An Antifa mob toppled a statue of Christopher Columbus in the Little Italy neighborhood of Baltimore Saturday night. No police were seen in sight according to video of the mob attack by several hundred anti-American guerrillas. The mob dragged the toppled statue over to the Inner Harbor and tossed it in the water. (Photo/Tweets/Videos) A spokesman for Baltimore Mayor Jack Young basically said the mayor doesn’t give a damn, “Baltimore police “are principally concerned with the preservation of life,” @mayorbcyoung’s spokesman says. “That is sacrosanct. Everything else falls secondary to that, including statues.”

Ronald Reagan dedicated this statue in 1984, in Little Italy! There must not be any Italians left, now that the bLACKS have taken over the city.
This quote by Reagan bears constant repeating:
“ Freedom is a fragile thing and is never more than one generation away from extinction. It is not ours by inheritance; it must be fought for and defended constantly by each generation…”

This same mob of people should be forced to work as slaves or prisoners (either works for me) to rebuild all the monuments they've torn down.

Haven't you ever noticed - especially in Democrat run communities, the police are never around when you need them?
I was told once, back in the late 70's by a student studying Law, that the police's job is not to stop crime or solve crimes, but to manage them. .I told him if I caught a cop 'managing crime' he'd be in jail along with the criminals. He simply tutted at me and said I was unrealistic. If police really made crime go away, the police would be out of a job. Then where would you be when 'little things' needed enforced? The common people need to see the threat to understand the necessity of the way life is managed. It's so much better that way.
Smug, sanctimonious little brown-noser, is what I thought at the time. His professor was a blatant raving Marxist with tenure, and this was his favorite 'little boy'. God help us what they teach nowadays.

But, but, but, blue lives matter, don't you know. They're 'heroes' that we should be celebrating. Police are there to write up reports after the crime is done, and not to protect you. There are too many instances of police standing by as conservatives are hassled, or even worse, assaulted. I'm not condemning all police, but they are union members and unions support democrats. I'm not surprised that there were no cops around. It is a little better here in fly over country, but it's still better to be armed and carry than it is to stake you and your loved ones lives on the police coming to your aid. In Seattle, statues may fall and we can have weeks or CHAZ/CHOP without police action, but take down some LGBTQ flags and they're on it.

They give rioters in Baltimore a lot of room so they can loot and destroy.

If the Baltimore Mayor is more interested in the living he is failing there too.

Cops willing to continue on the Baltimore PD after this should hang up their uniforms for good since they no longer represent law and order. Same goes for police officers on any other force across the country. If you're willing to go along with refusing to provide law and order, if the cause is approved, you're not a police officer/sheriff/deputy/trooper. You're a storage facility rent-a-cop.

The Baltimore Police hung it up for the most part in the aftermath of Freddie Gray and the officially sanctioned "unrest" where not one "demonstrator" was prosecuted. The Republicrat governor is a dithering nebbish, who feels strongly about nothing. He has said that Baltimore is the "Pearl of Maryland".
I'm leaving the Baltimore area and Maryland. I've lived in the state for over 30 years and the time to go is now. The downward slide will only accelerate with the shifting demographics.

That area of Baltimore has been overrun by young brainwashed leftist idiots much like the Fells Point area. The young move in because it's where the action is with bars, trendy shopping, and places to eat. They get married after a while, and have a kid or two, then they realize the city is crap, the crime is ever present, and the schools suck. Since they now have kids, the party scene isn't really all that important anymore, so they move out of the city so the kids can go to decent schools. But there are always replacements of young idiots looking for the cool place to live, so the cycle continues. I ride through some of that area on my way to work, the BLM signs are everywhere. So I'm not surprised. I love it when a crime happens in these areas, and the local news interviews these people. They are always surprised that something like this would happen in this area. It's Baltimore. Crime has always been in this area. It's why your parents don't live there, and why they didn't want you moving there.

I’m kinda surprised that the local mafia didn’t step in and smash some heads to save the statue.

Ordered away by the city leaders, I am certain.
When your city's elected leaders no longer support the laws as written....be afraid. The mob may decide to come for you and your family next.
