They smell the blood in the water.
Sam Houston was pro Union and against secession.
Sam Houston was the only Southern Governor who opposed breaking from America and joining the Confederacy. He spent the last year of his life under House Arrest, and he died thinking his life was a failure....all because his beloved Texas broke from America and joined the Confederates.
Antifa had better be prepared for the fight of their lives, if they intend to remove any monument to Sam Houston in Texas.
I know it’s just a movie, and I am OLD enough to have been taught our country’s TRUE History but having just watched, ‘The Alamo’ again, I disagree!
Sam Houston made all the right choices at a critical juncture! God Bless Him!
WTF is WRONG with these brainwashed Socialists? How on Earth can they think they’d be part of The Ruling Class, or on the top of the heap, should they get their wish to destroy America?
They. Are. Puppets. Collateral Damage. Cannon Fodder.
P.S. But don’t tell them, LOL!
Michelle Obama’s face is gonna look real nice on the $1 bill — just as soon as we get rid of the slave owner who is currently occupying her spot!
I would like to see them try to remove the Huntsville monument. HA!! It’s 25 tons of steel and concrete.

Sam Houston was a HERO of the first order.
There will be a FIGHT in Houston, if/when they try taking this statue down.
First they start with the Confederate Statues, now they will go after Texas history.

What gets me is the Lefts feeling about our history, considering that most of them are decedents of those who migrated here in the late 1800’s and early 1900’s. Those Ellis Island legal immigrants. Its like asking Italy to remove all those Roman era statues. I probably have Roman slave blood, but who cares? I’m not going to whine about it and ask for the Colosseum to be bull dozed because some ancient relative of mine was fed to the lions. There are peoiple out there who are worst than terrorists, they are deviding us to destroy us and start a new country. They’ll call it Utopia and ship anyone who disagrees with them to Northern Alaska to work in the gold and Uranium mines. Then they’ll be happy.
If they succeed with this, next they will demand that the City be renamed Santa Ana or Vera Cruz Del Norte or something.
Don’t Mess With Houston!
Here is a thread from three days ago about the Sam Houston removal.

Texas Antifa to rally against statue of Sam Houston on June 10

Governor Abbott isnt in favor of pansy approaches and might have something to say if the city tried to move Sam.
But they are missing something important. There are other reminders of slavery that should also be removed. Martin Luther King was one of the leaders in the fight against the Democrat’s Jim Crow laws and the segregation they enforced. But that reminds anyone that knows this of the reality of segregation, which was imposed by the Democrats when the Union took away their slaves! As a constant reminder of slavery and Jim Crow the statues of Martin Luther King should be removed, the schools named after him should be renamed to something that won’t bring slavery to the mind all the time and streets named after him should be also renamed.
As well, a statue that mentions Crispus Attucks, a slave who fought for freedom in the American Revolution triggered me because he was a slave. The agonies of slavery surged back into my mind! He thus reminds of daily of that evil institution. Therefore, the statue should be removed.
There are lots more cases but I think all will recognize the need to do a thorough cleansing of the land for these offensive statues and reminders of a great sin in America’s past!
Antifa needs to be crushed. Literally, physically crushed.
Or, if we don’t want to go that far, people who oppose them need to stand up to them, and those in authority need to learn how to say, “No.” Let them throw their tantrums and, if they get out of hand, then resort to my first proposal.
What person in their right mind wants to live in a country where Antifa numbskulls have any say?
Evidently, they don’t know the history of Sam Houston.
Well, next thing is to rename Houston (city) to say .... Sh!thole.
I agree. Take down that statue of a Unionist and put up a monument to Nathan Bedford Forrest, instead.
That would show those Yankees up in Washington.
