NEW ORLEANS, Louisiana – A Black Lives Matter-aligned organization called ‘Take ‘Em Down Nola’ stormed New Orleans’ Andrew Jackson monument demanding all monuments related to the Civil War come down across the city. The monument which sits at the heart of the city’s historic French Quarter. Chanting “No justice, no peace” and “F*ck the police,” the group of protesters took issue with barricades and police guarding the iconic Jackson Square monument as a few members of Take ‘Em Down Nola immediately tried to jump the barriers, but were quickly apprehended by New Orleans Police Department (NOPD) officers.

The protests, for the most part, remained peaceful, though a number of protesters threw red paint-filled balloons at officers as well as their vehicles. At least one altercation took place, resulting in the arrest of a protester.

It means their Democrat Plantation Masters have lost control of BLM and they are left to perform on their own, and they only know how to do one thing - complain and protest.

A 5-10 day supply without logistic support from the entitlement network. The place will be a melee zoo in 2 weeks of that.

And all the costs of cleanup, new uniforms, and any other destruction must be part of a fine to teach these animals that nothing is for free. Destruction has a cost and make it a high cost for imbeciles.

Millennials aren't too swift with numbers, you know. Most of them think WWII took place in the 18th century.

It was caused by the Un and evil Charlie Chaplin.

These “protestors” think we should memorialize people like Michael Brown, Sandra Bland, Travon Skittles, Keith Lamont Scott.
Die while breaking the law, be black, get a monument.
That’s the ticket.

< “F*ck the police,” F**k n*****s.

Obama sure has done a fine job uniting everybody hasn't he?

I was watching Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back last night and when the scene of Darth Vader bowing to the Emperor came on, the guy looked so much like George Soros it was frightening. A very uncanny resemblance. Lucas must have foreseen the future when he made the movie. He captured the essence of evil very well.

He faked his death and operated behind the scenes as a spectre figure.

Have you watched any Mark Dice videos or Jesse Watters’ segments? Many Americans are either clueless about history, government or anything else for that matter. And they are willing to believe almost any nonsensical thing that someone tells them.

The Battle of New Orleans, won by Jackson in 1815, is a little-understood turning point of American history.

That is because one of America’s greatest geopolitical strengths is our UNIQUE navigable river system all the way into the heartland—transporting massive amounts of goods, both agricultural and manufactured. No other country has been blessed with this priceless transportation asset.

The key to this is the Port of New Orleans. If the British had captured New Orleans in 1815, we would be living in an entirely different world today.

Hillary Clinton is above the law. She was never going to be indicted. And now we know none of her friends had to worry, either.

We have devolved into the United States of Corruption.

Pshaw, Mr. Obama isn’t going to stage a “Chicago Seven” trial against his fellow travelers. He was raised in politics by Bill Ayers, terrorist and conspirator against this nation (traitor to with allegiance to North Vietnamese Communists while we were at war).

“I knew Old Hickory was tough....but being in the Civil War fifteen years after his death? THAT is badass.”

I for one am hoping he’s still registered to vote.
