We cannot compare the history of one country to another to claim mirroring events. Banning seems to have been kick started with HBO, NASCAR, FOX (Cops),A&E (Live PD) and random civilians demanding southern historic statues be destroyed deciding to ban items in their agendas. Fine, it is not our government making those calls. It appears that these actions are more to appease the masses and media than to suddenly wake up one morning and discover we have been wrong. No one is suddenly not bigoted. Of course the direction is right but the motive is very questionable. Historically the reason the whites gave up on segregation in southern cities is blacks boycotting businesses, not sudden loves for all races. It was the beginning of the end as proven by Alabama governor George Wallace and once the cash registers ground to a halt the whites capitulated. Sadly, we are in an era when reputation and character destruction via social media is every minute. One wrong word and you're smeared by every media outlet in the free world and not free world. Should this banning extend to music like Charley Daniel's song "The Souths Gonna Do It Again" and Lenard Skywards lyric "In Birmingham we loved a governor. Now we all did what we could do?" America, not know for handling or solving social issues could be approaching a wave of backfire. Last thought, don't go too far in degrading our police force.
