Title 19 Waiver: Fill & Download for Free

He is sending the very clear message that the Republican Party is the home of modern-day Confederate sympathizers and apologists. But, then again, we already knew that.The more proximal issue here, however, is not simply the steadfast refusal of much of the White South to repudiate the war their forebears fought on behalf of slavery and White Supremacy; it is the continuing controversy over the removal of the huge number of Confederate monuments erected in southern public spaces over the course of the 20th century.The Republican-controlled state legislature in Tennessee passed a law in 2013 to prevent cities from—Memphis and Nashville—from removing these offensive statues. [1](1) No statue, monument, memorial, nameplate, or plaque which has been erected for, or named or dedicated in honor of a military conflict that is identified in a list of conflicts in which the U.S. has participated and is located on public property, may be relocated, removed, altered, renamed, rededicated, or otherwise disturbed; and(2) No statue, monument, memorial, nameplate, plaque, historic flag display, school, street, bridge, building, park, preserve, or reserve which has been erected for, or named or dedicated in honor of, any historical military figure, historical military event, military organization, or military unit, and is located on public property, may be renamed or rededicated.In order to remove such monuments, a city would have to obtain a waiver from the Tennessee Historical Commission, whose members are appointed by the governor. But in order to make the granting of such waivers difficult, two thirds of the committee have to give their approval for any waiver.When Memphis applied for a waiver, it was denied.[2]In response, the city of Memphis found a loophole. Since the law specified that monuments located on public property couldn’t be removed, the Memphis City Council had someone create a nonprofit organization, and then arranged for the sale of the land on which the statues it wanted to remove was located. The nonprofit then removed the statues without violating the law. This was challenged in court, but the challengers lost.[3]In response to this, the Tennessee legislature amended the law in 2018 to prohibit such sales in the future.[4]This fight is very much alive. And it is within the context of this fight that this celebration of Nathan Bedford Forrest must be understood. In 2018, the Tennessee legislature passed TN Code § 15-2-101.[5]Each year it is the duty of the governor of this state to proclaim the following as days of special observance: January 19, "Robert E. Lee Day"; February 12, "Abraham Lincoln Day"; March 15, "Andrew Jackson Day"; June 3, "Memorial Day" or "Confederate Decoration Day"; July 13, "Nathan Bedford Forrest Day"; and November 11, "Veterans' Day." The governor shall invite the people of this state to observe the days in schools, churches, and other suitable places with appropriate ceremonies expressive of the public sentiment befitting the anniversary of such dates.The governor is right that it’s the law. But this law didn’t magically enact itself. It was passed by the Republican legislature and signed by his Republican predecessor Bill Haslam. And if Governor Lee disagrees with the law, the least that can be said is that he has not made much of an effort to get it repealed.Again, the question must be asked. What does it say about the White South that they seem to think that the best part of their history was these 4 years they spent tearing their country apart and fighting for slavery and White supremacy?Footnotes[1] Historical Sites and Preservation - As enacted, enacts the "Tennessee Heritage Protection Act of 2016." - Amends TCA Title 4, Chapter 1, Part 4.[2] Tennessee Historical Commission denies City of Memphis waiver to remove Nathan Bedford Forrest Statue[3] Court of appeals backs city of Memphis in lawsuit over Confederate statues sale[4] Legislation in response to Memphis' Confederate statue removal signed by Gov.

actually look and see what pork there is in the bill, because I saw very little of it in there.This is, for as long as it is, one of the few bills I’ve seen that’s largely on point for what it’s supposed to do.What it’s not supposed to do is make the rich richer, which is what I suspect the republicans are really balking at. They want a piece of that pie and guess what… it’s not in there.

The cut off date for joining the Marine Corps is 28. You can however receive a waiver if you can prove you can tolerate the advanced physical training demanded by all Marines. I went to boot camp in 81 at the age of 19. We had a recruit who was 32 years old from Pakistan and half Irish. Physically he was fit, but the first week of phase two, he attempted suicide while at Edson range aboard Camp Pendleton for our marksmanship and infantry training. Apparently he just didn't have the mental stamina to continue as a Marine. I also do know that he had personal issues dealing with a wife away in Vegas. It was pretty tragic and a lot of blood. He cut his wrists, but not in the proper way if you really intend on killing yourselves. In fact our beloved Drill Instructors made it a point the very first week that if we wanted to commit suicide, they demonstrated the correct way to slit your wrists. So his was more of a cry for help then a legit suicide attempt. It resulted in his dismissal. He was simply sent home. Many people do not know that you are really not under the governments thumb until you actually graduate from boot camp. Up until than, you can quit anytime your heart desires, but who in their right mind wouldn't want the title of United States Marine? Semper Fidelis.
