POLL: Most Black Americans Don’t Want Confederate Statues Removed

Daily Caller ^ | 8/18/17 | Amber Randall

[Crucial]

I find this hard to believe. But then, I think blacks aren’t so angry right now as much as they’re scared.

[AmusedBystander]

So let me get this straight, Democrats are upset about memorials erected by Democrats honoring other Democrats from a war started by Democrats.

Got it.

[Songcraft]

They should also remove all statues of Jimmy Carter (if there are any), as he now supports (and says Jesus supports) queer marriage, and abortion (which is aimed mostly at minorities in minority neighborhoods by these racist abortion providers and supporters).

Oh...here's one of those Carter statues now...

         

[Repeal 16-17]

What Blacks think about those statues is irrelevant to Liberals. Liberals think Blacks should be offended and so they want the statues to come down.

[GOPJ]

Let us reflect upon Washington D.C.'s NFL franchise for a moment. White Liberal Pajama Boys/Girls seem to be more offended than Native Americans.

White Liberal Elites use minorities like a battering ram against conservative Americans. Liberals feel they own minorities and don't even bother to ask them if it's ok to use them in this rather hostile way...

[Gene Eric]

Similar results when the issue concerned monikers related to native Americans.

Normal people appreciate the value of history. The Democrat Thug Party, however, is behaving no different than ISIS.

Reminds me of when Dennis Praeger had on his old radio show someone claiming to be a “Native American activist” who joined the chorus trying to change team names, Redskins, Chiefs, Braves, FSU Seminoles, etc. He asked Mr. Paeger who’s an ordained rabbi how he would like it if there were a team called the Texas Jewboys? Praeger laughed out loud and said he would be overjoyed because FINALLY after 5000 years someone would be cheering for us. I LMAO and Damn near drove off the road when I heard that. :)

Great point!

[Windflier]

I'm a black man whose white ancestor was a General in the Confederate Army. His father wrote the Crittenden Compromise.

That aside, as a conservative patriot, I'm completely opposed to tearing down the monuments to our nation's history. Once started, it will never end, and we'll be no better than the Taliban.

[Windflier]

...Negro ancestors who fought for the Confederacy.

Some of us black folks have white ancestors who fought for the Confederacy. I've never been a member of the Sons of The Confederacy, but I guess I could.

[Yaelle]

FDR went to Evian and said the USA didn’t want to help Jewish refugees in Europe. He sent back a ship full of live refugees, who ended up back in Europe to die in the camps they escaped.

[Yaelle]

I try to listen daily but I never heard that story. Awesome. I don’t know if Prager is an ordained rabbi, he has the knowledge, and he delivers spectacular high holida services, but I didn’t think he was a rabbi.

[Impala64ssa]

I stand corrected. He did attend the Yeshiva of Flatbush in Brooklyn.

[Gene Eric]

LOL — love it!

[cgbg]

So, 57% of the “strong Democrats” said they should be removed.

That is the Democratic base.

That is the group that will make or break the Democratic Party.

That is why there cannot be a “civil” discussion about issues with Democrats.

Then have gone “deep Orwell”-seeking to rewrite history until a boot is stomping on everyone’s face—totally evil.

You cannot compromise with a thug about to stomp your face with their boot—even if you want to...

[Feckless]

Because most Black Americans are not Anarchists and Communists. The Lying, Dying Fake News Liberal Media gives the few who are a megaphone.

[I want the USA back]

Most Black Americans live this country. Yes.

[Incorrigible]

Bump
