Hopefully, thunderstorms will start moving in, I'm sure the Antifa rioters could use a bath.

This wasn't an "antifa riot"...... it was a student protest.

They shouldn't have toppled the statue....that was over the top; but so is your Alex Jones style heading on this thread.

I'm not sad that the statue is gone - statues like these belong in museums along with exhibits to remind us of mistakes of the past, not in prominent public places to mock people of a past they were victimized by

For the record I see both sides of issues like these. I understand why they're controversial, but I also see the historic value.

What I don't agree with, is that people can get away with destroying property just because they do not agree with it. We all know nothing will happen to these protesters, and that's not right. It sets a terrible precedent.
