A Word To My Free Republic Family On The NYC "Multi-racialist" Statue
1/14/2002 | AMMON-CENTRIST

Freepers, I want to talk to you all about the staute. I agree with you all that to depict the staute with mullti-racial characters is wrong and politically correct. I, however, have something to tell you all that you will not like.

Do you know what the ethnicity/gender/race/sexual orientation breakdown of the rescue workers who died is? Does anybody care? I assumed they were all Americans, and that's all that was important to me till now...

So, now I have to muck around and find out what the demographics of the dead are? Anybody know?

WHY ARE THEIR NO ASIANS or AMERICAN INDIANS ? OR WOMEN? THIS IS DISCRIMINATION!!!!!!!!
I suggest an Asian Male, a Black female, and a handicapped white gay person, with that person's sex not being readily identifiable...

Personally I don't care what color our successors are as citizens of the US so long as they're Americans and devoted to the American ideals of freedom and capitalism.(Argus)

Bingo. Add Christianity and I'm with you. Because it was the foundation this country was built upon. And without it, this country cannot stand.

Can't you third a motion?

Look here, this is New York. The main trunk of the old New York Cental line which runs up the East Bank of the Hudson to Albany uses the bones from 10,000 years worth of American Indian graveyards for ballast.

It's long overdue for New York to get it right - first they decided the Indians were not really historically significant so it was OK to plunder their graves. Now they are deciding that the white men in a picture of a recent event are no more historically significant than were those Indians.

What you are facing is just more of the same nonsense New York has always ladled out. It is time for them to change. Hold them to account. There was no multi-culturalism about that picture - just some real human beings raising a flag. It must be portrayed the way it happened, with full respect for the human beings involved, or it's just another thing like the miles of ballast under the old New York Central.

Ho hum! More experts telling us that we can't win!

The best way to know that we/you are winning a war that those on the far left and their mirror images on the right don't want us to win is this tactic. Where they tell us that we can't win!

You can't win in Desert Storm, you will need 250,000 body bags!

If you start a war against Arab Terrorists, 1.25 billion Arabs will rise up and destroy your, your family and your country!

You can never win a war in Afghanistan!

You can never win a war in Afthanistan without a large body of foot soldiers on the land!

You can't beat Tommy Dasshole when he wants to increase your taxes!

The Arizona Diamond Backs are a mistake and will never win the World Series!

The real reality is that if we listen to the losers in life telling us that we can't win. We can't win!

Just ignore the losers in life and do what's right for your family, children, grandchildren and country. You will not win all of the battles, but neither will you/we lose them!

We have listen to the Nay Sayers for the last 50 years. Then, about two years ago we stopped listening to them and started winning. That is what it is all about! Trying to win, winning and if we lose learning from our losses!

Since 9/11 we have put many of the PC idiots out of commission and many are on the ropes. This group is on the ropes right now with their arrogant PC revisionist decision! It is time for the TKO after some brutal glove work!

So our enemies have us surrounded! That is right where we want them!

If they are going to change racial features, then absolutely they MUST put a woman in the statue. If we insist on this one thing, then it puts the rest in perspective, and maybe we can win this thing.

That, and putting up our own statue.

So where do I contribute to a fund to put up a real statue, larger than this piece of work?

why dont any of the "minorities" ever speak up and feel the way they really should..... dont any of them feel the least bit insulted? this implies theyre so useless and hopeless that we have to cheat and fudge history for them. this is like kids being encouraged to feel good about themselves, but hey johnny, if you cant read, just smile and have a popsicle. it will be all better. i guess the special minority interests are being revealed for what they really ar; sell out special rights, special aid, special everything WHORES!

The word racist has been watered down to the point that it no longer means anything other then White.

That's damn true.

*Shaking my head*

Will you all calm down? If you all revolt, the government will “clamp down” on you all in some way. The government is a left wing regime even though Bush is in control. If you do win and get the statue changed, then blacks will revolt. I’m not for racial confrontation. I don’t need to see both sides warring over a stupid statue!

*sign*

Never mind. Your freedom to do what you want. I'll shut up and will act as an android and just go along with Free Republic. I am a android, I am a android, I am a android! Insert new software please....

Let's start a list of contributors for truth, justice and the American Way. Or is that too "racist" now?

If that's not a RACIST statement, I don't know what is.

"...I think you all know what the government will do to you if you oppose."

First of all, I ain't runnin' from a bunch of ignorant jackasses trying to push this country toward civil war. I acknowledge that it will be difficult to stop, but I assure you, that at least for a time, the govt will end up looking over their shoulders if this march toward racial divisiveness continues.

What happens when we all convince ourselves that we can't win?

Well... We just lost! Right there, its over.

What happens if we never give up? WE WIN!!!

Duh!

And please, lets don't start with this junk that the leftists are all in control etc. etc. etc. That's conspiracy talk.

Historical periods have a tendency to last about three generations. The leftist period is all petered out. Our time is begining now!

Damn, I'm excited. WE'RE WINNERS!
