Remember a few years ago when Trump suggested that if the left started tearing down historic statues that eventually they would come for people like Lincoln and Washington? Remember how people in the media scoffed at the idea?

Well, here we are. This is happening, just as Trump predicted.

The city of Chicago is reviewing statues which might ‘offend’ people and Lincoln and Washington are on the list.

Actually it's Nikki Haley who started this crap when she started erasing Confederate history by removing statues of great men and the flag they proudly fought for. Trump knew this would trickle over to our founders and great presidents like Washington and Lincoln and he was right.

For all of her flaws, Nikki Haley didn’t start this. Georgia changed its flag in 2001 (14 years before Nikki Haley had the flag removed in South Carolina).

There were efforts dating at the exact same time (2001) to change the flag in Mississippi (they held out until this year).

The NAACP had been boycotting South Carolina for 15 years before the flag was finally removed.

Just as the left can’t be allowed to re-write history, nor can you in trying to pin this all on one person.

Actually, offend freely.

When some woke twit says they’re offended smile and say “You’re welcome!” Or “How may I offend you more?”

Maybe they should be more concerned with the murderous inbreds plaguing their city instead of inanimate statues.

This all started with the all Confederate BS. It is just a natural extension that many failed to see. It will get worse if we don’t stop up. Of course that would mean defending the West and even whites(oh the horrors!).

I see a Leif Erickson statue is on the DEMS list in Chicago for removal. He landed 1100 years ago. Huh? I have always wondered why Vikings gets a pass from the DEMs as a mascot name. Maybe Vikings will soon be targeted.
