Tear it down!

Another day, yet another statue of a military hero is reportedly under fire. This figure astride a horse was vandalized with the spray-painted words "Tear It Down."
Who was this historical figure? General Lee? Stonewall Jackson? Nathan Bedford Forrest?
No, this was a figure who hails from the north.
Of France:
The phrase "Tear it Down" was hastily sprayed in black paint across the base of the golden Joan of Arc statue on Decatur Street in the French Quarter sometime earlier this week. It has since been removed, with only the vaguest traces of the paint remaining.Nah, I wouldn't be so sure.The "Tear it Down" tag would seem to relate to the debate surrounding the city's ongoing removal of four Confederate monuments. But the statue of Joan of Arc, a 15th-century military leader, martyr and Catholic saint, hasn't been mentioned in the controversy to this point.
Amy Kirk Duvoisin, the founder of the annual Joan of Arc parade that ceremonially pauses at the statue on the first day of Carnival season, says she's confused by the vandalism.
"Surely, people realize she's not related to American history," she said referring to the French icon.

Because the cowardly politicians and the corrupt butt hurt media didn’t get on board with Trump and condemn “both sides”, the crazy leftist groups think they have free reign to destroy and tear down the country with no consequences.
We have a winner!
A Medieval French Catholic who never saw a black person in her life. Vandals-Stupid is as stupid does
Lincoln statue burned in Chicago, Demands for Washington and Jefferson statue removal. It’s a mad, mad, mad, mad USA.
But she was white and this seems to be what all of this is about.
All these worthless politicians, think they will be insulated from all the mayhem and violence. They are wrong. Look at that democrat idiot who shot those congressmen.
Tear it down!
It’s getting to the point of absurdity. Should we demand that the state of New York change its name because the original colony was named after the Duke of York from those days, who founded the British company that imported slaves from western Africa to English colonies in the Caribbean and subsequently to the American colonies?
WAS IT OVER WHEN THE FRENCH BOMBED PEARL HARBOR!!!???
(had to modify that a bit)
I visited Confucius’ home and grave-site in China last year.
The gravesite and home were, within a few years of his death in 479 BC, consecrated by the Chinese Emperor of the time. The latest gravestone-memorials were erected in the 13th and 14th centuries
In November 1966, after being respected and preserved for nearly 2500 years through countless foreign invasions and change of dynasties, Mao’s Red Guards smashed the tombs, dug up various bodies buried there and smashed the temple on the site.
Seeing it up close and hearing the story really brought home for me how evil the Left is. America is undergoing its own cultural revolution now.
I imagine he is laughing in his cell. His desire for a race war has finally happened.
In the time of chimpanzees I was a monkey
Butane in my veins so I’m out to cut the junkie
With the plastic eyeballs, spray paint the vegetables
Dog food stalls with the beefcake pantyhose
Kill the headlights and put it in neutral
Stock car flamin’ with a loser and the cruise control
Baby’s in Reno with the vitamin D
Got a couple of couches sleep on the love seat
Someone keeps sayin’ I’m insane to complain
About a shotgun wedding and a stain on my shirt
Don’t believe everything that you read
You get a parking violation and a maggot on your sleeve
So shave your face with some mace in the dark
Savin’ all your food stamps and burnin’ down the trailer park
(Yo cut it)
Soy un perdedor
I’m a loser baby so why don’t you kill me?
Soy un perdedor
I’m a loser baby, so why don’t you kill me?
Forces of evil in a bozo nightmare
Banned all the music with a phony gas chamber
Cause one’s got a weasel and the other’s got a flag
One’s got on the pole shove the other in a bag
With the rerun shows and the cocaine nose job
The daytime crap with the folksinger slop
He hung himself with a guitar string
Slap the turkey neck and it’s hangin’ from a pigeon wing
You can’t write if you can’t relate
Trade the cash for the beef for the body for the hate
And my time is a piece of wax fallin’ on a termite
Who’s chokin’ on the splinters
Soy un perdedor
I’m a loser baby so why don’t you kill me?
(Get crazy with the Cheeze Whiz)
Soy un perdedor
I’m a loser baby so why don’t you kill me?
(Drive-by body pierce)
(Yo bring it on down)
Soy
(I’m a driver I’m a winner things are gonna change I can feel it)
Soy un perdedor
I’m a loser baby so why don’t you kill me?
(I can’t believe you)
Soy un perdedor
I’m a loser baby so why don’t you kill me?
Soy un perdedor
I’m a loser baby so why don’t you kill me?
Sprechen Sie Deutche, baby)
Soy un perdedor
I’m a loser baby so why don’t you kill me?
(Know what I’m sayin’?)

Was it over when Robert E. Lee shot down 4 Zeros over Shangri-La Airbase!?
LOL Now that’s a good one.
Well, she was White and THAT is the real crime.
Well, that was certainly true of the Confederate monuments, too. Hell, the centerpiece of black Mardi Gras, the Zulu parade, went right through Lee Circle every year and not once did anyone take notice of the statue in the center.
This stuff is being instigated by outsiders. I hope they end up as chunks of crab bait.
“The confederacy stuff was just low hanging fruit. They’re coming for all whitey and their history. Goal is to end western culture and this country as we know it.”
No more calls, folks. We have a winner.

You guys don’t get it. These crazies don’t want the US to be the new USSR. They are looking to recreate Revolutionary France. Remember the Directorate abolished the Gregorian calendar and decreed that the storming of the Bastille would the first day or Year Zero. All that went before was to be erased.
