When demonstrations triggered by the death of George Floyd spread to Philadelphia, vandals defaced a statue outside City Hall of an old white man. They spray-painted the words “colonizer” and “murderer” on it. But the statue was of Matthias Baldwin, a 19th-century businessman and abolitionist.
Baldwin was a vocal opponent of slavery decades before the Civil War. He founded a school for poor black children and paid the teachers’ salaries for years. He also advocated voting rights for blacks well before the enactment of the 15th Amendment. None of this spared his likeness from today's Jacobins.
Nor was the Baldwin episode an isolated case.

BLM, Antifa are about the same. Both are thugs. People that support them are far left. My granddaughter, on her facebook page has BLM all over it. She is in college in Texas and from her facebook, she participates in the protests. My husband and I have decided she is cut off ($$). Both her birthday and christmas gift will be donated to the widows and orphans of fallen police officers.

Washington and Jefferson owned some slave...many wealthy landowners did in their day. Marx and Lenin own hundreds of millions of slaves...to this very day. The Left are like the Morlocks in The Time Machine: brutal, violent thugs living in darkness. They are turning our Youth into the Eloi: shallow, timid, ignorant future-meals.

Last Sunday was beautiful and I had planned to go to Fort Donelson. Alas, some vandals had sprayed graffiti all over some of the statues there. The park service has plans to clean them and I'll try and go later. How I loathe those vandals!

The tactics of psychological warfare used by Marxist Communist democrats, liberals, Rino's, their surrogate's Antifa, BLM, brainwashed imbeciles in Marxist Communism they call Progressive Socialism or Social Justice, against peaceful freedom loving Americans who love this greatest country to ever exist where everyone lives 1000% better than those people who live elsewhere. That is why they want to get into America legally or illegally.
(America's education has since the 1970's been taken over by traitors to America working to instill Marxist Communism calling it Progressive Socialism or their surrogate name - Social Justice, upon all students.)
Franklin Roosevelt stated May 16, 1940:
"We have seen the treacherous use of the 'fifth column' by which persons supposed to be peaceful visitors were (citizens are) actually a part of an enemy unit of occupation.
Lightning attacks, capable of destroying airplane factories and munition works hundreds of miles behind the lines, are a part of the new technique of modern war …(in this case destroying America from within as they truly hate America as a Christian nation for they serve Satan, we must not allow traitorous social justice Communists to take over American politics and everyday life).
We must be strong in heart and mind; strong in our faith …
This nation requires also a toughness of moral and physical fiber ... characteristics of a free people ... a people willing to defend a way of life that is precious to them all, a people who put their faith in God."
Roosevelt stated December 29, 1940:
"Their secret emissaries are active in our own and in neighboring countries.
They seek to stir up ... dissension to cause internal strife. They try to turn capital against labor, and vice versa.
They try to reawaken long slumbering racial and religious enmities which should have no place in this country …
These trouble-breeders have but one purpose. It is to divide our people into hostile groups and to destroy our unity and shatter our will to defend ourselves …"
FDR continued:
"There are also American citizens, many of them in high places, who, unwittingly in most cases, are aiding and abetting the work of these agents.
I do not charge these American citizens with being foreign agents. But I do charge them with doing exactly the kind of work that the dictators want done in the United States."

- propaganda,
- infiltration of college campuses,
- getting Marxist professors hired,
- establishing student groups to recruit revolutionaries.
- infiltrate music and movie industries to produce entertainment eroding moral fiber,
- malign patriotism,
- gain control of the leadership of all political parties,
- place moles in government bureaucracies and courts,
- and finally, sway churches to de-emphasis salvation through the Gospel of Jesus Christ and replace it with social justice issues.
Like a software virus infecting computers, fifth column tactics infected Western Civilization with socialist ideology.
Reagan stated in 1961:
"Now back in 1927 an American socialist, Norman Thomas, six times candidate for president on the Socialist Party ticket, said the American people would never vote for socialism.
But he said under the name of liberalism the American people will adopt every fragment of the socialist program."
Soviet leader Nikita Khrushschev reportedly told Ezra Taft Benson, Eisenhower's Secretary of Agriculture, in 1959:
"Your children's children will live under communism. You Americans are so gullible.
No, you won't accept communism outright, but we'll keep feeding you small doses of socialism until you will finally wake up and find that you already have communism.
We won't have to fight you; We'll so weaken your economy, until you fall like overripe fruit into our hands."
General Douglas MacArthur warned the Michigan legislature in Lansing, Michigan, May 15, 1952:
"Talk of imminent threat to our national security through ... external force is pure nonsense.
It is not of any external threat that I concern myself but rather of insidious forces working from within which have already so drastically altered the character of our free institutions – those institutions we proudly called the American way of life."
Eisenhower addressed Congress, February 2, 1953:
"No single country, even one so powerful as ours, can alone defend the liberty of all nations threatened by communist (Brainwashed American's call Progressive Socialism) aggression from without and subversion within."

If you think that the 'protests' are about race relations, or that you're dealing with people who can be reasoned with, you'd be surprised.
If on the other hand, you realize that you are dealing with a destructive force that just wants to smash this country and is especially aroused by the best in us, which absolutely MUST be destroyed, you wouldn't be surprised. You'd just wonder what you could do.

If these Democrat thugs had been met by force in the beginning, this would have stopped.

I learned a long time ago that "true believers" can not be reasoned with, regardless idealology, beliefs or faith. True believers are not interested in any facts contrary to their beliefs, are surprisingly immune from rational thought, will not have their minds changed and will often change the subject or get violent if you score points. These true belivers are not open minded.

The left appeals to the inner two year old. I want to take your toy away and if you don't let me have it I will break it.
Bravo #5 we are up against the exact same forces that have plagued us since the Bolshevik revolution. FDR sure talked a good game while he let Soviets run rampant in our government, gave Stalin uranium, critical aluminum for centrifuges and plans to become a nuclear power.

I guarantee you that SHOULD the Democrats regain control of the reigns of government at the Federal level they will NOT put up with it and the Koncentration Kamps would be established for offenders.

Yes FDR had 485 now known Communists working in his administration. He is quoted as saying he knows many communists, they seem to be quit nice fellows.
Democracy does not guarantee equality of conditions, it only guarantees equality of opportunity.
Theodore Roosevelt
The ideal tyranny is that which is ignorantly self-administered by its victims. The most perfect slaves are, therefore, those which blissfully and unaware they enslave themselves.
Dresden James
The whole truth of brainwashed liberalism is this but they are unawares. The urge to save humanity is almost always only a false face for the urge to rule it.

I keep hearing statements like "Americans will never accept this or that" or "do Americans really want this?:". It isn;t about that. We probably don't want this ir that but by god we will have to tolerate it if we continue to send our kids to college or refrain from using overwhelming force to destroy the punks. All the while muttering "lock and load" or some such meaningless tripe.

Ignorance, stupidity and the need to rebel against old white folks who built this country will get these little twits nowhere. It became fashionable during the Obama years to allow young teenage punks to form flash mobs, loot and beat people up. I would not hesitate to drop any of them in their tracks if I or my family is threatened. The police will not touch them but you can be sure that honest citizens defending themselves would receive the full treatment of the law. The country is backwards until this nonsense is put under firm and reasonable control.

Everything happening right now was planned in advance. George Floyd's killing was the catalyst to The Perfect Storm.
When you look at these thugs and miscreants on the streets you see mostly fierce young men brainwashed and crazed. They look like wild animals. They are the dropouts of high school and society that have found a purpose and are accepted into a cult of lawlessness through indoctrination.... another Jim Jones culture on steroids! They feel wanted and have friends. These creatures are being supported by George Soros' many organizations to destroy our country and replace it with his Open Society. His tentacles reach deep into the Democrat party and the Deep State of our government. Money has a way of getting things accomplished.
The Democrats have been complicit to this ordeal for years and the Republicans are MIA. What a mess! We can look back and ask ourselves how did this start. So many things have contributed to this: the lack of parental guidance, the leftist indoctrination in schools and the lack of patriotism, secularism, social media, drugs, the lack of inspiration and encouragement for youths to strive for something to attain. The list is endless.
There's an huge opportunity for President Trump to accomplish his greatest achievement as President with this situation and I believe he will do that. Right now, the police are the scapegoats and there will be reforms. Though, they are not the main problem nor is BLM. The problem is the current culture with disadvantaged youths. When they refer to White Privilege they are basically referring to a HAVE and HAVE NOT culture that exists for them. They are screaming this and wanting to be heard. Voila! their the perfect recruits into the Soros cult of anger, envy and hate. This is what happens when you have a high percentage of HS drop outs. Add to it the economy shutdown and you have The Perfect Storm.

We've all gotten use to hearing that worn out phrase "this is the new normal" when referring to life in the USA in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. I don't want to hear that phrase when referring to the anarchist behavior that we are witnessing in our largest cities primarily under Democrat leadership. Wake up America because if Democrats are elected this November, this will become the new normal.

The core issue is do you want a civilization based on reason or emotion?
Emotion is knee jerk reaction to situations based on limited knowledge and sometimes, nothing at all. Do you know people who emote based on inner stimuli having nothing to do with the situation around them? You wonder, "What the heck is the matter with them?", but realizing it is something internal to THEM, you walk away.
But suppose you couldn't. Suppose their emotions were allowed to dictate YOUR actions? They are upset because you are wearing a red hat that says you love your Country. Therefore, you can't wear that hat. Sound familiar? Further, since emotions can't be pulled out and examined, how do we know they are real. Does anyone really think Nancy Pelousy's Kinte Krew was REALLY moved by the strife in the Country or are they delighted that they have something to throw at Trump?
Then you have to ask, WHOSE emotions rule the situation. If I get REALLY, REALLY upset with the rioters, do I and people who FEEL as I do get to mow them down? Burn their houses? Throw them in prison for the rest of their lives? Then it becomes who has the most willpower and force to to carry out their feelings?
Does that all sound insane?
Or do we want to rationally debate and enact laws that are fair to everyone and enforce them equally? Is it true that you shouldn't assault people no matter how angry you are? Is it true you should not destroy other people's property no matter how unfair you think life is? Is it true you should not steal no matter the circumstances? Is all this and so much like it true, no matter your race, sex, age, or beliefs? Isn't this what we want?

Denver radio is reporting that this occupation garbage, rioting, etc is the start of the marxist revolution in America.

If these people are going to destroy confederate things because they fought against the USA, then don't they have to destroy everything German and Japanese because they also fought against the USA? Eliminate all things named for Germans or that have German names; towns, counties, cities, schools, colleges, the list goes on and on. Then attach the Japanese Americans who were imprisoned by FDR and put all their children and grandchildren in jail. Where will they stop?

The useful idiots who support these groups are more interested in virtue signaling than actual virtue. They, like Pelosi, live in a gated community and are all for the "cause" as long as they don't have to live there. If they think they will be spared the whirlwind they are setting loose, they are sadly mistaken.
