I'm going to break into the warehouse overnight, take a piss on that statue and post it here on the OT. Not because I care about the statue issue, just to piss off you statue snowflakes.


Enjoy that bologna sandwich at OPP.

Read up on freedom and the lack thereof of slaves and the indentured. And read up on the treatment of the "negroes"


The treatment they would receive "free" down there made the treatment they received state side while slaves look like living in a 5 star resort.

You're truly dense. You really have no idea the treatment the "workers" received down in the Caribbean and in South America. You wear your ignorance on your sleeve.

As soon as they got left with no money and no education and were essentially slaves to the farms anyways, I bet a ton were happier being a "house ****". I am sure their lineage is a little happier now though.

It's proof of the mass domestication of society and the irresponsible ways the media compares everything to Hitler which is a slap in the face of those who suffered from his tirade.

I've never heard anyone one ask this and I don't agree with slavery but........ What is Africa or wherever the majority of slaves like today? Is it better than the U.S.? Yeah, lsavery happened but are some not better off here than in third world countries? If those that prefer the old countries they're from.... give them one way tickets back home!

You still don't see the problem.

If these statues were taken down because it was offensive to remember what happened, then wouldn't reading about them in a public school be equally offensive? They need safe spaces to be free of such inconveniences.


I'm positive most of these regressive fascist would enjoy burning books they disagree with.

If only we had a history book to remember what other group burned books...

Would you erect a statue of Hitler or Rommel in front of the JCC and justify it as celebrating the history of WWII?


Here we go again. Please link with sources how many millions of people the Confederates gassed, killed, and cremated. Thanks.

To complete your analogy, if the Jews wanted to put up a memorial to the Nazis they should be able to. It was a free country at some point.

No the statues are being removed because a bunch of hillbillies continued to use the Confederate symbols as a symbol of hate instead of treating them as part of US history...so unfortunately for those who have some emotional attachment to an inanimate object that they have little ties to, they are being punished for the actions of a small group...the actual war isn't what is actually offensive, it's those that used it as a symbol of racism that make it offensive.


Do me another favor. Can you graphically show me what symbols on these statues were used as propaganda by hate groups?

Further, if these figures were used wholesale as figures of hate, then you should believe they need to be removed from history textbooks, no?

That is awesome. I hope the manlift needs a part that is on backorder.

Somebody needs to shut this whole mickey mouse operation down. Let the firefighters go fight fires. Let the cops go fight crimes. Let the SJWs get back to being unemployed sycophants.
