In the aftermath of the shitstorm created by Trumps tirade Tuesday blaming both sides, the city of Baltimore acted quickly by removing four Confederate statues in the middle of the night.

The Robert E. Lee and Stonewall Jackson Monument was removed from Wyman Park Dell near Johns Hopkins University.

The Confederate Soldiers and Sailors Monument was removed from Mount Royal Avenue.

The Confederate Women’s Monument was removed from West University Parkway.

Also removed was the Roger B. Taney Monument on Mount Vernon Place. Taney was the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court who authored the 1857 Dred Scott ruling that affirmed slavery..

Baltimore’s mayor said she acted swiftly to avoid a repeat in her city of the Charlottesville violence.

I suspect that only a handful of Baltimore’s blacks knew who in the hell Roger Taney was or what in the hell the Dred Scott case was.

The Democratic governors of North Carolina and Virginia now want all Confederate monuments in their states removed.

Watch for the nation’s Confederate statues to fall like a stack of dominoes.
