“Protesters” and potential vandals gathered by the statue in Capitol Hill’s Lincoln Park on Tuesday evening to discuss the “problematic” art. The statue depicts President Lincoln with a freed slave and is nearly 150 years old. It was unveiled 11 years after the president’s assassination.

On Tuesday, radical D.C. Delegate Eleanor Holmes Norton announced that she intends to introduce legislation to remove the statue.

This is the one that was organized by former slaves correct?


Eta: did a little research on this statue. The keynote address for its unveiling was delivered by Frederick Douglas.

Is it true they could get 10 years?

I'm so tired of nothing happening to these animals.

They need prison or hot lead. I really DGAF at this point.

These cases are going to cause many more classically liberal Democrats that feel very strongly about the first amendment to jump ship.

The one you are talking about is in Boston, but this one looks very similar.

ETA: Maybe the same association of freed slaves put the same statue in multiple cities then?

You don’t worry about the reason, white devil. It’s problematic. Fall in line.

So if we cancel Lincoln do we also cancel the emancipation proclamation?

I’ll admit I’m confused about how to not be labeled racist these days but this is stupid even for stupid.
