes.

A piece of advice...sit down, shut up and mind your manners. The folks down there hold their history dear and if you don't understand it then ask them nicely and they will be, I'm sure, more than happy to explain it to you.

During my 6 decades of existence I have NEVER in my life seen a Southerner get off the bus in New York city, march over to Union Square, and demand that the statue of General Sherman be removed. Unhappily, I have seen too many northerners go south and make such demands on their Southern countrymen. You and your kind are an embarrassment to me and others like me who live in the north.

Stop trying to get free advertising for your law practice or looking for your 15 minutes of fame. The statue is going to stay. If there is anything that should go, IT'S YOU!
