Yes to all that, but get this: I live near the South Carolina State House, you know, the one where the Confederate flag used to fly over the dome and later by the Confederate soldier statue? Both were hauled down through pressure by the NAACP & other suspects. There is now a huge MLK mural near the building itself.

Now....not far from the Confederate soldier memorial is a larger than life size statue of Pitchfork Ben Tillman, on an even taller pedestal. It has stood there since 1940 and so far barely a peep from the Entitlement Community to have it removed.

Go figure.....

You’re assuming that their thought process is capable of processing and remembering more than “Orange Man Bad”

I am rarely downtown and go by the state house even less.

Never paid much attention.

No downtown unless I have to. I stay in the burbs.
