Good thing the Tomb of the Unknown Soldiers at Arlington are guarded 24/7 by the Old Guard. Actually I wish Antifa and BLM would try this at Arlington. The soldiers could use the practice.

Did the park service use the American Flag to scrub the monument?

Apparently it’s ok to use choke holds in #chaz policing.

The park service government “workers” were well known for closing monuments and keeping tourists away during the illegitimate reign of The Greatest Fraud Ever. Since they have the ability to keep regular Citizens away from their property under that Fraud, you’d think they could keep these destructive commie losers away. Get to work you bums.

Three terrific short videos about the collapse of the West in 2020. I highly recommend all three.

We Are Ruled by Fools: Jared Taylor points out that rioting works. If the country had waited quietly for Derek Chauvin to be indicted and tried, there would not be nearly a billion dollars promised for black causes, whites on their knees before blacks, and monuments to white men coming down all over the country.

“The park service government “workers” were well known for closing monuments and keeping tourists away during the illegitimate reign of The Greatest Fraud Ever.”

I’ve never heard that! Can you provide details? (It certainly rings true, as does the recent episode of Park Service employees using an American flag as a toilet mop.)

The federal employees under Obama did it during one of the so-called government shutdowns over the budget. They stopped World War II and Korean war vets for coming to DC and seeing the monuments.

Maybe we need to get armed citizenry around the country that are near each monument to guard it voluntarily. I would certainly do that if I were within 50 miles of one. Perhaps a national effort to guard our history and serve as a message to these thugs who want to erase it.

For those who haven’t had the honor: when the British occupied Philadelphia, they turned Independence Hall,
One block over from what is now called Washington Square, into a hospital for American prisoners. However, they didn’t actually care For them, and hundreds, perhaps even a couple thousand, died miserable deaths in filth and agony. An unknown number are buried in the square. This is a beautiful and somber memorial. Desecration of this sacred ground, in and of itself, is sufficient cause to crush these bastards in November

Here’s the problem: The monuments being destroyed are all located in democrat/blue/progressive controlled areas. The destruction would not happen in other areas without major push-back, from the local government and police, if not from the people.
