Federally protected monument. Anyone accomplice to this should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law

Is there any chance this sorry arse bunch has enough cash amongst them to pay for all the property damage their kind has done over the past year or so?

Shouldn't these geniuses also call for renaming Jackson Square, or do they even know how it got its name?

Police need to shoot their asses if they try to destroy the monument. I'm not for what happened long ago, but history is history and destroying public monuments that reflect our past is not going to fix anything.

Those statues were put there by the people who made New Orleans into a great city. It's fitting that they be torn down by the people who have ruined large parts of it.
It's a nice symbol for the general destruction of the city.

Is advising the NOPD to stay away while they commit a crime considered a threat to police? I read it as a threat.

Some one must have clued them into the fact that their original statement could be considered a threat. What a bunch of chicken shits!!!

Just for fun to think about, how would you tear down a statue that size with a group of people. Remember the square is fenced in so there is no way to get a motorized vehicle near the statue. Pulling and ropes? Some type of explosive? A missile or grenade? Scaffolding and sledge hammers?

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

New Orleans, LA -

An open call to all regional paintball teams has gone forth for a day of live target practice in Jackson Square on Saturday Sep 24th. Police have already been advised to stay away, so there's no issue with possible arrests or citations.

Be sure to arrive at 12:30pm to claim the best setup location for your group.

I would love to ask their opinions on Abraham Lincoln and then have them read this quote:

have no purpose to introduce political and social equality between the white and black races. There is physical difference between the two which, in my judgment, will probably forever forbid their living together upon the footing of perfect equality, and inasmuch as it becomes a necessity that there must be a difference, I, as well as Judge Douglas, am in favor of the race to which I belong having the superior position. Our republican system was meant for a homogeneous people. As long as blacks continue to live with the whites they constitute a threat to the national life. Family life may also collapse and the increase of mixed breed bastards may some day challenge the supremacy of the white man.

That would require some actual work, so I'm pretty sure you can scratch that one off the list.

Yeah but the difference is media and white guilt crowd is also all in for tearing down monuments. Regardless of what the monument's true symbolism and its history, they want that motherfricker torn down!

I just feel like they have this expectation that it will be a memorable event and the world will join hands and cry in unity. It's like they expect this glorious thing to happen. I think they're setting themselves up for a major letdown. And will be defacing a classic image of New Orleans in the process.

How many times have you seen a photo of New Orleans and what is the main image you usually see? Jackson Square with St. Louis Cathedral behind it.
