The Confederate Keepers President Michael Madden:
The Confederate Keepers will not be at the rally on Aug. 12th. We do not agree with Jason using our heritage to spread his hate. We are about love and spreading education on the war for southern independence. He is using Gen Robert E Lee's monument at LEE PARK because he knows he will get media attention. Yes he has the right to free speech, but that doesn't mean our southern heritage groups need to stand next to a known hate group. I highly condemn this rally as should everyone else. I've watched Jason for some time now and he talks about the statues maybe two mins then bashes other races. People of all races fought for the south. That statue and the Confederate battle flag is not just white heritage but black, Indian, Spanish, etc.... I've had a few debates on this subject. I agree move it out of Lee Park because hate has no room in our heritage. My ancestors fought beside blacks, Spanish, Indians, etc.... They fought for a free south, smaller government and states rights. To the ones showing up, I wonder what you're gonna do when he turns his subject to hate on your race? This rally shouldn't happen!
