University of Washington students pushing for the removal of the campus' George Washington statue is one of many instances of college students targeting the United States' founding father, Campus Reform correspondent Justin Brascher said on Tuesday.
"This is just another further example of how we as a society cannot seem to separate the good that somebody has done from the evil. This particular petition was brought forth by one of the student unions on campus and has actually been adopted by the school newspaper," Brascher told "Fox & Friends."

I think they should change the name of the State.
Washington is no name for a State. The man owned slaves for kee ryst sake.
It should be named Malcolm X State or Mumia Abu-Jamal State.
Or maybe Ernesto "Che" Guevara State

Perfect analogy, OP. We’re being ruled by a bunch of selfish adolescents who thrive on envy, hatred, “compassion” without responsibility, and instant gratification. And their only god is themselves.

When are adults going to step up in these liberal states and start pushing back? This is insane.

Washington is literally the most important American in history. That’s not an opinion, this country would not exist if he had not survived the revolution. The portion of the constitution dedicated to structuring the presidency was left intentionally vague because the framers intended for Washington to flesh it out. He held the country together through the greatest adversity you could imagine. His achievements alone make him number one. He impressed the French so much they bankrupted themselves to help us win the war. He was the only commander in chief throughout the whole revolution. He presided over the constitutional convention. He denied power every time it was offered and would only accept when he was told no other man could fill the position and even then he didn’t intend to stay in power long. He bankrupted himself funding the revolution. He couldn’t even afford to attend his own inauguration and had to take out a loan to finance the trip. He is the only unanimously elected president, TWICE. He is the only independent president. He built this country from a collection of self interested individuals and inspired them to something greater. Washington is bar none the most important figure in American history and if you can’t look at a statue of him then you’re not American.

It will be interesting to see who they choose to replace all of the founders of this country in the history books. There must have been one or two good people who they deem worthy of not canceling.

Change your name to 'Losers' first, then we can talk.

Give them a participation trophy for participating in a protest and send them home - after telling them "No."

College kids are really stupid. Not educated at all.

OP nails it. These kids are BRATS, the products of parents who themselves were successfully brainwashed in school and their own social circles. Garbage in, garbage out. The educational system is filled with them, top to bottom, administrators to the youngest teachers. This pandemic has presented the perfect opportunity to kneecap the whole lot of them and get back to education, not indoctrination.

Will none of these schools just say 'NO!' and 'Grow the F up!'. We all have bones to pick with our forebears - so what. Learn the lessons history teaches. Repeat what is good, avoid their sins, and admire what is admirable. We have taught the last few generations to be intolerant and opened ourselves to much more violence than BLM ever dreamed of. The silent majority is poised to erupt ballistically.

Instead of institutes of higher learning, colleges are a refuge of hate and ignorance. Our educational system is so broken.

They don’t call the quad in the center of campus Red Square for nothing, you know.

One of the greatest men in all of human history, and these low grade, propagandized fools can't grasp that.

Since when did the adolescents start running the country?
How about instead of removing Washington, they just dissolve the childish student union.

Progressive indoctrination begins in k=12, remember that theses same colleges and universities are where the so called teachers come from. They are only continuing what is going on in k-12.

I believe a portion of the tax that the state extorts from John Q Public goes to these bastions of indoctrination . Therefore I boldly suggest that we the people have the final say as to the presence of these time tested memorial monuments to great Americans. They stay,
These brats better wise up fast before they continue groveling for government handouts to support their next to worthless degrees.

#1, agree. If they can't handle the statue, they can't handle the name of their own University or their State's name either.
It must be horrible to see that name on their diploma hanging on their wall, right?

I was a pretty good critical thinker before I went to college. My professors helped me to hone that skill. I was simply taught subjects, not what to think. Boy, how times have changed. It is funny that liberals accuse conservatives of being mind-numbed robots who march in lockstep with our leaders. Today's liberal college professors and students don't have an original thought between a huge lecture hall full of them.

Hey, lets just do away with all statues.
And we can rename all building "Bldg 1", "Bldg 2", etc, etc.
And colleges should just be named after the state they are in (California College #1, California College #2, etc, etc) based on when they were founded.
And don't waste anyone's time teaching history any more. It's all racist I tell you. Racist!!! So is math, English, science -- it's all a bunch of white supremist indoctrination!!! /sarcasm off
Yeah, when all hell breaks lose, these snowflakes are quickly going to discover that mommy's basement won't give them any protection!!!

These "students" don't have classes to attend, studying to do, exams to take? Have they ever been told "no"?
Ever?

The entire cancel culture movement reminds me of a spoiled brat kid, doing anything they can for attention with useless parents defending them with one ridiculous excuse after another trying to validate somehow.
