Yeah sure Rep Richmond. Removing chunks of stone because it offends someone will magically make sh!tholes like Baltimore, Chicago, etc shining cities on the hill.

Doesn’t matter. It’s easy pandering.

MSM believes it hurts Trump.

So more and more will pop up.

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.

I suspect most black Americans are smart enough to know that you are 100% correct, and mature enough to know that you’d have to be a special kind of misfit to even care all that much about memorials for Confederate historical figures who died more than a century ago.

didn’t we just hear ‘majority rules’ ‘majority rules’ for the last 8 months as Lefties cried about their election loss?

but when ‘majority rules’ works against them, then it’s back to ‘one voice’ should be more important than the majority.

It all boils down to being about power. Liberalism is all about power. They have not been in power since the election and it’s driving them crazy. So, they will grab and exert as much as they can steal at every opportunity.

White liberal elites use the black community to express ‘elite hatred’ for conservatives. That way we’re not mad at the white liberal elites - we’re mad at the black community.

Nasty liberal elites... nasty people..

The Entire Left is getting nuttier, each and every day, but way too many non-Leftists, also, continue to not take full political advantage of this. And, too many within the entire GOP continue to be foolish as well as continue to practice RINO Republicanism and Anti-Trump Republicanism, instead of practicing mature, decent Conservative Republicanism, on all issues! Right now, conservatives should be taking full advantage of ALL of the ongoing problems that the Left is having, ever since Donald Trump won the race for POTUS!

Those sculptures are the artistic renderings of the emotions, beliefs and memories of the people of their time. Like all art they record history and help future generations understand their fore bearers and how they came about. Will the Left next go into museums and libraries and destroy other sculptures, paintings and books that offend modern sensibilities. Actually if they could the Left would destroy as much American culture as they could to achieve their goals.

Is AuntieFaye going to hunt down the Negro members of the Sons of the Confederacy? My father-in-law was a member in two different chapters one at a time and there was a Negro in one and the treasurer in the other was a Negro, both having had Negro ancestors who fought for the Confederacy.

I’m one of them. As if my life could be negatively affected by a statue. Absurd. Keep ‘me up!

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

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.

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.

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.
