"Let's put that story in there as well!" "The very pants I was returning! It's perfect irony!"

[SaveFerris]

You know, that one I could actually support.

Followed immediately by the arrest and deportation of Bill DeFakeo Commie.

Those who want to eliminated our history - flags, statues, now names - posses the ISIS mentality of hate and destruction, of destroying everything.

[livius]

I always wondered how that had happened - it was nice and greenish when I was growing up. I must say that it gets your attention now, though!

Which brings us to another thing: some of these statues that they are tearing down are really magnificent pieces of monumental art. They will be a great loss to the streetscape.

[sauropod]

I’m sorry. DiBlabbio is an arsehole.

[sauropod]

You and me both.

BTW, nice to “see” you.

They will probably rename the George Washington Bridge.

[Vaquero]

“Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture has been repainted, every statue and street building has been renamed, every date has been altered. And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is always right.”

George Orwell, Nineteen Eighty-Four

[GreyFriar]

And let us remember that Woodrow Wilson introduced segregation into the Federal government in Washington, DC after he became president. He had a wholesale firing of Black employees from all supervisory jobs and many other positions.

I recommend that people demand that the Woodrow Wilson bridge between Virginia, Maryland and DC be torn down! Don’t rename it, destroy it!

“Dave, you’re right. I am no longer going to pay my NYS taxes in protest of this racial history.”

Can you imagine the gov of the slave state of New York and the mayor of the slave city of New York City responses if good people like you refused to pay NYS and/or NYC taxes. Then you proceeded to tear down any signs or statues which had the slave trader Duke of York’s name on them.

Out here in Californicator land, we could to the same to any Spanish named city because of the enslavement of the native population from San Diego, to LA, to San Jose, Santa Clara, San Francisco and Sacramento by the evil Spanish Conquerors.
Then, we could refuse to pay our taxes and create a new state in areas without the enslavement of natives.
