Ahhh. Is that what they're doing?
CNN needs to be "tampered with". d;^)
Did Columbus fight in the Civil War? Most of these useful idiots probably think so.
“Is there a webcam covering Columbus Circle in NYC?”
As useless as police (mayors) have been in protecting anything these days, what good would it do except for historical purpose?
Then they will erase all history and memory of slavery.
Then they will erase all history and memory of the fight for civil rights.
They will make people forget that it is possible to break their chains.
And then they will be free to enslave them fully. They are already being conditioned as slaves. Take a knee! Wear your slave mask! Speak only the words massah tells you to speak.
And what of the places named after him?
Columbus Ohio
Columbia University
District of Columbia
etc
Destroy all those places too?
It was one of the most infuriating, depressing, and horrible experiences of my life. Why? Class was akin to being in a racist/Communist "reeducation" camp. The rhetoric and propaganda from the "professor" was hateful, and full of damnable lies.
It was evil.
Decades of this garbage have come to fruition.
Did we really expect this kind of poison to not fester?
I’m ok with it so long as they are replaced with statues of Leif Erikson. That should make the SJWs happy (do i really need the /s tag?)
One reason why they hate Columbus is that he discovered the place and Europeans made the long voyage and stayed. Europeans are mostly Christian. They hate him for bringing Christianity.
“Native Americans” enslaved other Native Americans and some held Black slaves.
Some if not many of the Columbus statues were a reaction to anti-immigration sentiment in the country and anti-Italian sentiment in particular. Think of it like “You are anti-immigration, well, what about Columbus?”.
I’m Italian and I live in New York City. That statue is 75 ft tall and weighs God knows how much. They would need machinery and at this point I wouldn’t doubt that happening. But plenty of Italians would show up. We were going to last time if the Blasio tried to move it
If it were allowed I would go there to fight not to protest. I would go there to damage the people trying to take it down
Chris Colon was the Neil Armstrong of his day.
Maybe all the cities in the world named after Columbus and the Republic of Colombia should change their names. Columbia University certainly should rename itself as George Floyd University.
