The imagery couldn’t be more direct. Across the nation, rioting and unrest that has killed black Americans and destroyed black neighborhoods has included the defacement of historic monuments, including those to abolitionists.The last wave of monument destruction, in 2017, largely focused on Confederates and slave holders, erasing all the accomplishments of figures such as George Washington and Thomas Jefferson with a scarlet S, for slave-holder. This time, the ignorance has descended even further. The rioters are now tearing down and defacing memorials wantonly, apparently assuming that if someone is being celebrated that person is “probably a racist,” as the image below says.

Since the rioters are deciding what statues to destroy and which buildings to burn I think pro-lifers should draw grafitti and destroy and burn PP offices and destroy Margaret Sanger statues.
I watch all the whites having guilt and feeling white priveledge BUT if they REALLY meant it they should give away their housing and give away their spot in colleges. Easy to stand around and tell others how they should show how much they support but when it comes down to it they don't really mean it, If they did mean it they would give away their comfort so others can have them.

Have you noticed how many virtuous media figures have resigned and recommended their jobs be filled by some disenfranchised minority??
Cuck Todd, Andrea Mitchell (Washington!) Chris Cuomo, Joe Schmo and his Ho....too many to list
They'll give your job and your children's future away but not theirs'.

Like the idiots that banned Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn. They don't realize that Mark Twain was at heart an abolitionist, and was trying to get more fair treatment of blacks. For this his novels were banned.

They will not recognize that without White farmers and merchants in the abolitionist movement that they would not be free today? Those people put everything they had on the line for a cause they believed in. If caught they, faced prison and financial ruin. Harriet Tubman would never have moved one slave north without the Underground Railroad network. We had several "stops" in our town and I worked in one of them. I used to love to sit in that cellar after hours and imagine what it must have been like. In this case it was the local Miller a German immigrant who constructed wagons with false bottoms who transported people to the next "station," all done under cover of darkness. It must have been so terrifying for all involved. It's was so lucky for those who found freedom that the old Miller didn't realize that he suffered from inherited, White European, systemic, racism...he might have had second thoughts.
We are reaping the harvest of cr@appy schools revisionist history.

This is akin to the Nazis book burnings after they seized control of Germany. Many of the citizens gleefully joined in burins some of their own books deemed unsatisfactory.

Those anarchists and idiots who are defacing civil war era and other historic monuments and statues should be identified, arrested, and prosecuted to the fullest extend of the law.
Senator Warren of Massachusetts is proposing that the names of Confederate Generals be removed from historic US Army Forts throughout the South because those Generals were traitors to the USA when they served in the Confederate Army and fought against the USA. But on December 25, 1868 President Andrew Johnson granted unconditional presidential pardons to all Confederate soldiers. Some of those former Confederate Officers later served as officers in the US Army. Those Forts carry those former Confederate General’s names as part of the reconstruction agreements and efforts after the Civil War. Apparently Warren also wants the graves of former Confederate solders to be removed from the National Cemeteries and all monuments and statues in those Confederate Sections removed. Those Confederate soldiers were given Presidential pardons over 150 years ago and it is out of line for pandering leftist and liberal Democrat politicians to now claim that they are traitors, as many of the former Confederate soldiers thereafter served honorable in the US Army after being pardoned by the President of the USA in accordance with his constitutional powers. In appears that there are a lot of pandering politicians and media talking heads who obviously don’t know their US history supporting a lot of anarchists and idiots who don’t give a crap about legitimate US history. Most don’t know that it was the Democrats who wanted slavery to continue, and that it was a Republican President, Abraham Lincoln who freed the slaves.
I don’t have any love lost for the Confederacy. I have ancestors who were in the Union Army who fought and died in a lot of the big Civil War battles, including including Antietam, Gettysburg, and Vicksburg, with my great grandfather having been shot in the Battle of Fredricksberg. But what is right is right. Many of the White anarchists wanting to destroy Civil War history today, did not even have ancestors in the USA at the time of the Civil War and the Reconstruction Period.

This is what you pay enormous school tax bills for - revisionist history, revisionist math, revisionist English, revisionist everything. Create more charter schools or bite the bullet and educate your kids yourself, unless you don't care that your kids turn out stupid and indoctrinated.

I don't know if I can keep reading about the destruction of American history and property. Millennials are the most ignorant people on the face of the earth. Sooner or later, one of these little darlings will get shot over stupidity. Nikki Haley, we are not forgetting about your part.
