Should Confederate War Memorials/Statues Be Abolished?

  1. All these hurtful memorials to the Founders of this disgraceful country should be torn down and replaced by statues of LeBron and Obama.

  3. ... only to have Paleface attorney Elizabeth Warren claim she was an American Indian for special consideration. I wonder if Elizabeth Warren’s lie took away an opportunity from a true Native American?

    I wonder if I could get A&E Networks (History Channel, Military Channel, Lifetime, Vice) to bite off on a pilot.

    "STATUE WARRIORS"

    I think there's enough material there for at least three seasons. Lots of different angles. Thor Industries would probably throw down an RV.... free advertising for them, pull that pos toilet stock out of the trash heap, they're gonna need some Millennial love anyway in the years to come. What better way to generate some brand loyalty... go ham on every offensive Confederate statue across the South. Use Apple products too, they'll kick in some funding. Imagine the drama that will ensue when VZ rolls into the town square of Shagmysista, MS with a blowtorch and a jack-hammer.

    For season three we'll ship the RV across the pond and see what's interesting over there. Lots of history. Endless angles. And you know damn well there's a Hitler or Stalin statue somewhere. Make that the season finale. Get Geraldo to make a cameo for that one. Redeem himself after 30 years.

    I'll work on it.

    Government funded museums? Are you mad?

  9. Museums are private non-profit entities or run by foundations...??

    No one advocates in a broad scale to eliminate things from history. But why put a statue in a park and honor it rather than in a museum to study it. Gettysburg, Antietam, Manassas ...plenty of civil war museums with both sides covered in detail.

  10. Surely you jest.

    Your entire party is running on a platform of canceling and replacing America.
