CNN Thinks It’s Time to Take Down Jefferson Memorial

[AsianTrumpSupporter]

I think we should take down the MLK statue. It looks like an ugly piece of commie trash from the 1980s Soviets. I'm not against having an MLK statue, but that is one ugly as fuck statue.

Where does this end? The American "Left" is descending into complete fascism/authoritarianism.

Our first 9-10 POUS, FDR, MLK, Kennedy, Indian tribal chiefs etc., they're all guilty consistent with liberal narrative. Don't expect liberals to recognize that. Someone else does their thinking for them and they react emotionally.

Taking down a flag or statue from a public area does not erase history it simply stops celebrating the history of those figures

The intent is to remove portions of history from the public square. It's no different than ISIS does everywhere they go.

Isis destroys. Those who want to destroy those statues are wrong. They should be in a museum as they are part of our history or they should be auctioned off. But I have no problem taking them out of the public arena. They don't need to be celebrated if they represent racist elements of our past.

For some it may be celebratory. For others it's rubbing the past into the faces of subsequent generations so they learn from earlier mistakes.

Are you really making the argument that a flying confederate flag or Lee statue is a lesson to people about what not to do? Should we also hang nazi flags and build statues of hitler? Maybe you want to rethink that logic?

I'm sorry, but you need to make sense before I can reply.

How does my statement not make sense?

You said that Lee statues are "rubbing the past into the faces of subsequent generations so they learn from earlier mistakes"

I asked if we should put up Hitler statues using the same logic... get it now?

It's a question, a stupid one. CNN isn't a propaganda machine that agrees on anything, like Fox etc, dupe. This is about confederates, not earlier slave owners. Get a grip.

This is perfect the libs are attacking our own nations history and heritage. Just in time for the midterms.....

 

[TomParks]

They have no clue of history, nor do they care. They mean to destroy the traditional underpinnings of this society in the hopes of a collapse into chaos.

They cant win any elections that is the problem....they are turning to violence

 

[Rambunctious]

The idiot left is playing right into Trump's hands. He is making them look crazier than they can make him look.....

Trump needs to call in the national guard when this shit happens......those leftists get out of line put them in their place

 

[Flash]

Trump was right today.

First the filthy ass bat shit crazy Alt Left demands to take down the Confederate heroes and then next our Founding Fathers.

Despite the majority of Americans opposing taking down Confederate Memorials, of course CNN is all for imposing the minority liberal demands on the majority of the country. Obama and the Democrats who passed the ACA, after all, cemented is as THE Democratic Party way.

The ACA was a minority supported, socialist agenda-driven piece of legislation rammed down the throats of the majority of Americans who did not want it.

In NC some liberal POS snowflake broke the law and pulled down a near-century-old statue of a Confederate soldier, right in front of the pathetic police who sat there and watched him break the law. (These policemen should be fired, BTW).

Democrats are about what the Democrats want, even If they have to break the law to get it because the law does not apply to them, only to those who are serious about protecting / defending the Constitution and Rule of Law.

The Clintons, Obama, Holder, Lynch, Comey, Brazile, Little Debbie and others have proved that to be true.

When and why did those statues go up? How about we take a look at the "Historical" significance and dig deeper into the intent behind the monuments... Thoughts?

Hitler was not American history. Only the results of his madness, which are also no longer taught in American schools.

Wow, keep spreading the lies man... you are bringing up a discussion between Ashely and Don Lemon in 2015 that was exploring the motives and reasoning for taking down the confederate flag. At no point did CNN or Ashely suggests that they think the Jefferson memorial should be taken down. That is a flat out lie. You lost all rights to complain about fake news after spreading this garbage... damn!!!

Well - why not?

Our war with Hitler was a big part of American history, regardless do you not see the relations that i'm drawing with your attempt at logic? Your statement doesn't make sense. Do you think it a good idea to put statues of Hitler up all around Germany right now? Would that be a good way to teach the youth over there a lesson about what not to do? Do you find that a smart and appropriate action?

Why not? Knowledge of that period has been suppressed by law in Germany.

So we need to remove the Jefferson memorial and the Lincoln memorial gets vandalized... Where does this nonsense stop?

ok so you support erecting statues in Germany of Hitler. Good to know

Maybe you can go buy some land out there call it Nazi park and build a big statue of good ol Adolph. Try and find something in a Jewish neighborhood... Make Germany Great Again!

Why would I? I'm not German.

Maybe I'd erect statues of St. Patrick in Ireland, but the place is awash in them, and I have no particular ties with Ireland.
