If you’re wondering where all these radical leftists in America came from, look no further than the nearest college campus.Academia has been spoon feeding a steady diet of leftism to American students for generations. Now they are beginning to see the fruits of their labor. At the University of Wisconsin-Madison, students are now demanding the removal of a campus statue of Abraham Lincoln.From their petition: Remove and replace “The Lincoln Statue” from Bascom Hill Many UW-Madison students wait to take their picture on the lap of the Abe Lincoln statue atop Bascom Hill when they graduate.

Perhaps the students should contemplate careers in domestic engineering once they're kicked out of college. In Wisconsin, who am I kidding?

Where are the Parents? Why don't they call up the head of the University and tell them NO, do not remove that Statue. If you do, I will withdraw my child, and there will be no more money from me to this University! That is what should happen!!

There is no negotiation. There is only cowardice and capitulation or a direct forceful rejection of dishonest demands. The word "forceful" was chosen deliberately above.
Tell them no. If they engage in riotous assembly, tell them to disperse. If they commit ANY act of violence towards people or property, give them one warning. If they still don't disperse, open fire.
Leave the bodies in the streets as a warning to others.

Are you kidding, #4? Remember the story of the immigrant who visited America and was impressed by how well parents obeyed their children.

Demand! I demand they stop acting like fools and get their studies done. Graduate at the top of their class and get a job.

And so many nodded and thought it was fine to tear down Robert E Lee and "Stonewall" Jackson. The words "traitor" was even used here. I could practically hear it unspokenly said. Yes, yes, if we just give in to this one iconoclastic demand from the truculent infantile progressive Left, then their blood lust will be satiated.
Ah ha... not so my friend. Have you forgotten your history? Marxists' blood lust is never satiated my friend. Never. Even when all the enemies of "the people" have been beheaded or murdered, they find new grievances and new outrages and new enemies. Hate works like that.
Statues today.... people tomorrow.

Students? Don't they mean a few students or a small minority of students? Can someone explain what the objection to Lincoln is?

These universities should immediately tell these so called students to pound sand.

It seems that the university has a very weak history curriculum. The ''professors'' need remedial education themselves!
We wonder how college students can be so ignorant and easily influenced to do wrong things, but the answer is that we have a broken education system in America. From K-12, students are failed by the education system. Political activists, who can't separate their politics from the classroom- or worse, activists who purposely seek to cause harm- have stolen the education system.
Too many parents don't care. We see, during the lockdown, how many parents can't wait to get rid of their kids and get them back in school. No wonder many young people are warped, with parents like that!

In university situations you are dealing with low IQ idiots. The students might display a higher age factor than a fifth grader but still on equal ground with the younger age group. They graduate HS not being able to read or do remedial math. Their higher education is just indoctrination so they remain stupid and ignorant. That statue doesn't offend them because they have no idea what Lincoln did in history or what time period. They've never opened a history book in their lives so what would they know except a bronze statue offends them. Protesting and rebelling and ignorant is no way to go through life.

When "MY RIGHTS" are demanded of any group of people...all rights are lost! 30 years of commie indoctrination by college profs (morons) with no real world experience has resulted in this. College must be torn down and rebuilt by real Americans!

Madison has been a hotbed of violence and communist agitators for many decades. In 1970 violent anarchists set off a bomb in a campus building which killed on research student.
They have a long history of extreme leftist political agitation and violence. Same old, same old.
Tell them "NO!".

The red-diaper doper babies in Madison are loose again. Toss 'em a blunt and something shiny to play with.
