quote:

Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) on Thursday said "people will do what they do" in response to a question about the toppling of a statue of Christopher Columbus in Baltimore.

"I don't even have my grandmother's earrings," said Pelosi, who was born in Baltimore, adding, "I think it's up to the communities to decide what statues they want to see."

The Columbus statue was taken off its podium and thrown into the Inner Harbor by protesters on Saturday. The statue had stood near Baltimore's "Little Italy" neighborhood and was put in place in 1984.


quote:

Officials in Maryland have criticized the destruction of the Columbus statue.

Gov. Larry Hogan (R) on Twitter wrote that while peaceful protests and a "constructive dialogue" on moving monuments was welcome, "lawlessness, vandalism, and destruction of public property is completely unacceptable."

Trump says flying the confederate flag is a free speech issue and that makes him racist.

Pelosi says that it's up to the communities to decide what statues they want to see. Will that also make her racist?

She disavowing her grandparents, that's what it means. Back in the day, her FATHER dedicated the Columbus statue in Baltimore. She's distancing herself from her ancestry to show how woke she is. Disgusting.

She's right, so people should throw her arse in the river because they certainly don't want to see or hear her.

She’s such an effective representative for her district, people poop in the street while she lives in a gated community with armed private security.

Them: "Did you hear? Nancy Pelosi was thrown from the top of a building!"

Me: "People will do what they do".

She is a witch. There is historical precedence for that sort of an act.

Article says this statue was dedicated in 1984. Certainly not dedicated by her Father.

She's just maybe not stuck on relics/trinkets from the past? Its a piece of bronze( or whatever material it was made of).

The people tearing down that statue would riot if whites did the same thing to an MLK statue and you'd probably be crying about how racist it was. But when it's a statue of a white guy, no big deal.
