College Students Demand Removal Of Thomas Jefferson Statue Representing A ´Legacy Of Racism And Bigotry´

Original Article

Posted By: ladydawgfan, 3/31/2019 12:34:14 AM

The good folks over at Campus Reform report that leftist students at Hofstra University are demanding the college´s administration take down a statue of founding father Thomas Jefferson because the statue represents a "legacy of racism and bigotry on college campuses." Campus Correspondent Sergei Kelley reports that Hofstra students held a second annual "Jefferson Has Gotta Go!" event on Friday. In addition to demanding that Jefferson´s statue be torn down due to his slave-holding past, the group that gathered sought to ´´expose the culture of bias and discrimination" found on college campuses. Who exactly put on this event?

Comments:

Its WAY past time for a college administrator to stand up to these bossy little snots and tell them "NO!!" And if they continue to vandalize the statue, pack up their dorm rooms because they are IMMEDIATELY expelled if they are caught, convicted or confess!!

Name a country with a "legacy" they prefer.
Then have them pack their bags and move there. Now. No waiting to graduate.

They surrender their US citizenship and passports. Scram. Get out.

Proving their propagandized brains and arrogance, they assume authority to make moral pronouncements and condemnations on things which the greatest Republic has dealt with and which it continues to strive toward, indeed "a more perfect Union."

Time for the adults to set down and maintain the rules. Add expulsion to the list of penalties.

Gads what imbeciles.

..:Wonder if they’re aware one of the patron saints of the Democrats, JFK, said of Nobel laureates in 1962, “...this is the most extraordinary collection of talent, of human knowledge, that has ever been gathered together at the White House, with the possible exception of when Thomas Jefferson dined alone. Someone once said that Thomas Jefferson was a gentleman of 32 who could calculate an eclipse, survey an estate, tie an artery, plan an edifice, try a cause, break a horse, and dance the minuet.”

The intolerance and idiocy of these little historicist flowers would be ironically funny if it weren’t so lethal.

I wonder if these twits are familiar with the Molasses Triangle and the complicity of the Northern colonies in the slave trade. It went like this: Molasses from the Caribbean was shipped to New England where it was distilled into rum. The profits from the sale of the rum went to Africa to buy slaves. The slaves were shipped to the Caribbean to work the sugar cane plantations where the molasses was produced. Slaves were imported from the Caribbean to the southern colonies to work the tobacco and later cotton plantations.

The entire concept of college appears to have jumped the shark at this point. It’s time to go back to Guild training for skills and crafts, unless one plans to be an engineer or doctor. The “studies” crowd of lefty drone shock troops the current system is turning out has exactly zero value for society.

Ps: I’m guessing these Hofstra kids couldn’t get into UVA?

The problem is that the "people in charge" have lived in their ivory towers of academia for too long, and believe exactly the same as these brain-dead students do!!!!!

Socialism has infected every level of education, and it is the tool that the Marxists are using to destroy our nation!!!!!

Imagine if WW-III breaks out. With the lie-beral mindset of generations of people "educated" in hating this country, our government will surrender faster than France since we will have no young men with the will or ability to fight to save a nation that they have been raised by our education system to hate!!!!!!

It will be up to the old people to fight!!!!!

One of the most despicable things about the Biden administration is that, even as it doubles and triples down on the COVID restrictions it wants for Americans, it’s utterly unconcerned about the diseases flooding across the border along with the illegal aliens Biden is unconstitutionally welcoming in. The president and CEO of Greyhound Lines, though, is demanding that, at the very least, its workers and other passengers get protected from the COVID so many illegal aliens bring with them. From the start of his campaign, Biden weaponized the Wuhan virus against Trump. Informed and intelligent people realized very quickly that Trump was moving with extraordinary rapidity

Biden has issued Executive Orders that ban enforcing immigration law while simultaneously inviting in a new wave of illegal immigrants. These EOs also suspend deporting illegal immigrants, even those awaiting trial for felonies and other serious crimes, and signal that all new arrivals will be eligible for social benefits such as healthcare. Cesar Chavez’s struggle in the 1970s and ‘80s can help explain the impact this will have on labor markets in general and working-class Americans in particular. Chavez understood that illegal immigration diminishes workers’ earning power.

It began with throw pillows. Pillows shouldn't matter much, but like every decision we make now, they matter more than you think. The old sofa had to go. It had lasted 25 years, by some miracle. The old sofa was U.S.-made. Only 20% of today's furniture is. It was expensive; the store owner told us we'd be able re-upholster it down the road, though that would be expensive, too. He was right on both counts. He retired. His kids run the store now. We managed to find a new sofa, also made here. A different color. So we needed throw pillows.

Republican lawmakers ridiculed House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s ongoing deployment of National Guard troops and police as well as fencing and razor wire around the U.S. Capitol during speeches at the Conservative Political Action Conference in Orlando, Fla., on Saturday. “I wouldn’t be surprised if we start quartering soldiers in the committee hearing rooms,” said freshman Rep.

While House Speaker Nancy Pelosi cited precedent and prerogatives of current presidents to justify putting a majority of Democrats on a so-called “1/6” panel to investigate the Jan. 6 Capitol riot, others in her party have another reason why they don’t want to seat many Republicans. Quite simply, some Democrats say, they don’t trust the post-Trump GOP to seriously probe the incident because they believe, without evidence thus far, that some Republican members were either in on it or responsible for it. “We do not owe delusional deniers a role or a platform in a commission designed to try to ferret out extremism and violence

This fortune cookie lived up to its name. Ernesto Sorzano’s Chinese-takeout dinner paid off big-time when he played the set of lucky numbers in his fortune cookie on a North Carolina Powerball ticket, according to UPI. Sorzano said he used the numbers when buying a $3 power-play ticket — and they ended up matching four of the winning ones, landing him $500,000. The Florida resident — who is in the process of moving to Huntersville, NC — told the news agency he’ll use his winnings to buy a new house there. “This was a good investment,” Sorzano said of his rice and shrimp dinner, plus dessert cookie.

Activist judges pushing a far-left agenda have been legislating from the bench, and a handful of Supreme Court Justices committed to upholding the Constitution is the only thing stopping the left's total transformation of the country. For that reason, Democrats have been lying in wait for the opportunity to take out the Supreme Court. Democrats are no longer hiding their disdain for the high court. Democrats openly admit to hostile court-packing plans that would stuff the Supreme Court full of activist judges who would then sign off on everything Democrats couldn't sneak past the voters.

“He who pays the piper calls the tune.” It’s a hard, fast rule in the world of politics, which is precisely why we must always be vigilant against the corrupting influence of private money in our public electoral process. There was a great deal of consternation expressed throughout 2020 about funding nationwide elections in the midst of a deadly pandemic. Fortunately, our public institutions were up to the test. Unfortunately, we also experienced the reality of large-scale private election funding for the first time — and in the process discovered the reason we had never allowed it before.

I’m probably second to none in my dislike for Meghan Markle. There’s something unattractive about a mature woman marrying into the British Royal family with one of the world’s most expensive weddings, hanging out with the Queen, living in insane luxury…and then whining non-stop about the horror of her life. There’s something even less appealing when that woman accuses the Royal family of race hatred. And the problem is that, when it comes to that left-wing diva, Meghan Markle, it’s hard to believe most of what she says. After weeks of hype, CBS finally televised Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s interview with Oprah.
