After years of contentious debate, an act of vandalism and a public vote, President William McKinley has lost his home at the center of Arcata Plaza in Humboldt County.

They are going to replace it with an open cesspool and needle suppository.
The propagandist said controversial statue.
SF is due to another great quake....or some such chastisement...
Erasing our history is part of the communist/progressive plan for fundamental transformation of our country.
Some of those progressives are wearing R jerseys.
They hate him because we won the Spanish-American war, twice.
I read that Canton, OH bought the statue for the McKinley Presidential Library.
I can think of a man who was a womanizer, hired prostitutes and beat them, and was alleged to have credulously believed soviet propaganda about American atrocities in a war.
Should his monument(s) come down?
What does mcKinley have to do with Eureka?
McKinley deserves a better place of honor than the filth of SF.

I was gonna say - “Fundamentally-transforming the United States of America” - Manchurian Candidate Barack Hussein Obama.
It’s absurd these people with their revisionist history look at things. McKinley’s policies were fine then and he and the times were a product thereof, yet these Leftists want to erase history like it never happened because they hate the so called outcomes.
Good. It should be in America.
Better a 50MT nuke to completely obliterate the city, and sterilize the land.
San Francisco needs to be “erased.”
McKinley fought in the Civil War, freed the slaves and died while serving his country. These momma’s boys in Humboldt County haven’t done sh!t. Go cry when your latte isn’t hot enough.
McKinley was an enormously important man. He single-handedly set the US on an imperial course, for good or ill. His one decision, in 1898, to hold on to the Philippines put the US in the middle of the great power conflicts in East Asia. That was much more than the fluttering butterfly setting the course of the future by chance. He made a choice, overnight, that set the course of world history.
McKinley and Polk are very underrated presidents. I guess the folks in Humboldt County California hate veterans. So sad.
The last time I was in San Francisco on business, the smell of urine exiting the BART station was overpowering. I had to walk through a tunnel in one of the stations that was lined by homeless sitting upright against the wall and I had to pick my steps so not to stomp their legs accidentally or to trip. Anyone who eats in a restaurant there is crazy - the human waste doesn’t stay on the sidewalk but is tracked into the restaurant where it creates a nice situation for communicable diseases like typhus. and the statue protestors (including some supposed “Indians” who look fairer than the current Mass. senator who took the slot at Harvard Law School intended for a “Native American”)are worried about a statue for a man who fought bravely in the Civil War, tried to serve fairly as President and accomplish a good deal of good. To live in the same country as such ingrates and stupid scum requires a lot of endurance.
Had lunch in Arcata during a tour of NoCal. There was an honest-to-goodness Officer Dangle meter cop on the square! Saw the McKinley staute, viewed the hippie dippies lounging on the grass;aromas of pot and body odors everywhere.
