It seems there some who are willing to kill others to "protect their heritage"

Death threats prompt company hired to remove Confederate monuments to back out of job

NEW ORLEANS (WGNO) – The Baton Rouge company, H&O Investments, hired to removed four Confederate monuments throughout New Orleans has backed out of its contract after receiving death threats, the company lawyer told WGNO.

On Tuesday Roy Maughan, a lawyer for H&O sent a letter to the City of New Orleans explaining they could no longer work with the City on this project after receiving several phone calls, social media messages and some death threats directed toward H&O’s owner and staff.

The letter goes on to say other area businesses threatened to cancel existing contracts with H&O, as well.

Probably not, but they are willing to threaten.

I was listening to a radio talk show based out of new orleans this morning and they were talking about the statues. They had more than one caller call in and say "I can't believe they are removing the statues, they've been there for hundreds and hundreds of years!"

Lol.
