I’m sorry but if Trump doesn’t stop that with National Guards he’s making a mistake.

We need to start pulling down the statues of Lenin.

Mass protests in front of the Twitter and Facebook offices.

Tucker Carlson, just did a live feed showing police surrounding the statue and the ropes were gone from it.

I am glad cops are stopping it in but yes send the national guard in to start protecting these things. Have the national guard at all the statues. That should have happened in a lot of States a long time ago.

Oh, they finally got around to him, huh? Do they even know who he is? They sure don’t seem to know who Abraham Lincoln nor Ulysses S. Grant were.

Where’s the tear gas and rubber bullets? I am very disappointed. These people’s lives do not matter.

If it’s federal property, that is a perfectly good use of the Guard for federal purposes, no matter what Mayor Bow Wow says.

Yeah man start acting like we have actual laws

People are getting assaulted all over the place and nothing happens. Isn’t assaulting somebody just because of their beliefs a federal crime? Or just because of their color?

of course whites are the only people stupid enough to assault other whites because of their race. I don’t even know what to say anymore.

Maybe these white kids think they’re black.

It is not enough that this should be stopped. Those attempting it should be arrested and tried.

I would recommend public hangings for treason, since this is basically a revolution taking place, but that’s just me.
