Appeals Court Rules in Favor of Stripping New Orleans of Historic Confederate Statues

Liberals are on a rampage to remove anything of historical significance that does not pass their “politically correct smell test.”

They’ve set their sights on New Orleans, a Southern city rich with Confederate history, and are aiming to remove many of the cities historical Confederate statues – and now an appeals court has cleared the way for them to do just that.

These actions by liberals, stripping the United States of her history, is reminiscent of book burning rituals.

It’s censorship and cultural cleansing.

 A three-judge panel with the U.S. 5th Circuit Court of Appeals in New Orleans ruledon March 6 that the groups trying to block the removal of statues commemorating Confederate leaders had failed to make a proper legal challenge.

The Monumental Task Committee and the Louisiana Landmarks Society argued in its lawsuit that removing the statues would harm the city’s historic legacy — one of Confederate General Robert E. Lee, and two others, Confederate Gen. P.G.T. Beauregard and Confederate President Jefferson Davis.

“Also slated for removal is the Battle of Liberty Place monument near the foot of Iberville Street, although it has been treated separately from the other three because it was previously moved from Canal Street for a federally funded transportation project,” the Times Picayune reported. “It honors a white separatist-led skirmish to overthrow the Reconstructionist leadership of New Orleans.”

The lower court ruling said, in part: “This Court observed that Plaintiffs did not show that their threatened injury outweighs the potential injury that the preliminary injunction may cause the opposing parties, or that a preliminary injunction would serve the public interest.”
