Complete ignorance! Tearing down Ulysses Grant statue in San Francisco
Twitter ^

Posted on 06/20/2020 5:44:13 AM PDT by Bigtigermike

Joe Rivano Barton - Nearby statue of Ulysses S. Grant is also toppled. He was a slave owner too, before the Civil War. That’s three for three this night.

Lots of folks inexplicably defending a slave owner on Juneteenth, so just to be clear: Grant owned a slave for about a year and married into a slave owning family. If you’re defending the toppling of his statue on a day commemorating emancipation, ask yourself why.

What the mob knows is “anything old is bad”, “the white man is racist”, etc. The Marxists have done a great job.

It only makes sense when you realize marxist government is the goal. They must destroy all that is historic United States.

Grant worked in the fields beside his only slave and then freed him rather than selling him.

Don’t forget the marxists also target Grant “on behalf” of indigenous people.

Suggest they take the time to watch 3 part mini series on Grant. He did more for the blacks then any president before or after him.

Bingo. The way these people see things, Grant’s memory must be erased precisely BECAUSE he was an important figure in US history.

If Biden is elected abd we are forced to pay reparations, its CW2. It actually already is, however, we are not fighting back. Welcome to the Black-Green-Red Alliance. Welcome to black minority rule.

Reminds me of what mother’s say to unruly children,

“And this is why we cannot have nice things.”

Hell, it is the bedrock.

THAT will teach Grant for being friends with Robert E. Lee and James Longstreet!

It’s not ignorance, it’s racial hatred. It’s that simple.

What’s curious is the people howling about Hobby Lobhy buying cuneiform tablets for their museum are strangely not bothered by hordes of lunatics attacking their own civilization’s artifacts.

Remember that when he owned the slave, Grant was a Democrat. He became a Republican later.
