A statue honoring a former governor whose segregationist comments recently came to light will be removed from a Florida courthouse.
But Broward Mayor Barbara Sharief said Tuesday that the county also named after Napoleon Bonaparte Broward isn't likely to be renamed....
....Broward was Florida's governor from 1905-1908 and is best known for the draining of the Everglades.
The statue has been at the courthouse since 1993....

So, who is with me? Get rid of the MLK Jr. memorial? The Lincoln? Washington and Jefferson, too?
Come to think of it, didn't FDR have some racist comments in his past? I have seen a statue of him in DC. Let's move it into storage.
FDR was an anti-Semite. But lefties don’t have a problem with that.
I want MLK taken the #### down everywhere first.
WTF, anything in his name is in a piece of #### neighborhood anyway.
And beating the #### out of prostitutes, while it may be looked to as an act of a true man in these neighborhoods, is disgusting.
If that sounds racist, you know where the report button is.
Only Govt forced segregation that Democrats promote is bad. Everybody freely assembles per the Constitution.
Everybody segregates.
Hmmmph, looks like Jews weren’t the only minorities FDR had a problem with. Gee, my publik skrewl edukashun lets me down again. Go figure.
I didn’t know MLK JR did that...
B.S.
The problem here is the Right won't fight. The Left goes after every conservative historical figure, and holds them to 2017's standards, but the Right never returns the favor. The Right needs to go after the Left's icons.
Remove Franklin D. Roosevelt over Japanese internment.
Remove Margaret Sanger, who espoused eugenics.
Remove Harvey Milk, for having done nothing but get shot.
Etc., etc., etc.

Broward County, Florida—Where the Democrats are so stupid they don’t know how to vote.
Interesting. There is precedent for a politician to drain a large swamp...
Just asking. I know Woodrow Wilson was a bigot. Why should he continue to be interred in our nation’s capital?
JFK was a notorious womanizer and some say addicted to drugs. Does he really deserve such an honored burial site?
