I can understand the Confederate Statues, they were traitors. Put them in a museum where they belong


Andrew Jackson may or may not have been a shitty person, but he was a US president. You don't tear down statues of US presidents

They say this like it's a paper mache, as if a concreted in and bolted down statue is just going to fall over.

taking the statues down would involve work. I think they'll be just fine.

These people are so stupid they probably think Jackson was a Civil War general. They don't have the education to know better or the inclination to at least fricking google it.

I agree but they would turn around and sue the city for the statue falling on them even though they are the ones that pulled it down.

But ole racist Andrew Jackson would get him one more kill.

I seriously doubt any of them know how to operate the machinery it would take to remove the statue.

Or that our taxes are being wasted on these delicate flowers feelings instead of the real problems that New Orleans in facing.

so much for having a discussion and raising awareness. Destroying property doesn't exactly gain support for the cause

this shite is hilarious. I guess that they don't realize that these monuments weights are measured in tons not pounds.

frick it I hope they pull em down. I hope they're dumb enough to stand right under it while it falls too.

"if we've got enough people and we've got enough rope."

I find this statement very ironic.

I cannot stand how these entitled people try to put today's views on history and try to take it down.

Yes almost everybody was racist in the 1800s and owned slaves.

To them it is. I mean hell, it's not like it's more important than crime, murders, terrible roads, an infrastructure quickly falling apart, lack of money, and the wealthy saying "screw this I'm outta here".

Nope it's the most important thing.
