Why is Landrieu taking down the statue of man who fought for Civil Rights and the black right to vote post-war?

I hope Mitch chokes to death on an AIDS dick.

The city infrastructure is crumbling, the murder rate is skyrocketing, the city won't even bother picking up old fricking trashcans, and this is the shite he wastes our tax dollars and resources on.

frick the entire Landrieu family. Nothing more than a bunch of corrupt, despicable, political whores.

His knickname was Little Napoleon so I suspect Mitch wants him gone so he can steal his name. Beauregard was also a Creole.

Anybody having trouble viewing live videos on Facebook? There were rumors the city planned to scramble cell signals in the area of the monument.

Hey Mitch maybe pull your head out of the sand and learn about history.



From Nola.com
quote:

A change of heart, a forgotten man -- Beauregard fought hard to preserve the Old South, including the institution of slavery. But after the war his reputation as a hero of the Confederacy was forever damaged by his outspoken work for human rights. As part of a coalition of prominent white and black New Orleanians, he not only argued to give black people voting rights but also pushed for integrated schools, public places and transportation. "I am persuaded that the natural relation between the white and colored people is that of friendship," Beauregard said in an address published in July 1873 in newspapers including The New Orleans Republican and The Daily Picayune. "I am persuaded that their interests are identical; that their destinies in this state, where the two races are equally divided, are linked together; and that there is no prosperity for Louisiana which must not be the result of their cooperation. "I am equally convinced that the evils anticipated by some men from the practical enforcement of equal rights are mostly imaginary, and that the relation of the races in the exercise of these rights will speedily adjust themselves to the satisfaction of all."

Somebody needs to call OSHA and get them out there. No way that the proper rigging and equipment is being used in any of this. No way they prepared a lift plan. Serious infractions.

Was wondering whether to head to NO, Savannah or Charleston with the wife this summer. Think I've narrowed it down to 2 choices...

JBE will never sign that bill.

Not sure what percentage vote is needed to override a governor's veto, but it's probably 2/3rds, maybe 70%.
