Charles Barkley did a great interview explaining as a black man growing up in Alabama he never once thought about any of the statues
Yeah, I saw that one. It was a great interview.
My local news ran a piece where they interviewed people visiting Gettysburg to see if they supported the removal of confederate statues. Of the five people they interviewed on the air, 4 were against removal and one was for it.
Yet, I haven't seen ANY of that. Not surprised it was local news.
The local news report wouldn't go national because nobody was ranting and raving and losing their mind. It was simply regular people expressing their personal opinion in a rational way. Even the lady who thought they should be removed made her thoughts known clearly without resorting to rhetoric and BS.
