Rev Al Sharpton: Defund the Jefferson Memorial

From the Charlie Rose show Tuesday night (h/t Steve Sailer):
quote:
Charlie Rose: Should they take down the Jefferson memorial?
Al Sharpton :I think that people need to understand when people that were enslaved and robbed of even the right to marry, and had forced sex with their slave masters, that this is personal to us. My great grandfather was a slave in South Carolina owned by the family that ended up, Strom Thurmond was one of them, a newspaper discovered it. So, this is personal. This is not some kind of removed discussion from us. Our families were victims of this, certainly it ought to --
CR: Therefore, everybody associated with slavery in terms of any public monument to them --
AS: When you look at the fact that public monuments are supported by public funds, you are asking me to subsidize the insult of my family.
CR: Then I repeat Thomas Jefferson had slaves.
AS: And I would repeat that the public should not be paying to uphold somebody who had that kind of background.

All history must be erased. We must live in the present at all times, a present that is dictated by the State.

as much as all of this irritates me....this is not helping the democratic cause whatsoever

Good. We need more of this.
Americans need to understand what is happening.

He caught up on his taxes yet? Seems to me IRS should take a look into his finances

I can't believe that this is the wedge issue that Democrats think will help them. They can't be that out of touch with their former constituents.

Don't stop there.
Lets defund the entire U.S. Government.
It was born with racism in it's heart.
Shut.
It.
Down.

Please let Democrats run on a platform of defunding national monuments in 2018. LOL

I agree with Al. It's time to bend the knee to our black overlords. The prosperity and freedom that awaits us brings tears to my eyes.

It's funny, because conservatives have been sounding the alarm that this was the inevitable end result of going down this track, while liberals shrugged it off as hyperbole and said nobody's coming for the Founding Fathers, quit being a paranoid conservative quack.
And now here we are...

fricking brilliant. We've turned progressives into conservatives.

I imagine that most all of the founding fathers of this country had some aspect of their industry that used slaves or outwardly owned them. Does this mean that our great country is now invalidated?!
If so, I suppose my paying of taxes could be exposing me to accusations of being a racist.
I think my days of paying taxes to this racist country will be coming to a end soon.

Human history is not always pretty. If I go back far enough, my family came from a part of Spain that was overrun by Moors. Should I take that personally?
People get so hung up on unusual things.

I'm sure he just vomits every day as he passes that giant phallic monument in the middle of DC representative of George Washington's dick that he raped his slaves with.
