“We can’t even have a Civil War themed event”
I’ve never been to a Civil War reenactment before, but I hear that they are done as historically accurate as possible, as a history lesson, historical theater.
These are now verboten.
The raging marauders have now frightened people into cancelling a Civil War reenactment for fear that the presence of Confederate symbols would be too triggering for some, resulting in another incident such as Charlottesville.
…
In a statement, the city council announced that the event scheduled from August 25 to August 27 has now been cancelled “for the safety of our residents, visitors and reenactors,” according to FOX5DC.
“Recent events have ignited passions in this country surrounding the Civil War and the symbols representing it. The City of Manassas is saddened by these events and abhors the violence happening around the country,” the statement read.
