Meaningless rituals, and the latest validation of Never-Ending Black Victimhood, nothing more.
It’s ridiculous and will accomplish nothing. The shake-down artists and virtue signalers will continue to agitate, whine, and blame others for their own failings.
People who had nothing to do with slavery apologizing to people who were not personally affected by slavery means nothing and is a colossal waste of time. If it’s so danged hurtful that the mere presence of a statue triggers these people, why do they continue to insist on talking about it and demanding apologies and reparations? Because they’re money grubbing attention whores. Good grief I’m sick of this crap.

It does sound though those in North Korea would appreciated where on can be sent to prison for alleged acts of distant relatives and ancestors one never knew.
Not a good move since nobody alive in Charleston is responsible for the slave trade nor any who suffered slavery. It will only renew demands for reparations.
Some of my distant relatives were shipped into Charlestown from New Gate Prison in the 17th century.
“the resolution was first brought to the city council by Charleston group the Social Justice Racial Equity Collaborative.”
“Get the F out of my office!”
Because they were all so involved in what ended 150+ years ago. /s
Is France going to ship us a apology plaque for New Orleans?
“While they’re at it...they should rename the famous tourist attraction Slave Market to Diversity Row.”
Probably a “vibrant” area.
It IS pointless... and it takes absolutely no effort.
How stupid
Tells you who’s running Charleston (wifeys hometown) now
I haven’t seen a single “thank you” commemorating the Union soldiers who fought and died defeating the confederacy and freeing the slaves. In fact, I live in the North and it’s my understanding that somehow I’m responsible for oppressing minorities. How come that historical legacy BS doesn’t rub off on any white people who did good? Which, btw, was the overwhelming majority of whites because the North had a higher population.
“When are blacks going to apologize for their role in slavery...”
About the same time they apologize for trying to make big cities uninhabitable.
“How stupid
Tells you who’s running Charleston (wifeys hometown) now”
Nikki Haley wannabees.
You know, I have never heard any expressions of gratitude towards the 100s of thousands of Union soldiers who gave their lives to win a war that ultimately led to the abolition of slavery.
I wish they didn’t have to. Charleston is one of the coolest places I have ever been. It is brimming with history and beautiful and pretty good weather and the people there have the highest Nice Quotient of anywhere I’ve ever been.
Every older city and plenty of younger ones could sit and start apologizing for everything in its past. I feel this is unnecessary.
I Wardaddy of Mississippi and the descendent of scores of Slave owners from small farmers to plantation owners and CSA vets do hereby formally not apologize for my ancestry buying your ancestry from your kinfolks in Africa who sold your ancestry in the first place to mine thereby introducing you to a land where your life span doubled and you were able to live outside constant intertribal warfare though you seem to cling to that despite best efforts even here but with new nomenclature and your line has prospered exponentially relative to Africa proportionately to your group capabilities
You on the other hand owe me and America a group apology for being responsible for half of violent crime despite being only 11-12% of the population and making many of our urban cores dangerous and corrupted and fomenting a cancerous identity politics culture
And as well purveying a carnalistic gyrating coarse influence on our culture that compliments your 70-80 percent illegitimacy rate
You brought it up
Happy Fathers Day
The list could be endless.
O/T, what I most remember about Little Big Horn was a wall section describing Custer's dealings with the Sioux prior to Little Big Horn. He pledged he would not raise a weapon against the Sioux.
That pledge was broken at the outset of the battle, which certainly explains some of the anger and savagery of the Indians that day. It was a teaching moment for my teenage son and 7 YO grandson on the importance of keeping one's word.
