No chaos in north Texas.
“Do something useful and tear down CNN.”
You took the words right out of my mouth; I’m all FOR tearing CNN down.
First destroy their monuments, then burn their books, incinerate their Bible, shred their founding documents, and then throw the people on the bonfire.
We humans “think” using language. It’s the symbolic system that allows us to reason.
I always question people with such sloppy use of the language... What does that say about their thought processes?
For someone who is "woke" you'd think she would go "natural". Yes, and for
someone who hates white people she seems to eschew black hair and styling.
COMMUNIST NEWS NETWORK
Perhaps - but after twenty-plus years of "Black Liberation Theology" warping that segment of the population, I can take a pretty good guess as to what the answer to the question will be.
They tried everything else and it didn’t work. Now they are trying to foment a race war. Anything to get rid of Trump - the only man in the Country with any power willing to stand up to the RINOs, the Crony Capitalists, the Globalists, the Racists, the Islamists, etc in the best interest of working Americans.
It seems that there is no statue or document that someone admires that someone else doesn’t deem worthy of being destroyed or torn down. Carried to the very extreme,it might lead to having no examples of anything worthwhile to anybody in this country.
Tear down CNN!
I think it is time to start tearing down all monuments world wide that serve as a reminder of how brutal and awful a practice slavery was. The first order of business would be to bulldoze the Roman Colosseum in Rome. What a rorrific reminder of how slaves from England, France, Spain Greece, North Africa were forced to kill each other and Christians were murdered for the entertainment value alone. This disgusting reminder must be erased from the archives of history. Next we must level out the pyramids in Egypt. Just think of all the Hebrew slaves that were forced to toil dragging all those blocks up to create these awful monuments to the Pharaohs. I am sure there are many many more of these terrible reminders of days when people were forced into slavery.
Let’s just erase the entire history of the US right up to the march on Selma. That’s where history will start from now on.
Or we could just ship 13% of the population and 80% of the crime back to Africa.
They are already saying we should limit free speech.
Do they know that would also include them
It was in this situation that Booker T. Washington made his appeal to the Southern White leadership in 1895. Read the speech to appreciate the monstrous lie that has been inculcated in people like the "CNN Commentator":
The liberals are assuring us that our worry—that if we surrender to them on the issue of confederate memorials, they will be emboldened to make even more outrageous demands—isn’t a slippery slope, but a valid concern.
Slippery Slope Fallacy
Explanation
Slippery slope arguments falsely assume that one thing must lead to another. They begin by suggesting that if we do one thing then that will lead to another, and before we know it we’ll be doing something that we don’t want to do. They conclude that we therefore shouldn’t do the first thing. The problem with these arguments is that it is possible to do the first thing that they mention without going on to do the other things; restraint is possible.
Example
(1) If you buy a Green Day album, then next you’ll be buying Buzzcocks albums, and before you know it you’ll be a punk with green hair and everything.
(2) You don’t want to become a punk.
Therefore:
(3) You shouldn’t buy a Green Day album.
If they succeed with this Taliban gambit, it will never end. The communists, socialists and anarchists believe they have their Horst Wessel. They won’t stop until they have dismantled `Amerika’.
Good point! But, those that have, in the past, worn the swastika, tried to kill Americans, Jews, etc. And, a lot of us had parents that fought against it and Imperial Japan! But, the Civil War, and it's artifacts and statues, happened when all of us weren't even thought about being conceived!
