“Can someone tell me who Father Junipero Serra is and why was his statue toppled? Thanks.”
He was a Spanish Franciscan priest (missionary) in 16th century California. He is credited with founding most of the California missions. His statue was toppled because it was allowed to be.
Why was it allowed to be toppled?
Where is the Christian outcry against it? Maybe I missed that too.
I guess it is true that they will come for the churches next. (realizing they have already come for the Church near the White House and this statue).
The Left has had its sights on Father Serra for decades. They call him Racist. Enslaver of Native Americans. Colonialist. He’s about one notch below Christopher Columbus in their Hierarchy of Hate.
