You must be a racist. How about Little Richard, Otis Redding and Chuck Berry? Or just paint all the faces black. Yeah, that would be cheaper.

As for the Arabs, that was over in the Middle East. I am talking about what happened here in THIS country, so don't come here with this deflection crap.

The Confederates wanted secession BECAUSE they wanted to keep slavery. They were traitors to the USA as they fired upon the USA.

No, we are not going to blow up Washington Monument. Comparing the Founding Fathers to the Confederates is a false equivalency.
Not according to these guys. For those who say this is nonsense, this is only a start.

So, you support erasing history? When does it stop?

Like I said "this zealotry is getting dangerous" and we are witnessing the demise of the US, seemingly with the blessings of our politicians and corporations... who BTW, will likely become more powerful.

The people of this country are being played like fiddles.

That's what zealotry and fascism bears. There is never enough, and once people get behind one ridiculous ideological meme, they start rolling in like snowballs.

Started out just removing state flags, then statues of confederates, now all traces of the founding fathers... then, they will be free to usher in communism, Marxism, and any flavor of human suppression without a Constitution to stop them. THAT IS what the the end game is. Once the Constitution is gone, we are doomed.



Once the people allow these wackamoles to take power... you'll start seeing monuments to the most absurd things. If a person so much as looks at them wrong, or has the audacity to complain... good luck in the work camps.

Somewhat like the Italians defaced the Sphinx during World War II, by using it for machine-gun practice. And most people thought it was just age, that made its features crumble.

There's a reason Stone Mountain is not better known. It manages to be equally garish and boring.
Sadly, Georgians seem to be stuck with it. I don't doubt the cost of obliterating it is prohibitive.

This^^. It's a slippery slope and if you think things are ugly now - well, fascism shows no tolerance and wants to silence all who disagree. This is still a free county. For now.

Sounds good to me considering every confederate was a Democrat, as were the Racist Woodrow Wilson and FDR. The Hypocrisy of these Progressive Democrat Heros is dumbfounding.
