Inciting the mob to target more American monuments.

CNN has compiled a list of “unforgivable” statues and place names, leading some to accuse the network of inciting the mob to tear them down.

Since the riots in the aftermath of the death of George Floyd, numerous statues and monuments across the country have been defaced and torn down.

In one case, a statue fell on top of a protester in Portsmouth, Virginia, leaving him in a coma and in Albuquerque yesterday, a mob tearing down a statue turned on and attacked an armed man, leading to a protester being shot as the man tried to defend himself from a vicious attack.

Apparently, America hasn’t experienced enough violent chaos recently given the network’s decision to publish an article listing a number of “unforgivable” statues, effectively painting a target on them.

In an article entitled ‘Honoring the unforgivable – The horrific acts behind the names on America’s infamous monuments and tributes’, CNN’s Eliott C. McLaughlin asserts, “If historical figures embraced hate or violence, it doesn’t matter that they were great singers, innovators or wartime strategists, nor that they had changes of heart later in life.”

He then goes on to list a number of ‘offensive’ monuments or sites named after ‘racist’ historical figures, clearly hinting that they should be changed or removed.

The list includes;

– A memorial to George Preston Marshall on the grounds of Robert F. Kennedy Memorial Stadium. – Fort Benning. – A bust of Nathan Bedford Forrest stands at the Tennessee State Capitol. – A statue of conquistador Don Juan de Oñate which stands outside the Albuquerque Museum. – Dozens of buildings, several roads and a bridge in West Virginia that bear the name of Sen. Robert Byrd. – The Edmund Pettus Bridge in Selma, Alabama.

So CNN is now giving violent ANTIFA/BLM mobs targets.

Eating their own...more coming.

Just wait until the Clinton, Biden and Gore connections come out...

– Dozens of buildings, several roads and a bridge in West Virginia that bear the name of Sen. Robert Byrd.
– Yale’s Calhoun College.

[Trump.Deplorable]

Only way to stop this is to destroy the media, all of it

Once the media has been destroyed, all of this will end.

[Alas Babylon!]

At least they’re looking at Robert “Exalted Cyclops” Byrd.

KKK Joe Biden’s favorite democrat.

[blackdog]

That Ted Turner estate has to be torched and torn down.

[Comanche]

SEEMS SO.

[KobraKai]

Ok, where’s our list?

[lgjhn23]

CNN needs to add themselves to the “list”.

[Rapscallion]

Who the F does CNN think they are?

[CMSMC]

Ft Trump GA has a nice ring to it.

[Salman]

CNN is a terrorist organization. They are also one of the DNC’s private contractors.

[South Dakota]

One statue that should be targeted would be the Billy clinton dedicated statue of William fulbright

I think if several hundred pretender-Antifa guys showed up at Columbia University and a dozen other ivy league universities....performing the same riot and destruction operations, then things might come to a quick end.

So ask a leftist this: when is it enough? Is this a comprehensive list? We change these things and we're done, we're good?

Prediction. You will NEVER get a leftist to say yes, this is all that needs to be done. Because to them it isn't that a particular name or statue is offensive. It is about having the power to declare this or that offensive. That ability to deem something a problem, and direct their mob's ire (literally or figuratively) at the designated business or organization gives the left tremendous power.

The message to businesses and other entities is clear: stay in our good graces, support our agenda and you're safe - for now. But if you oppose us, or even don't support us with the enthusiasm we want, we will find some excuse to target you.

The left might as well put on the leather boots and brown shirts now. They're demanding, extorting conformance and using "racism" or "homophobe" or "islamophobe" etc. etc. as their club.

[AU72]

How about the Georgia Guidestones.

[Vaduz]

CNN should be removed fewer riots less crime honest reporting news.........................................................

[BenLurkin]

“If historical figures embraced hate or violence...”

That’s pretty much everyone. Including Lenin.

Is his statue on the list?

[edwinland]

– Dozens of buildings, several roads and a bridge in West Virginia that bear the name of Sen. Robert Byrd.

It's more like hundreds and YES tear them all down. He was an execrable KKK Democrat excuse for a human being.

Then banish anyone who ever supported him:

[caww]

Police under seige
Statues under seige
Businesses under Seige
Whites under seige
War Graves under seige

.....the list goes on and on and on.
