This kind of crap has been happening for some time now.

I was a Columbine "Rebel" back in the 1980s. Our mascot was a revolutionary minuteman with a rifle. One of the graduating classes during the 1970s constructed a 10' high metal statue of a rifle-bearing colonialist with a three-pointed hat and erected it in front of the school. It stood there for years before disappearing sometime in the 1990s (before Columbine became infamous).

I have no doubt it was removed for PC reasons and it certainly will never return. Several ninnies even urged Columbine to drop its "Rebel" mascot altogether for something more peaceful.

While moderate conservatives may go along with removing confederate heritage/flags/symbols, the PC crowd just keeps taking. These ingrates don't stand for the pledge, they don't remove their hat during the anthem, and now they want an airplane removed cause it's "offensive!"

Anti-Americanism is way overboard.

My dad was a Pine Forest (Fayetteville, NC) Rebel. A few years after graduation they became the Trojans. From Rebels to condoms...

It's pretty simple, these people don't want *any* reminders of the type of men and equipment required to keep a country free and rid the world of evil types. Since they have neither the balls nor the competence to serve our nation in any useful capacity, that kind of thing has to go.
