Well, this certainly is a sad metaphor about the state of the country, the Constitution, and the Bill of Rights today.

Oops. So will they reconstruct it or just continue to demolish American history like the libs have been continually doing?

Progress.

It's what progressives do.

Out with the old, in with the new, at all costs, for maximum gain.

I’m sure that Sid Blumenthal’s brother will accept full responsibility for obtainng the contract that allowed his company to demolish this famous landmark.

That’s where the Second Amendment came from? Down with it, they say!

I drove by it when the demo was going on. Thought it was a shame to tear down a lime stone structure but understand it’s prime real estate that is privately owned. Kind of a Humpty Dumpty situation now. I can’t image how you would go about rebuilding half a 2 1/2 story stone building.

That definitely does NOT look like late 18th century construction to me.

Back in 1988, I did a bit of plumbing installation work on a home of similar vintage in Rhode Island.

Assuming it is, it was already a car lot. Obviously no one cared enough to preserve it properly.
