When you make the new time capsule be sure and tell everyone how elections are being stolen and how the country is falling apart because of it.
This is fascinating. Harpers weekly, April 29th, 1865. Thats 155 years old.
Wow, ABC News actually allows you to comment on their video. I guess this is one of the few stories that they couldn't figure out how to inject fear into. Are you sure the confederates did lace the box with Anthrax? Now there's a real story!
Bunch of buffoons that don’t know what they are doing
(Breaking alert) A SINGLE piece of paper was found in the copper box, That read(LETS GO BRANDON)!
History destroyers. Shame on you.
Suggesting tone down the outros: unnecessary anchorman plugging his own name, making hasty social media requests; its sour: what you want is a one-beat jingle boop to audibly associate with your outlet, not a rattling pitch line.
They should destroy the time capsule in keeping with the spirit of destroying the statue.
Let the devil be
No one talked about slavery
Robert Lee is the devil roasted hell
Absolutely disgusting that they tore a statue down
It also contained a document, prophesying Jesus' second coming in the form of a potus named Trump and how devil worshiping democrats stole his re-election from him, just like they stole that document from that box. (or did Qanon or Fox beat me to it already?)
Made me wonder, though: were they afraid there could be a shortage of bibles in our times? Or did they put it in as an excuse, an alibi so to speak for the immorality of their slave ownership?

Well in the next time capsule throw in an IPhone, Samsung phone with chargers and some USB flash drives with everything that is happening and what America looks like now before any place sinks into the water.
I’m glad people in 2021 think people in 1887 had nothing better to do than make bombs
Wow a box full of worthless trush and information

The governor is a two faced hypocrite.He is all about opening the capsule yet destroys the Lee monument.Hey governor burn up the capsule and finish the job you carpet bagger!
Throw it all in the trash. No one wants white history taught in schools. It will teach whites to hate themselves. How ironic……
Wow! Harper's! I subscribe to them, although they are a magazine now. Just got my monthly magazine in the mail yesterday!
Can you imagined now…what other monuments stands of statues removed in the state of Virginia time capsules boxes might be hidding!? That will be so interested to find out!!!??..Ummmmm..
It contained a photo of a nude woman with a note on the back that reads – “Deer, brother. (Heart emoji) We may not be as inbred as thum Georjeans, but we hold it down here in VA! Love your sister always – Samantha.”
Just do something that will earn you money while you sleep , no matter how little . A pandemic is the perfect way to open your eyes to really see what life could be like without your usual income stream and everyone had to stay home . Well I never felt it because I invested in a trading company where I earn 4 digits per week . The best thing you can do for yourself is invest more and spend less…Despite the economic crisis, this is a good time to invest Dogecoin, bitcoin and forex.
They were hoping to find a rare photo of Abraham Lincoln in his coffin but it wasn't in there…. Still cool they found two time capsules.
Regardless of association, it's a major American historical find. So no one GAF about this..? Obviously not, by the care taken with it. This was a taken care of as thoughtfully and professionally as a bunch of 8 year-olds building a tree house. wtf!!! Embarrassing, disappointing, and amateurish. This is cringeworthy at best. "Without damaging the box any more than we have to". That was said AFTER they cut the whole side out. This whole thing made me sick. It was like watching a archeological team digging a site with a sledge hammer and bull dozer. (I'm referring to opening and emptying of the box, not the actual excavation) "COME ON , FOLKS! WE HAVE TO GET ALL OF THESE HISTORICAL ITEMS OUT OF THIS TIME CAPSULE IN 10 MINUTE!!! LET'S MOVE PEOPLE!!! I HAVE SOME RERUNS AND LEFTOVER'S TO GET HOME TO!!!
Boring
Who authorized them opening and destroying this part of history. Anyone that has visited a museum or even read about one knows light and handling speed the deterioration process
