| Protesters topple Confederate monument on UNC campus |
| 2018-08-21 |
| [The Hill] Protesters on the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill campus on Monday night brought down a controversial monument dedicated to Confederate soldiers, according to media reports. The Daily Tar Heel posted a series of photos and videos that showed protesters surrounding the monument and shrouding it in banners around 8 p.m. The monument was covered in a canvas that read "For a World Without White Supremacy." By about 9:30 p.m., protesters had toppled the monument, and began burying its head in dirt. |

| #10 The left. Spitting on dead men's graves. By the way did anyone in the African subcontinent or all of south America ever figure out what the hell the wheel was? |

| #9 When ever mobs do such things I suggest replacing the monument with an even larger one. Sooner or later they will get the message that proper civilized processes exist for such change. And when will police be accountable for watching a crime and doing nothing? |

| #1 "For a World Without White Supremacy." What has the White Man ever done for us? Besides the aqueduct, I mean. |
