If you needed further proof that these protesters/rioters/whatever you want to call them hearts are not in the right place And they really aren’t that smart at all with all of this recent hostility, they have vandalized a prominent Civil War Memorial in Boston.

The Shaw 54th Regiment Memorial was vandalized. For the uninformed, the 54th regiment was the all black regiment that fought for the north in the civil war. They were shown in the 1989 movie Glory.

It's not about rights anymore, it's not about Floyd, it is about wanting destruction

Not a surprise. They probably have a combined IQ in the single digits.

Was the statue vandalized or was it the plywood surrounding it that was spray painted? The article makes it seem like the latter.

You would think by now with all the destruction that racism would be over.

The plywood surrounding the monument while it undergoes restoration was vandalized...not the monument itself.

The headline is misleading

Shaw 54th Regiment Memorial defaced during protests
That’s how it reads, should have read all the way through the article. I still stand by my statement that these current riots/protesters are not in it for the right reasons.

Of note though, it has been vandalized a few times in the past, the repairs currently are to fix a sword that was broken off.

The monument was probably designed and built by white people, therefore it’s racist.

Definitely far right-wing. Or the Movie Board, one of the two.

I think when they vandalized that particular national monument, America reached Peak Sao. It’s a level of cluelessness for the sake of cluelessness that can only eat itself to death.

The thing these protesters all have in common is that they don't own anything.

If they did, they could appreciate the loss of those that have worked in order to have the ability to own.

There is no doubt excessive force has been used in many cases by law enforcement, and almost always it was against individuals who also had criminal records and/or little personal responsibilities.

Often times, the people who want the most change are the ones who didn't do what was necessary to provide for themselves.
