Michigan parents are infuriated that the “Hall of Heroes” mural depicting historical figures at South Arbor Charter Academy has been replaced with paintings of Oprah Winfrey, Barack Obama, and other celebrities.

South Arbor Charter Academy in Ypsilanti, Michigan, removed the likes of Albert Einstein, Betsy Ross, Gandhi, astronauts, Mother Teresa, and other accomplished historical figures and replaced their images with those of Oprah, Obama, Steve Jobs, Walt Disney, and J.K. Rowling.

“This is no longer a hall of heroes. Now we have a hall of celebrities,” South Arbor Charter Academy parent Craig Bergman told the media.

School representative Jennifer Hoff said the hall of heroes mural was changed to highlight “modern-day heroes.”

Historically, it is quite typical for a conquering people to replace the vanquished peoples popular figures with their own. We are in the midst of a conquest by the Third World and the Third World wishes to view those they worship. Streets have been renamed, parks and various geographical localities.

Get used to it.

You know you’re in a bad neighborhood where they put up murals to “inspire” the locals.

Didn’t you hear? He won the Nobel Prize!

</sarcasm>

His actual heroic act, of course, is to be able to snow enough people to get into, and stay in, the White House.
