It appears that The South is rising again.
In indignation.
Over a monument placed at the Battle of Lynchburg.
Virginia.
To commemorate the valiant service of 13 YANKEE (!) soldiers who fought there in 1864, 12 of whom were killed or wounded.
O, the affront.
A Northern monument in the heart of Dixie.
See "A Yankee takes a look at monument controversy" in this morning's Roanoke Times.
I don't know.
I think I'd be a little careful if I were to pick that fight.
After all, we'd quickly have to find a home for this if we go down that road.
Personally? I think it serves its purpose where it is.
