Time to relegate the FDR Monument in Washington to the flames

[Polishprince]

President Roosevelt's racism- including the interment of Japanese and fielding a segregated Jim Crow Army in the 2nd world war should disqualify him from being honored with this statue in the nation's own capital.

Perhaps when this monument was erected, segregation and racism were considered "ok", but now they are not.

The plot of land where the memorial is at can be used for a monument to a worthy American like Freddie Gay or Notorious Big.

Who was president in 1929?

Go fuck yourself, FDR is a hero of mine and was a great President.

So you agree with having a Jim Crow Army and interring Japanese?

 

[Ringtone]

Go fuck yourself, FDR is a hero of mine and was a great President.

He was a lousy president whose policies prolonged the depression.

Who was president in 1929?

What has Herbert Hoover got to do with this?

What has Herbert Hoover got to do with this?

He was president when the Depression started.

Who was president in 1929?

President Hoover doesn't have a monument on the mall in Washington DC.

Irrelevant to FDR's racist mishandling of WW2.

Jim Crow and interring the Japanese "saved the world"? Are you loaded or something?

 

[EvilCat Breath]

He was president when the Depression started.

Why not look it up. That's what I did.

I am sure you are right on top of it.

The Italians and Germans were also interned it is what countries did when at war with nations, which happened during WWI also.

I have no hypocrisy I enjoy all forms of war.

That's sort of hilarious. Because the Germans and Italians- Hitler and Mussolini- did it, it makes it "ok" for Roosevelt to do it in your mind?

I look at it differently, let's cancel ALL of the socialists.

The Germans and Italians were interned in the US while being US citizens. Why are you so short on knowledge of US history?
