Students at the University of Wisconsin-Madison are demanding that the university remove and replace a statue of Abraham Lincoln. "Many UW-Madison students wait to take their picture on the lap of the Abe Lincoln statue atop Bascom Hill when they graduate," a Change.org petition states. "However, few know how this statue got to the top of the hill, and who put it there." "few know how this statue got to the top of the hill, and who put it there"

I remember when the Left mocked out for pointing out based on the purity standards Washington, Jefferson, and yes Lincoln needed to go too. Don't tell the snowflakes at Univ of Wisconsin that their football stadium Camp Randall was named after then Union training camp at the site. I am sure a most of the Union troops training held the same "problematic" views as Lincoln.

Change.org needs to be ‘cancelled’. Maybe a RICO investigation is in order.

It's so Predicable. First it was Confederates, then slave owners (including Washington who freed his slaves). Now it is Lincoln who did the emancipation proclamation declaring them free in the North and ultimately in the south.

Notice the Progression.

Next comes Whites "Because all Whites are Racists and African-Americans can't be". First with White Republicans and then the Democrat's statues will go as well.

The goal is to get rid of America and become Socialist or better yet Communism if they can get it. And they will not stop with the violence as they are too far along the way.

Yep, I said it years ago myself, and I am no fan of The Confederacy.

Students?

I thought they were all home due to ‘Ronavirus. Why are they on the campus at all in late June?

""However, few know how this statue got to the top of the hill, and who put it there.""

So go do some freaking research and find out, you morons. Lazy m-f'ers.

They better leave Abe alone.

James Madison owned slaves. Need to change the name of the city.

And these idiots will be given college degrees - having been made immensely stupid by their time attending the institution being taught by professors that are entirely clueless. These institutions impart no useful knowledge and certainly no wisdom to the young minds that attend them.
