Short answer. Yes, it’s already started. We live in a lawless society. The mob rules.

“Short answer. Yes, it’s already started.”

Leftist will disavow Lincoln and seek to eradicate his legacy. But the attack on him by radicals will probably not occur “next.” It is still too soon.

There are other targets to be destroyed first. The frogs will need to adjust to the increasingly warm water.

It already happened in New Orleans a few years ago.

There was a George Washington school in New Orleans. They changed the name of the school because Washington owned slaves. They renamed the school.after Charles Drew, a black surgeon .

No word however, on whether this name change boosted the self esteem of the black students, or boosted student achievement of the black students, now that they no longer had to endure the alleged stigma of going to a school named after a slave owner.

Eventually the state of Washington will need to get a new name.

Well the statue of Lincoln does have his hands on two fascist symbols, the tied bands of sticks and axe.

The dime used to have the same on one side.

THAT should really set off the antifas.

Lincoln was a racist and the Civil War was the biggest bait and switch in history.

We don’t live in a lawless society. We live in cucked society. The laws are clear, it’s time for the people to be clear. We’re done. Please call me a racist. Please call me a homophobe. Please call me an anti-semite. To live in a world where being a white man automatically makes you all of these things should be all of the fair-warning that you need.

Wake up.
Stop being ashamed of your race.
Stop being ashamed of your desire to live around people who are like you.
Stop watching porn.
Stop hiring people who don’t share your values.
Stop working for people who don’t share your values.
Stop supporting institutions who don’t share your values.
Start having kids.
Home school your kids.
Take your kids to Sunday School.
If you are in a position of power, promote people who share your values. (That is exactly what the other side does... everyday.)

We owe the future and the past. The only way you can repay your father or mother is to have children, and the only way you can honor your ancestors is learn from them.

When was the last time Democrats rallied around doing something useful? They are incapable of solving any problem.

I can imagine Washington being renamed after Marx or Lenin. The progressives would love that. California could be renamed Mexico del Norte, perhaps.

But yet there are many things named after Robert KKK Byrd and even many named after LBJ. Both Democrat racists.

You are right. But I think the name and legacy of “Seattle” is probably safe.

I said probably.

It is almost Spring the crazy protesters are organizing for the summer camp locations. When colleges end in May they need to have the protest locations lined up before students crawl into their parents basements.Looks like Gettysburg is on the list. That will be bloody.

We’re getting close to a French/Commie style revolution. The Communism and socialism should have never been allowed to exist in our country. And if the opportunity arises, God willing, in the future it should be outlawed entirely.

Hadn’t heard that. Can you provide any details. A huge number of monuments both Union and Confederate there. Are some leftists concentrating on the ‘high water’ monument of Pickett’s men?

I’m all for it and will support it in any way that I can. Lincoln was an unconstitutional and bloody tyrant.

Transient passions of the mob de jour cannot be permitted to tear down monuments to the past intended to endure into the future..

Several years ago I heard a leftist academic on NPR state that all the states of the South (that include border states and Oklahoma) are going to have to threat the WBTS the way West Germany has treated WW2 and the Holocaust. All public monuments removed, display or even ownership of any Confederate flag forbidden by law as well as any public commemoration of the CSA. He droned on, lots more crap about monumentalizing the awfulness of slavery, the CSA and Jim Crow , compulsory education on the evils of the white men who did these things and reparations. I think he was letting the cat out of the bag, but that is what is going to be attempted. Good way to keep racial antipathies boiling and keep blacks on the rat welfare plantation.

Yes, children. Lincoln is going down. As will every single white Christian icon in western civilization.

All these will be replaced by statues of Stalin, Che Guevara, Nelson Mandela, et al.

The America haters must erase our history in order to reduce the USA to impoverished status. That's the only way the globalists can eliminate class envy, viz. to make us as poor as the rest of the world.

That's Soros' plan. He's old and dying and he wants to be sure there's nothing worth having after he's gone. He doesn't want to think he's missing anything. He wants to burn it all down.

I’m positive that most presidents are ashamed of the fact that such poorly performing schools are named after them in cities throughout the country.

Absolutely.

And Kennedy was sexist, so that airport needs to be renamed.

And all the names on The Wall were transphobic. Tear it down.

The goal is to destroy and distort our nation’s history.

My family fought for the North, but you don’t have be a “War of Northern Aggression” believer to recognize what is going on here.
