Stolen from Africa...brought to America.

A plaque in Audubon Park honoring the Buffalo Soldiers was vandalized Wednesday morning (May 2), the day after a Mid-City statue commemorating Charles Didier Dreux, who was the first Confederate field officer killed in the Civil War, was defaced.
The Buffalo Soldiers were all-black cavalries, led mostly by white officers, who are best known for fighting in military campaigns against Native American tribes in the late 1800s.
The Audubon Park plaque reads, "The name "Buffalo Soldiers" was given to them by the Plains Indians. They gained respect from the Indians because of their fighting spirit, stamina, courage, and the similarity of their hair to the buffalo."
On Wednesday, the plaque had been spray painted with a red anarchy symbol and a message on the pavement in front of the plaque read "native genocide."

I guess Buffalo soldiers are sell out Uncle Toms now.
perhaps if they remove the statue...
I would be in favor of the death penalty for anyone caught intentionally defacing a public statue.
That might stop these children from their “resistance.”
Gotta take down all statues and monuments and gravestones, too.
Democrats = America’s ISIS.
Oh the irony if it were done by a dreadlock Rasta.

Since they also defaced a Confederate Hero, It wasn't White Supremacists, The Nazi Party or the KKK which did this.
Sounds like the Black lives matter and Antifa slugs to me.
Leftists are deranged.
...and the Tuskegee Airmen?
Can’t think of a Buffalo soldier without thinking of a dreadlock Rasta.
Takes too long. Hang them on the spot.
It was antifa, they left their calling card, I mean graffiti behind.
Indians vs. Blacks
To be followed by Blacks vs. Hispanics
The Democrat Party will be torn to shreds along its racial fault lines.
Ah, Tuskegee Airmen. Some more Uncle Tom sellouts to the white man.
It doesn’t matter. They will still vote democrat.
I’ve a ball cap of the 332nd Fighter Group given me by one of their number.
Cool! Did he sign it for ya?
***a message on the pavement in front of the plaque read “native genocide.”***
Well, many of the tribes of the High Plains did make treaties with the CSA and fought for the South in the Civil War.
The Dreux monument was vandalized in 2017 also when the nose of the bust was chiseled off.
I strongly suspect white Antifa scum to be responsible for all of this.
I thought that was mostly Cherokee and members of the other of the Five Civilized Tribes as opposed to the Comanches, Apaches and Kiowa Nations.
Thanks.
