Baltimore’s Taliban left removed all of the city’s Confederate Monuments last night. A city spokesmen said they will all be destroyed. Yeah, that should solve Baltimore’s violent gang problem.
So, where does it end? And when do the book burnings start?
It’s already started in Chicagoland – they want to do away with the George Washington statue: http://chicago.cbslocal.com/2017/08/16/jackson-washington-park-protest-presidents-slave-owners/
I’m going to be re-stocking my ammo and firearms, because the War Between the States v2.0 is about ready to begin.

A great idea would be for the city or state sell the statue to the far right nut jobs. They can then place them on their own private property.
Remove them all. Rename all schools, streets and public buildings. Also, remove the holiday in his name.
Not only was he homophobic, he cheated on his wife numerous times and was a racist, he did not find white women attractive.
“I can say with the greatest confidence that he was never attracted to white women and had nothing to do with them, despite the opportunities that may have presented themselves.”
– “And the Walls Came Tumbling Down”, Ralph David Abernathy.
A racist and misogynist. Take them down, take them all down.
Today’s Programm
Did anyone support gay marriage in the 1960s, let alone ever think it could even be possible? A better comparison would have been asking King about gay marriage in the late 2000s, or even early 2000s. Sadly, he didn’t live.
He was killed by someone who was a fan of Ayn Rand, Joseph McCarthy, and Adolf Hitler.
CCP completely missed the irony of it’s comment.
So, we shouldn’t apply today’s social norms onto people of the past? Haha.
You are befuddled!
JFK was a sleazy cheating crook. His family got their money from illegal alcohol sales. He used women, by today’s standards he would be call misogynistic. Rename the Kennedy Center.
Johnson was a racist, tear down the Johnson Space Center.
So Vince uses the shibboleths of the Left to try and condemn conservatives. All three of those people had wildly differing views with nothing in common. And one of them had views that coincide with views held by the Modern Left. “Society’s ills can be solved by the government, hunting should be banned, and eating meat is wrong”. Guess who that is.
Come for the book-burning, stay for the auto de fé . Children under-12 get preferred seating upfront.
So, once the remains of the Confederacy have been shoved down the memory hole, what next?
At some point, once the Confederacy is disappeared, people on the south side of Chicago, Camden, Baltimore, or East St Louis are going to wake up to find that their neighbors are still killing each other with appalling frequency and that the culture and schools have imparted nothing of any use making someone employable – and then they’ll wonder who should be blamed next.
I saw one comment that asserts that the destruction of these monuments serve as symbolic killings of whites. If symbolic killings don’t work, is it s big stretch to wonder if people will start thinking actual killings might so the trick?
The cloud people egging this on seem to have no idea that history teaches that, inevitably, the barbarians will be at their gates.
They’ve already burned flags aplenty.
Now they’re on to monuments.
Soon it will be books.
And then people.
We will in dangerous times, and once the Millennials are in control of this country, purges of conservatives and banning of certain thoughts will be commonplace. Welcome 1984 and Animal Farm.
The now-Republican rulers in Birmingham Alabama covered up with their monuments with cheap particle board.
It’s worth noting that the Confederate monuments in the capital building are Democrat politicians from the Old South. But hey, purging what should never been there in the first place is fine & dandy with me. I’m surprised the Dems can even walk now with all their repeated bullets between the toes. The hysteria is something that I enjoy. Except they’re letting the Russia/Russia/Russia thing expire with a death rattle.
Even before that, it was through unethical and shady stock trading practices. It’s the major reason why FDR enlisted Joseph P. Kennedy to help create the Securities & Exchange Commission (on the theory that it takes a crook to catch a crook).
Joe Kennedy was also a Nazi proponent. He argued that Hitler had merit. Oh my but facts are such stubborn things.
