Fun fact...much of the ancient world was built by slaves, of every hue.
Anytime you find yourself looking at something historic and saying, "how the hell did they do that?" Like dragging those stones up walls in BC times. The answer is ALWAYS slaves. People being beaten. Pyramids are just too old I guess.
Retroactive outrage is the worst.

Why would anyone want to take down Jackson?
Well, he's a symbol of anti-Catholicism abroad.

"I have no interest at all in preserving white supremacy monuments that honor the people who try to enslave and exploit our people," Suber said. Suber said he is now looking ahead to his next fight. He wants Andrew Jackson's statue at Jackson Square changed to honor runaway slave and abolitionist Harriet Tubman.
"If Harriet Tubman can be placed on the $20 bill, in coming years, we can remove Jackson from Jackson Square and call it Tubman Square," Suber said.

Sorry folks who literally tried to end the USA don't get to be propped up as much.

Remember when American Forces, led by Harriet Tubman, saved New Orleans from being burned to the ground by British Forces in 1815?

If any of those monuments are removed I will never spend another penny in that city.
Some idiots would like to pretend that history can be erased. Everything must be politically correct, all the time or their sensitive feelings get all bent out of shape. Grow up!

You realize Obama is going to get a library named after him...fricking ironic isnt it?

I dislike Obama as much as the next conservative, but you're creating a bit of a false equivalency there and you know it.

You know not of which you speak. States rights were the foundation of this country.
Under your logic we should just support the government no matter what they do. Leaving slavery out of this. Seceding from the union was the most patriotic thing the south could have done.

Are you suggesting the founding fathers were wrong to break away from Britain?

FWIW they've determined the pyramids were built with paid labor.
