North Carolina’s history was under assault last Monday when a group of snowflakes left their safe spaces and demolished a statue of a Confederate soldier in Durham. These self-styled oppressed people rolled up to the monument in a Cadillac limousine with a ladder strapped to the the top of it. Nothing says oppressed like a Cadillac limousine.
Dante Emmanuel Strobino, 35, and Ngoc Loan Tran, 24, both of Durham, were arrested at the Durham County Courthouse, where a woman who climbed the statue was making her first appearance after she was arrested Tuesday. Peter Hull Gilbert, 39, also of Durham, was arrested Wednesday afternoon.1
All three are charged with disorderly conduct by injury to a statue and damage to real property, which are both misdemeanors, and participation in a riot with property damage in excess of $1,500 and inciting others to riot where property damage exceeds $1,500, which are both felonies
A couple of these punks are members of the World Workers Party, which I assume is an offshoot of the defunct IWW. Here is a quote from a wannabe revolutionary:
"There's revolutions taking place all across the country right now, and those revolutions won't be stopped," Thompson said after her court hearing.1
"We are following a historical legacy of standing up to the powers that be, to these racist, fascist systems, and we're on the right side of history," Tran said. "We're not going to let the police or this jail intimidate us.
These kids are profoundly stupid. They are the ones who are acting like fascists and racists. Maybe these punks should look into the fate of the Wobblies. However, that would require opening a history book.
