I just saw a John Oliver piece about Kandiss Taylor and her #10 platform item to destroy this:

It's more of a take on her so if you're a fan, I'd skip it.

Lefties wouldn't travel all the way down there to make a point. Kandis meant nothing to them.

There are leftists right there in Georgia. Recall that Biden won the state in 2020, to their everlasting shame.

Hang on -- Biden won because of Fulton county. Not the county where these stones are -- lol.

Do you know Georgia?

Outside of the Peremeter -- not many lefties.

I know enough about Georgia to know that it has roads and highways crisscrossing the state. It's really not a stretch to say that this could have been done by someone from Fulton County. (Not saying it is, because I haven't the slightest idea who did it.)

What is satanic about them?

Quote:
A message consisting of a set of ten guidelines or principles was engraved on the Georgia Guidestones[20] in eight different languages, one language on each face of the four large upright stones. Moving clockwise around the structure from due north, these languages were: English, Spanish, Swahili, Hindi, Hebrew, Arabic, Traditional Chinese, and Russian.

Here is the Wiki page about them.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Georgia_Guidestones


Here is the news link about their destruction.

https://www.foxnews.com/us/georgia-g...-elbert-county


It seems that some people including a failed candidate for Governor in May of 2022 did not like the monument.



"The roadside attraction received renewed attention during Georgia's May 24 gubernatorial primary when third-place Republican candidate Kandiss Taylor claimed the guidestones are satanic and made demolishing them part of her platform."




How ridiculous and what a shame some far Right fools had to do this. Given the violence of the Far Left in tearing down statues that hurt their feelings and now these Far Right idiots blowing this monument up it just goes to show that we cannot have Nice things thanks to these losers.


What a shame.
And what were your thoughts when losers on the left pulled down statues?

Didn't the guide stones promote a global population of only 500 million?
