Native Americans who view the monument as a desecration of land violently stolen from them “...

...Say the people who violently stole it from someone else....

The Reality is, in fact, Europoid Supremacy. All others are here or survive by leave and suffrance of the European immigrants and their progeny. The Euros eventually determined on a republic in which those other arrivals and their progeny and survivors of the original population became immediately or ultimately political equals with the European derived population that had made the land their own.

“”What’s a native American?””

Me! Born right here in the good old USA. I’m as native American as anybody else is.

I’m really kinda sick of all this Native American crap. I’m here in west Texas where the Apache’s dominated. They were a ruthless bunch who would Rape, Torture, enslave and murder those of different tribes. Introduce the horse and they became one of the most powerful tribes in the area, killing as many other tribes as possible to expand their power. They were not these great stewards of the land as we’ve been taught, they rampaged across it destroying everything in their path. They burnt out other tribes. This is history we don’t here about. There were no peacefull tribes, peacefull tribes were destroyed.

” Blow up Mt Rushmore?

Not even in two days could you drill holes and plant charges enough to blow it up.

The terrain behind the monument is rugged.

You ain’t sneaking up there without them knowing.

The whole top of the monument is wired for vibration.

They have cameras everywhere

And what are they going to do, even if they catch violent anarchists up there red handed? Based upon recent experience, the most likely outcome is that the authorities would stand there and watch them blow it up.

This country will soon become like a bull in a stall; no one can make a move for fear of causing offense.

I always wondered, how come FDR never made it? Teddy is there. FDR was a God to the left.

I grew up in Pierre, SD in the 1950”s. My best friend was a full blood Sioux and he claimed to be a descendant of Sitting Bull. He was an amazing artist and gave me a number of sketches of horses he had drawn. Not sure what happened to the pictures.

Islam rides at the front of the Left’s bus these days. To get to black seating you’ve got to go farther to the back, after communists, homosexuals (transgenders now too), abortionists, women, and probably a few others.

Work began under Coolidge, long before FDR was elected.

Nick Tilsen, a member of the Oglala Lakota tribe and the president of a local activist organization called NDN Collective. “It’s an injustice to actively steal Indigenous people’s land....

You mean like the Lakota stole the Black Hills from the Kiowa?

This is Trump country.

I would be more worried about people in the audience than climbers of the monument.
There is a fence around the back of it and camera’s everywhere

I read somewhere a few years ago that Mt. Rushmore is, and has always been, the Park Service's biggest headache.

They don't like to talk about it but I guess that a bunch of different Indian tribes have talked about blowing it up since the monument was in the planning stage.

I would imagine that this new bunch of domestic terrorist running around the country today would like to think they could pull something off like that too.
