Who are Hank and Rose Sanders to violate the civil rights of everyone in Selma over what types of statues will be permitted or where they will be placed?
More important is how are they getting away with violating the civil rights of the Friends of Forrest because they do not agree with what Gen. Nathan Bedford Forrest did or did not stand for? If everything they said about Forrest were true (which it is not), that still does not give them the right to take it upon themselves to disavow everyone else's civil rights because they do not agree with their opinions.
A case in point: I did not agree with making the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. a national hero. However, you do not see me or others protesting like Rose Sanders.
The bottom line is Sanders and those like her do not get a free pass to bypass the U.S. Constitution and violate the civil rights of those they oppose. This is still America, where whites in Selma are supposed to have the same constitutional rights as blacks. The U.S. government needs to remind Hank and Rose Sanders of this fact.
