    Just spit balling but confederate statues are not memorials to veterans of the United States of America.

    The lawyers will have fun. I expect who funded the statues will be relevant.. Hmmm..

  3. Bitch Trump says he will sign an Executive Order demanding that statues in cities be protected.

    His Executive Orders are about as useless as Tiffany Trump

    Statues of Jesus Christ are 'form of white supremacy,' should be torn down
    https://www.foxnews.com/media/shaun-king-jesus-christ-statues-white-supremacy

    Far-left activist Shaun King on Monday said all images depicting Jesus as a “white European” should be torn down because they are a form of “white supremacy.”

    King made his remarks over a series of Twitter posts as historic monuments and statues have become the targets of anger and vandalism during Black Lives Matter protests in the wake of George Floyd’s death while in police custody late last month.

    Well, clown just put a target on every monument. If there was no reason for "antifa" to vandalize them, now doing so will be to protest fascism

  7. I have not followed this thread completely but I hope that there is not a suggestion that the protesters have just removed/defaced confederate material such that Trump's comments are totally misplaced. This is definitely not true.

    Viewers had to endure -for example- my full rant on how these fuckers defaced and damaged the statutes/mural of the 54th massachusetts regiment at the Boston Common. Those soldiers were clearly part of a union regiment and an all black regiment at that. Since then they have damaged/defaced countless union army commemorative sites.

    I will say again and again, the lefties have people- including many here- duped into thinking that this is just an anti-confederate/racist movement. WRONG!!! This is a full cancel-culture movement. Anything related to the history of America is to be cancelled and replaced.

    Next up in the movement: Assault upon and defacing/burning of churches. Already underway.

    Shaun King = big, big buddy of Bernie and has lots of influence in those circles.

    American writer Shaun King calls statues of Jesus a tool of white supremacy; urges to be torn down

    He took to Twitter and wrote: “Yes I think the statues of the white European they claim is Jesus should also come down. They are a form of white supremacy. Always have been,” King tweeted. “In the Bible, when the family of Jesus wanted to hide and blend in, guess where they went? EGYPT! Not Demark. Tear them down.”

    Good post. But I'm confused as to why everyone ignores the obvious reason this is happening. The crowds who attack symbols aren't equipped to know or interested in who the statues represent or what cause they may have been associated with.

    The decision to destroy is strictly chromatic. Nothing more.
