Erase history and replace it with one more to the liking of those who pull the strings. How can we win when those elected to protect our nation are the worst of traitors?
Has to be stopped.
Next George Washington followed by the rest of the Founders
Then republicans, non-communists, climate deniers, Christians and heterosexuals.
...and yet the statue in question is still in place - albeit screened from view by an ugly tarp.
You left out cannibalism...not all, but a lot of tribes did it.
No history=no nation. Communism 101.
Makes one wonder how this will play out in Oklahoma where STAND WATIE is still memorialized in statue and stone, memorial highways, and such.
He was Cherokee born in Georgia, went West on the Trail of Tears, united the tribes in Oklahoma to the CONFEDERATE CAUSE was a CSA General, and sent messengers to all the tribes of the High Plains to join the Confederate cause, and was the last to cease fighting after the surrender of Lee.
The Indian tribes of the Southern Plains all had treaties with the CSA. The Northern tribes were aware of the Civil War and went on the warpath against the Union. Only the Pawnee, Crow, Yakatton Sioux and a few individual members of the various Oklahoma tribes remained loyal to the North.
In the not too distance future, look for them to demand that John Wayne westerns be banned from the airwaves because they are “offensive.”
Offended by every building, road, bridge, tunnel, statue, monument, toilet and outhouse named after this KKK Exalted Cyclops.
When do the perpetually offended start clamoring to tear down or rename everything related to this racist democrat?
The US Taliban marches on.
The Washington Monument could be coming down too... Washington had slaves and the monument is phallic and reeks of enough toxic masculinity that precious snowflakes get the vapors in its shadow. Orwells 1984 isnt a novel but a prophecy
“First it was Confederate monuments. Now statues offensive to Native Americans are poised to topple”
What about statues of Native Americans who were Confederates?
In a way, it has already started.
The old 60’s TV show ‘F Troop’ had a theme song that had words, now considered ‘verboten’ for snowflake ears.
So any reruns now shown on TV use an instrumental version of the theme song..............
What “Lincoln lovers”? What are you talking about?!
... Barak had a lot of work to do to change our history and tradition.
“Progress, far from consisting in change, depends on retentiveness. When change is absolute there remains no being to improve and no direction is set for possible improvement: and when experience is not retained, as among savages, infancy is perpetual. Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.”
From an old white guy that lived in the USA for many years.
Who wants to interrupt their summer weekend to go to a monument protest, right?
Pffft.
See #55 for the rest of the quote.
Americana as we know it.t
I say next we immediately REMOVE ALL STOP SIGNS since the word “STOP” is such a negative connotation. /s
And when all the statues representing our history have been taken down, what statues do you think will be going up?
