You Take Your Victories Where You Can Find Them. . . .

Posted in Memory by Andy Hall on July 30, 2012

The white nationalist  League of the South is taking a bold stand against anti-racism (?), one men’s room graffito at a time.

Readers will recall that the LoS recently removed from its website a long-standing statement formally denouncing racism. LoS President J. Michael Hill sees this latest public potty protest as a harbinger of grander glories: “things are turning in our favor.” No word yet if “things are turning” over the top of the roll, or around the back side of it.

Honestly, I can’t think of a better venue for the League of the South’s “message.”

At this rate, can it be long before they start bravely flagging empty office buildings at night? Oh, wait. . . .

    I especially enjoyed the following comment on the comment about the men’s stall door:

    “Momentum certainly seems to be turning!! Keep pushing!”

    I’m sure this came to mind while our fearless correspondent was there sitting …

      This story just begs for a clever “wide stance” joke.
