To create more woke BS that is killing or country

[rarestia]

This is a damn travesty. I’m sure the original sculptor was consulted, right? SMH

Finally, the healing can begin.

[NohSpinZone]

Some kind of irony here. The statue of the face of the rebellion and civil war to be melted down for the new cause of the next civil war.

“Swords Into Plowshares”

Biblical references are already becoming unwoke. They’re going to have to melt the thing down again, shortly.

[Recovering_Democrat]

They’re so pathetic.

[rktman]

History? Meh.....

[lee martell]

Oh, please!
Are they going to use the molten metal to make horseshoes with the Trans Logo stamped into each one?
Maybe that unpronounceable symbol Prince used for a few years.

[right way right]

Hate Whitey statues now...how great.

<< The city council will give the statue to the Jefferson School African American Heritage Center, >>

Next up, renaming the school.

You know... If you want to show someone is crazy in a movie you might have their character furiously draw chaotic lines over and over a picture of some ex or other perceived enemy. This feels very much like that.

The Charlottesville, Va. city council on Tuesday unanimously approved for the statue of Confederate leader Robert E. Lee to be melted down to create public artwork “that will “reflect racial justice,” The New York Times reported.

The elite inhabit an increasingly rarified sphere where I suppose this sort of stuff is considered oh so very important. Meanwhile, the average shlep is trying to figure out how to pay for groceries, fuel, and heat for the Winter as the price of everything spirals out of control.

[MrRelevant]

A giant food stamp?

[DesertRhino]

Depraved. Utterly shameful to vilify such a decent man.

Pathetic virtue signaling.

What a bunch of empty-headed pukes!

When I saw the headline, I checked to see if this was the Babylon Bee. Unfortunately, it wasn’t.

[Paleo Pete]

What idiots...

If I remember correctly, when war broke out Lee was in DC trying to negotiate an end to slavery, and was offered a commission by the Union, which he declined, saying he would not fight against his friends and neighbors just a half hour ride (on horseback) away.

I find it strange that he would do that, fight a war for a cause he didn’t believe in, rather than against it, but I think that’s what I read about it a while back.

Now these people want to melt his statue down to force some sort of idiocy on us, certainly to tell us how evil whitey is, just because he’s white...

what a boondoggle...
