Made me Smile !


This made me smile  --

A man from Rhode Island
Wayne Rowe

Visits Magnolia Cemetery Cemetery in Charleston S.C.
 Sees A remembrance token placed in the Cemetery.

Placed by Wanda Jean King


And recognizes it as my work !

Then sends me pictures
 

 and this Comment --

"Today at Magnolia Cemetery, I was looking at H. L. Hunley's third crew's graves when I noticed several mementos left at the base of each headstone. Then it struck me that these appear to be the fine work of my friend David Tatum Jr. Nice job David."


It's nice when your work is recognized, appreciated and acknowledged !

I guess I'll keep making them !

                                                  § 15.2-1812. Memorials for war veterans.

A locality may, within the geographical limits of the locality, authorize and permit the erection of monuments or memorials for any war or conflict, or for any engagement of such war or conflict, to include the following monuments or memorials: Algonquin (1622), French and Indian (1754-1763), Revolutionary (1775-1783), War of 1812 (1812-1815), Mexican (1846-1848), Confederate or Union monuments or memorials of the War Between the States (1861-1865), Spanish-American (1898), World War I (1917-1918), World War II (1941-1945), Korean (1950-1953), Vietnam (1965-1973), Operation Desert Shield-Desert Storm (1990-1991), Global War on Terrorism (2000- ), Operation Enduring Freedom (2001- ), and Operation Iraqi Freedom (2003- ).

                                       I see legal action on the Horizon !

 No matter how it turns out it's gonna be an expensive mess !
Time and money that could be used better elsewhere.

Liars and Racist Laid Bare - OH MY !






Liar !
Kristin Szakos



I guess Kristin was making the Facts fit her agenda.
The removal of the Lee statue in Charlottesville.
Image result for Robert Edward Lee Sculpture

Turns out it's not the KKK but the

The Richmond Light Infantry Blues




Local Historians had informed Kristin of her error !




I found this at Kristin's F/B page seems appropriate --


That shoe fits rather well !


Racist !
Wes Bellamy



His Tweets speak for themselves.










Pray for the Citizens of Charlottesville.


They need all the help they can get !

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Now Then !

Had Joe Smith a White Supremacist been photographed at a VA Flagger event.

Levin, Hall, Simpson and their Peanut gallery's would be on it like White on Rice ! 

But seeing as how the racist and liars in C-Ville have the same Anti Confederate agenda,

You'll not hear a peep out of them.
