    Leftists Promising to 'Desecrate Graves' and Protest During 154th Anniversary of Battle of Gettysburg, Pennsylvania


    During the first days of July, 154 years ago, a great battle was fought in and around Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, during our Civil War.
    Today, as the anniversary approaches, members of the so-called “Antifa” movement are promising to “desecrate” the graves of those who fell in that fight and to mount protests as Americans gather to memorialize the battle.

    Gettysburg has become a great attraction for Americans, many of whom troop there annually to celebrate the anniversary of the Battle of Gettysburg, a conflagration that is often termed the “high tide” of the civil war for turning the war in favor of the federal armies vying to end slavery and save the union.

    But as the 154th-anniversary celebration gears up for the coming month, leftists are making plans for a battle of their own. Only they plan to fight against the country, to “desecrate” history, and to disrupt the thousands of Americans and foreign visitors who intend to honor our past.




    Should members of the “Antifa” movement carry out their plan to desecrate the graves of soldiers who fell at Gettysburg, they will join the Taliban, ISIS, and Turkish Islamists who have launched a campaign to destroy historic sites and desecrate graves of their enemies.

    More public gullibility.

    My prediction is that nothing will happen, nor was ever planned.

    There are a bunch of fake Antifa social media accounts out there spreading false information, and people who are looking to justify their own prejudices and put a face to their irrational fears lap it up.

    I hope your prediction is right, but there is no doubt they are running their mouths about it.

    When you get a chance, pull your head out and look around.

    There will be plenty of American patriots there such as military veterans who will not let such a thing happen. Also, groups like PAFOA (Pa. Firearms Owners Assoc.) are planning to be there. If the anarchists try something, it will not be a walk in the park for them.

    This is essentially the same thing as a snipe hunt:

    "Listen scouts, the snipes are going to raid the camp tonight and try to steal our hot dogs. Scouts, we need half of you to go on a snipe hunt. The rest of us will stay here and guard the hot dogs. If we still have hot dogs by morning and we don't see any snipes, it is proof that we have scared away the evil snipes by our bravery and action!"

    Catching up on it. They've removed a couple of the facebook pages calling for desecration but replaced it with a flag burning.

    I don't believe they will show. Left wing Antifa members are basically cowards. If they think they will meet resistance, they won't do anything.

    I haven't heard yet but, hopefully, Oathkeepers will send some guys out there to keep watch over the cemetery.
