Kevin Stone
Current leader of the NC Sons of Confederate Veterans. Author of the victory letter that, for several reasons, poured gasoline on the Silent Sham controversy. One reason was because, in the letter, Stone's expressed intent to use the $2.5 million dollar monument trust to build a meeting facility for the SCV. Another reason was that when T. Greg Doucette posted the letter, Stone shut down Doucette's Dropbox with a DMCA complaint, which in retrospect was almost certainly a misstep from both strategic and legal perspectives.
Stone is active in the so-called “Mechanized Calvary.”
