To the editor:
To the Confederate Statue protestors:
Recent published reports in this newspaper have listed non-Chatham County resident protestors as being arrested for a number of offenses including public affray (fistfighting) and illegal possession of weapons.
While respecting our First Amendment rights, this kind of illegal and dangerous behavior must cease. Also, since the majority of arrests seem to be “outside agitators,” I encourage those of you from outside Chatham County to take your energy elsewhere and mind your own business.
Chatham County residents are fully capable of dealing with our own issues without your interference and illegal behavior.
