It'll be a place for white people to go for self flagellation while calling people who judge others by the content of their character, not by the color of their skin, nazis.

Why do you disparage him like that? Would you say something similar of any of our Founders, about whom it’s just as valid?


Oh, you know why. It’s because they’re racist. OT posters tell on themselves all the time in these threads.

Sure. Why not? If they did it, then they did it. Nobody is perfect.

Nothing like gaudy statues ruining great American cities
What’s wrong with just putting a statue of the person himself?

First of all, he obviously wasn’t a founder. The comparison is asinine. Second of all, he was a communist who hated western civilization. And before you think I’m being hyperbolic, go look up his quote on western civilization.

The fact that we have enshrined him in our national pantheon is ridiculous.

Did you see the time period he lived in. It's not exactly a wonder why he would hate the civilization he lived in.

Ok. I won’t revere him though.

I’d have more respect for him if his beliefs were the same as Malcolm X.

The irony, of course, is that the same political party that had his people enslaved, then discriminated against with Jim Crow laws, ultimately had him killed as well. Now that party "embraces" him.

He and 95% of his people are still owned by white progressives. Or is that voting bloc higher than 95%?

That’s a funny angle in that photo, but the sculpture itself isn’t bad.


The sculpture itself is a headless tangle of limbs.

But hey, you know, giant afro pick and shite.

With our forefathers, it’s just rumor and speculation. With JFK, like MLK, we know it’s absolutely f*cking true. And, YES, I would say the same thing about JFK -- another f*cking SCUMBAG.

It looks like that same abstract style as the strange looking woman with the ice cream scoop head that they put on Lees Circle and the Afro pick thing. It appears they are having trouble finding an Artist that they approve of that can handle making a likeness of people and other real objects
