Video from Canal Street and the Jeff Davis Statue of Doom, about 2 hours ago. I see a small mob of secesh diehards, including one exceedingly well fed chap in a confederate uniform (very unlikely in real life, especially toward the end). There are rather more anti-cons and a hell of a lot of journalists and cops.
The Canal Street neutral ground is anything but right now. Jefferson Davis statue expected to come down overnight, and emotions are high. pic.twitter.com/N3FFesuni3
