A statue to Thomas Jefferson on the lawn of the University of Virginia was defaced with the words 'racist' and 'rapist' early on Friday morning, just before the start of celebrations marking the 275th anniversary of his birth.
A UVA spokesman said: 'The university is disappointed that individuals vandalized the statue of Thomas Jefferson on the Lawn on the day that we honor his contributions to our University and to our democracy.
'UVA welcomes open and civil discourse on such important issues. However, acts of vandalism do not contribute to meaningful discussion.
'Crews from Facilities Management are removing the vandalism, and the University Police Department is investigating the incident.'

3/4 White.
Some of the largest slave owners in the South were black and they owned Whites like Sally and blacks.
Don't expect those students too I is the truth.
“Activists”? They are low-life vandals who are given a sense of credibility by the media in part by the way the media elevates their status by describing these clowns as “activists”.
find um , fix um
They should find these people and HANG THEM.
ENOUGH OF THIS GARBAGE!!
Being White is treated as the new Original Sin.
George Washington was the Founding Father of the country they are endeavoring to annihilate.
“Thomas, are there days when you are away from your estate, and Sally is there?”
“Yes Randolph, every Wednesday, why?”
America would be profoundly different if slavery had never happened.
If the UVA leftists were to follow their true course of “illogic” to its end, then not only the statues but UVA and Monticello house and everything up there should be defaced and they should demand that the university itself be closed and burned down. After all, the university was founded by a “rapist and a racist”, there-for its very existence stands as a enduring, mocking monument against the struggling peoples of color and all women, and stuff./S
I wonder what the response would be to a snot nosed SJW type attending that university that they are hypocrites for going to a university founded by such “an evil man” as they were gaining knowledge from the root of such a “poisonous tree”/S
The dumb animals can’t even do vandal nor graffiti right. And were too STUPID to understand NO statue ever was capable of being either racist or rapist.Things that stupid ought not be trusted with anything important -couldn’t even handle the burn pit duty or PLO honorably.
Actually the stupidest thing Jefferson ever did was write a letter to a
church that atheists used to create a flimsy non existent Constitutional
“Separation of Church and State”
You might want to consider a better way of putting that ....
"Activists"? Is that what they are calling vandals these days?
Jefferson did not free his slaves, at least he didn’t free the bulk of them. Jefferson owned close to 700 slaves over his life time. He freed only 10 of them. Five were freed while he was alive and the other five were freed, per his will, after his death. The remaining slaves at Monticello and the other Jefferson estates were sold shortly after his death to pay off his debts.
Maybe they should not have been purchased as slaves and transported to colonies. I suspect the ones that sailed here in slave ships would have really preferred to stay in Africa.
Need to pound the perps into the ground, then dig their sorry asses up and extradite them to South Africa!
Activists, more like snowflakes who were brainwashed by the anti American left. They fail to realize if there dream ever comes true for a new utopia these useful idiots will be the first with their heads on sticks by the very people they represent
on the day that we honor his contributions to our University and to our democracy.
This from a University. We do not have a democracy. Is History and Civics no longer taught in our schools?
It’s not about Jefferson. It’s all about hating Whitey and the Christian foundations of this country, and hating the country.
