remember the Taliban blowing up the Buddhas in Afghanistan?
Damn beat me to that statement.
Overall, the real reason for all of this push to remove Confederate monuments, flags, etc is a push by the democrat party to eliminate their direct ties to slavery, the Civil War, and the KKK.
It is their party that has always been the direct supporter and tied to slavery and suppression of minorities. They now want those ties removed from sight and from history.
Well, following that logic, we need to remove the democrat party as a direct reminder of slavery and oppression. Outlaw the party, remove all monuments, streets, highways, etc bearing a prominent democrat’s name. No more Kennedy freeway, street or drive. No more FDR or Wilson memorial. Remove all democrat references and the party and then we can truly get past the democrat party sins of slavery.
