Flag burning, as distasteful as it is, is a common form of protest. The desecration of graves, on the other hand, does not fall within an acceptable form of protest.....and should absolutely not be allowed. That this group is planning to desecrate graves, literally turns my stomach.

Wouldn't surprise me if this was another prank by a troll looking to get under the skin and make fun of Confederate groups.

Armed protesters at Hermann Park defend Sam Houston statue
Carrying Texas and Confederate flags, participants seem concerned that the Sam Houston statue at the park might be removed since the historical figure owned slaves.

Too bad their not having a reenactment, use the protestors for bayonet practice.

They do not want a re-enactment, the last time they last a war there, even if they are too damned stupid to realize it.

During the Civil War the rebels displayed 'heart', as Marines did at the Chosin Reservoir and other notable battles

AntiFa protesters? It's The Sons of Confederate Veterans and a group called Real 3% Risen that requested special permits to express their First Amendment right. Something tells me these Confederate groups are getting punked just like they did in Texas after the social media hoax that claimed an anti-Confederate demonstration demanding the removal of the Sam Houston statue. Hahaha!
