You can see where this is headed. Freedom of speech, assembly, religion, etc, etc. were concepts supported by the racists who created the Constitution. Throw them out.

Ugly times are ahead for Americans.

Legacy is correct. Move them to a museum, use them as part of memorials and education. Teach people the good and the bad of the south, teach them our history, what makes us who we are today. Remove them from the public square, remove them from the hands of people that mix it up with hate, bigotry, white supremacism, neo-Nazis, and all. Until it is removed, Trump, Republicans, and conservatives will be tarred with the inseparable hate and violence of these groups. Sad thing is, these were all Dems years ago, this is the product of Democrats and never really part of the Republican party. Time to clean house.

Dumping...is a winner for everyone

You are erasing history and becoming a tool for the fascists who want to bring us the Orwellian world you advocate.

As one really together black woman stated on a CBS interview to another idiot shill, "I wasn't born back then and you wasn't either."

You are an immoral slob. You, we, are responsible for the moral choices we make, today, and going forward. Understand the evils of the past requires both a knowledge and understanding of history and moral sense, which most folks get from the Bible, Old or New Testament. I'll allow for Platonists, Aristotelians, Confuscionists, and Buddhists, but I sincerely doubt many here are deeply schooled in those systems of thought.

Slave owning white men wrote the Constitution. Destroying the US Constitution is what is at the bottom of this.

One of our founding fathers and the founding hero of the democratic party was Jefferson. He was a slaveholder, and worse, an alcoholic and degenerate wastral whose appetites kept him so far in debt he could not afford to think about ending slavery.

We begin with the Jefferson memorial as the symbol of all the evil that you oppose.

You are a pandering fool.

Dumping the Confederate flag and hero-worshipping statues is a winner for everyone,

No, it's not.

There are plenty of Democrats and Independents who are taking note if these shenanigans, and the attempt to exploit the country due to the actions of a few deranged individuals.

Tearing down statues to military heroes in the South is not winning for anyone, except for the narrow constituencies being pandered to.

This doesn't end well for Democrats...

The left is calling for it. It isn’t a joke. Statues are being vandalized by mobs! The Lincoln Memorial was vandalized.

And during the same period of time, Muslims enslaved millions of Europeans.

The Left is trying to push the Right into violence, then accuse of them of starting the violence and insisting that they must respond in kind.

Very similar to how they say nothing when the Little Korean Fat Boy threatens the U.S., but decry us as "warmongers" if we answer back in the same way. Plus, they know the "media" have their back...

Don’t worry, the Dem fundraising will soar now that they have convinced their Base that President Trump is really a Racist as are his Supporters.

They love to fundraise off death and destruction.
Works every time.

DNC fundraising is WAY DOWN?
What with “leaders”, like Ellison, Pelosi and Schumer, how the hell do they expect to attract flies much less voters or folks hard earned money.
Course unless you are some liberal crazy in Nancy’s orbit.

I think its worse than that. They've alienated the patriots and over half of the nation with their false charges. Attacking the founding fathers is symptomatic of that.

I do not think this tack by the dems is designed to unite any
one but the crazies.
I just hope the crazies are STILL a minor party and that reasonable thinkers see it for what it is.
