Over the last few weeks we've seen the wanton and mindless destruction of American symbols and icons. The truth is that the fabric of America is being destroyed and it is be intention. A new original sin has been established- any- and I mean any- connection to anyone who might have owned slaves, or knew anyone who owned slaves and curiously, even those who gave their lives to end slavery.
Boston has voted to take down the Emancipation statue. It features Abraham Lincoln and a newly freed slave rising from his now broken shackles. The statue was paid for largely by newly freed slaves.
Just after Lincoln's death, the commission had received an intriguing request from a former slave, who sent the commission $5 -- her first earnings as a free woman -- to help build a monument to Lincoln, "the best friend the colored people ever had."No one has asked the descendants about their feelings in regard to this....
This statue, which still stands in Lincoln Park, was erected with contributions from hundreds of former slaves who wanted to pay tribute to the man who had proclaimed their freedom in 1863.
In all the fervor to take down icons and institutions, there is one institution heavy with the original sin of slavery, racism and bigotry and needs to be toppled.
The democrat party.
There is hardly anything with a greater history of racism than the democrat party.
KKK, you say?
It was founded on part by democrats.
One historian confirmed there’s a historic link between the Democrats and the KKK: Many angry Southern whites during the 1860s and 1870s were Democrats, and some joined the KKK.democrats fought those who sought to end slavery
Its members waged an underground campaign of intimidation and violence directed at white and Black Republican leaders.Some things never change. democrats racially assaulted Sen. Tim Scott:
The democrat party is home to the only KKK "Exalted Cyclops" to ever serve in Congress- Robert Byrd.Sen. Tim Scott, R-S.C., told "The Story" Tuesday that "liberal Democrats" were responsible for the offensive voicemail messages he received at the height of his push for police reform.
Scott, the lone black Republican senator, played the messages for his Republican colleagues during a closed-door lunch last week. "We had dozens --- more than a dozen of them," Scott told host Martha MacCallum. "I only played two of them, which were the most racially offensive comments from liberals in this country. They called to say that I was in their crosshairs.
"It was so profanity-laced, you can't play five seconds of those videos on your show because there are that many f-bombs, the n-word -- by liberal Democrats -- causing a stir in my office, threatening my life. It is the most audacious, repugnant behavior I've seen in a very long time."
Democrats, including Byrd and Al Gore Sr. endeavored to stop the 1964 Civil Rights bill from passage. Gore Sr. even filibustered it.
Ever heard of the "Fulbright Scholarship"? It's named after William Fulbright. Fulbright was a signatory to the Southern Manifesto, along with 98 other democrats:

SMDH. Idiots. The ones who demanded it and the ones who voted to take it down.
bkmk
Antifa and BLM need to be destroyed. Their leaders hunted down and killed like the dogs that they are. Their bodies gibbeted as a warning to others.
That would be a lot of the corporate pathological mid management at big tech too...
I’d love to see Coeur d’Alene, Idaho buy the statue and give it a prominent location in the city.
