Not many people realize Che guevara’s Grandparents were wealthy Americans who emigrated from the USA to Argentina .
They did that because at the time that was where all the real millionaires were . in Argentina.
I nominate Ray “School Bus” Nagin.
If it was up to me in New Orleans, I’d put up a staue to the man who defeated Lee, the American patriot Ulysses Grant.
Once the Soetoro Lie-Berry is built in Chicago, it should immediately be torn down so we can finally heal from the damaging decade of Obama. We need to wipe out the entire history of our nation of the vile damage this man did to our country. /sarcastic for those too sensitive to get the joke....
General Lee will never be disgraced.
Robert E Lee was one of the most honorable men in history.
I vote for Assata Shakur, or any of the other African cop killers. That’s what the majority of the residents of NOLA really admire.
Mao? Pol Pot? Maduro?
Rafael Cruz? (nah)
Lee Harvey Oswald? (not much support)
Or, maybe, to commemorate three favorite themes of the left (smeared Bush with Katrina, created and sustained ISIS, loves to foster all manner of sexual perversion/porn):
Katrina Isis
(I think she’s a porn actress, although I would have no way of knowing for sure)
Nagin with his phony medals riding dirty on top of a bus
When I was going to college back in Fresno it was the height of Caesar Chavez mania. Everything in the state was being named for Chavez and the put a stupid statue of him up on the grounds. Knowing libs, I say either Trayvon Martin or St Brown of Furgeson.
I think it is disgraceful to remove historical objects which reflect a time in history. They southerners were fighting for a cause they believed in, and because they lost the winners get to tear down the monuments...happens in every country, sorry to see it happen here.
Why are you southerners caving to the liberals?
The WAR is over.
Do we hate the Russians (Cold War)
Do we hate the Japanese?
Do we hate the Vietnamese/Chinese?
Do we hate the North Koreans or Germans? (well maybe)
The purge of Southern Symbols like the Confederate Battle Flag and statues of Confederate leaders is a disgrace to history.
We should NEVER FORGET the War Between the States.
But we must ALWAYS remember that it wasn’t a war against an evil empire, Nazis, Fascists, Imperialists, or Communists. It was against our brothers and sisters. Our aunts and uncles. Our fellow Americans. Against our very union.
The South lost. Surrendered. Accepted defeat. Slavery was abolished. The Union was saved.
Isn’t that ENOUGH? Is humiliation of history necessary? Flags and statues remained for ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY YEARS, but NOW they must be purged from society? WHY NOW?
Because political correctness has run a muck. Political Correctness is a cancer on our society worse than slavery was. It must be DEFEATED by not giving in to it’s demands.
If some people are offended by Confederate symbols, well TOO BAD. You do not have a right to not be offended. In other words a double negative makes a positive, so you have the right to be offended.
Full disclosure. I am a YANKEE.
My direct ancestors settled in Long Island before 1686. I live in Enfield, NY established in 1804, my direct family line settled here in 1806. I was born in New York and have lived in New York State my entire life. I have no southern roots or relatives.
I am just defending history.
Who’ll Replace the Disgraced Robert E. Lee...
Disgraced? Disgraced? What kind of communist, revisionist Bullshit is this? Disgraced, my ass.
Trayvon Martin
Any of the LIB heroes: Dr josef mengele, che guevara, margaret sanger, fidel castro, pol pot, stalin, mao, jimmah carter (add any LIB loser you can think of).
But I think Charles Deslondes, leader of the 1811 uprising, would probably be a more likely choice, given the current mood.
“The Rifleman: The Sheridan Story”
One of the best episode of any western, ever.
