George Washington, the guy on the quarter, could soon be facing the ax in San Francisco as surely as his fabled cherry tree.
The president of the San Francisco school board thinks it’s time to consider renaming schools that bear the names of slave owners — including Washington and his friends and fellow presidents Thomas Jefferson and James Monroe.

No....the ONLY sin that exists for commies is slavery. Ever. Murderers are excused, rapists revered as celebrities, rampant sexual sin producing millions of unwanted kids celebrated and lofted as the most important “right” ever.
Lots of sinners out there amongst famous people, even by the Catholic doctrine....but thr only thing that matters to commie libs is if you had slaves.
And more recently, if you are “racist”.

Discover This School
Driving through the heart of the Mission District, it is difficult to miss the rich and vibrant murals of César Chávez Elementary School. Incorporated in these multi-colored images are the core values that this school community strives for: excellence in academic achievement, respect for diversity, and strength in character and personal growth. At César Chávez, every member of our staff and community holds high expectations for all students’ academic success—a ¡sí se puede! philosophy. We do this because we know our work is part of a movement to ensure that all people are treated with dignity and respect and are given opportunities to succeed in life. We recognize and build on our students’ strengths. For many of them, that is the knowledge of another language. We firmly believe that our students deserve the empowerment of biliteracy.
The plantation system was an economic necessity in the agrarian South, and slaves were given direct remuneration for their labor—food, shelter, clothing, medical care, instead of cash. White share croppers were, economically, far worse off than slaves.
The invention of the internal combustion engine and the cotton gin were taking the place of manual labor anyway; slavery was already on its way out. But it was what it was at that time.
At some point, the libtards will no doubt expand the definition of slavery to include wage slaves. Capitalism is the most evil of all, doncha know.
Thus, any capitalist who in the past hired and paid people to perform labor wil be declared eeeevil slavemeisters and willl need to be erased from history.
In the bright utopian future of communism, we shall none of us toil, rather we shall all loll about on silken cushions while our benevolent dictator provides us with $6 cups of veni vicii lo-fat half-caf Starbucks drawn from the sparkling jewel encrusted butts of unicorns...
Ignorance is irrational and emotional. Reality is rational and looks for the truth. They know nothing about the truth of who these men were. These men were not slavers, they were born into slave ownership and in the end most freed the slaves they owned and legally could free. Those that weren’t freed were legally encumbered by the laws of the time.
Should we rename adulterer landmarks too?
(Kennedy,Kennedy,King,Johnson,Clinton,...) Just asking.
Actually, the New Testament admonishes those who would rename landmarks named after people.
So what will the new name of the half black president’s house be??
Chattel slavery was an abomination... but nonetheless let him who is without sin cast the first stone.
Tell ‘em, “That’s okay. After the election, every school will say TRUMP in black and gold.”
Heh heh heh!!!
[We need to have a conversation about this,” Haney said.]
Ok, I’ll start. Shut up and teach!
They may get rid of the “Washington” before they get rid of “Redskins.”
Agreed. They are going to have to rename the Democrat Party.

“…where we closed them down, they were unable to get strikebreakers, or they’d gotten very few. And then all of a sudden yesterday morning, they brought in 220 wetbacks — these are the illegals — from Mexico. Now, there’s no way to defend against that kind of strikebreaking…” Ceasar Chavez
Discrediting the Nation’s founding fathers should be added to the list of justifications to revoke Haney’s US citizenship. No doubt there are others.
Has Mexico had slaves? Has the Catholic Church ever had slaves? Perhaps the city of San Fransissysko will have to get rid of it’s own name. Now what could be it’s new name?
DC does not deserve the name of Washington. District of corruption is a disgrace to our first president’s memory.
They care not a whit about sin - the whole movement is to destroy all history of the seeds that blossomed into America so they can finally destroy the Constitution and enslave the People - ironic, no?????
