You are joking, right? If someone on our side tried to do something like that, the police will make you look like a piece of Swiss cheese. They would not bother to bury you, they would just ship you to the foundry to be melted down.

If you don't believe that and want proof, look no further than our Attorney General, Jeff Sessions. People trying to attend lectures at Berkley had the hell beat out of them while the police looked on and did nothing to prevent it. Trump supporters at support Trump rallies were assaulted time and time again while the police stood around and did nothing. And then, Sessions' buddies got their feathers ruffled and feelings hurt and Jeff Sessions is johnny on the spot opening violations of civil rights investigations. The facts speak for themselves.

What business is it for an Asian (”Loan Tran”) to pull down a Confederate statue, which had nothing to do with her? This smells strongly of Soros or similar payoffs being given to useless idiots like this to start up trouble.

This entire Antifa vs. "alt-right" thing does have a European feel to it.

So when is Sessions going to open an investigation into Antifa, and go after them?

Obviously no one has objected to the statue of Muhammad in the Supreme Court Building.

Everyone those police officers standing at the door are NOT doing their jobs.... Every last one them should be fired. I count at least 6.

Durham police later said they monitored the protests to make sure they were “safe” but did not interfere with the statue toppling because it happened on county property.

1) How are they going to make sure people are safe from a distance?

2) Did anyone bother calling the county police?

3) How long did this incident last?

4) How can the police do their job because per their spokesman it’s “county lines”.

“Because this incident occurred on county property, where county law enforcement officials were staffed, no arrests were made by DPD officers,”

Oh yeah those pesky county lines. Yeah right as if you let that stopped the police in the past when an active crime is in the process of being committed.

Total horse $hit!... Every last one of them should be fired.

When will enough be enough? First it was the Confederate flag, now statues. When will it be enough to satisfy the protesters. (Answer- never)

Well, you can read off lists of riot after riot, attack after attack from both Antics and Black Lives Matter and NOTHING has been done. NOTHING!

The group that met Monday say their purpose is to “smash white supremacy.”

There is the truth of the matter. To them, everything is tinged with whiteness and they want to destroy white culture, white institutions and white people. That racial hatred will not die until it is resolved by CW2.

So this is what it has come to. Leftists are allowed to destroy public property while the police stand idly by and do nothing. I guess laws are only for conservatives.

Oh I'm so sure Sessions is doing something super duper secret behind the scenes. We're going to see results any day now.

and that is why I am so frigging pissed off.
My son said if the cops won;t do anything then let us marines out for 24 hours in civilian clothes and we will clear them out so much they will never want to have another protest.

So somebody named TRAN, probably an NVA or VIET CONG sympathizer, decides to change AMERICAN HISTORY and the police and sheriffs departments are OK with that?
The MEN on both sides of that conflict fought BRAVELY and HONORABLY for what they believed in.
(more than I can say about our current police and sheriffs).
So now days a son or daughter of Ho Chi Minh can just tell us he or she doesn’t like our history and our memorials to the BRAVE AMERICANS, both BLUE AND BUTTERNUT who died in the fiercest, most bloody conflict in our nations history?
And it’s OK for a SLOPE HEAD transplant to tear down our war memorials to these BRAVE, HONORABLE, GREAT MEN.

my, my; how our once great nation has fallen.
And I am a GODDAMN YANKEE!!!!

Loan Tran should move back to the loving embrace of communist Vietnam if white history and its monuments offend her. I would pull down Ho Chi Minh if I could.
