This was only applicable when the large majority of people actually wanted liberty. We have far too many people now who are completely fine with giving up liberty in exchange for government subsides and handouts.


If I recall the majority was also resistant at that time as well. Hence why it took so long to declare and even then the majority was still unsure.

“Would” be?

Thomas Jefferson statue fight about seizing government

Hofstra University students have called for campus authorities to cart off a statue of Thomas Jefferson, saying the Founding Father was a slaveowner and therefore racist and therefore ought not be honored in the public sphere.

Students petitioned a year ago for the statue’s removal. But it was just recently the statue became the site of a “Jefferson Has Gotta Go!” protest, organized by, curiously enough, staffers from the nearby Nassau County Planned Parenthood office. (a little taxpayer funded abortion and activism)

“[The protest] isn’t just about a statue,” said former Hofstra College Democrats board member Miranda Pino, in the College Fix. “[It’s about] a legacy of racism and bigotry on college campuses.”

quote:

Thomas Jefferson’s statue should come down.

I don’t know of any other way to say it: statues that honor slaveowners should not be on University of Virginia property.

Thomas Jefferson’s statue should be taken down and if someone wants to put it on their private property, that would be fine.

Put a statue of Edgar Allen Poe there. Or one of Ralph Sampson. But Thomas Jefferson’s name should be slowly eliminated from all articles about UVa.

Although I am Caucasian, I feel that it is an insult to every African-American student at UVa to have Jefferson’s statue on UVa public property. (White guilt)

UVa does not belong to Thomas Jefferson. He does not deserve to be called “Mr. Jefferson.” This is 2018! I realize that Thomas Jefferson is an industry in central Virginia, and it would be expensive to rid UVa of his contributions. But think about it: this is 2018, and we have a statue of a slaveholder in front of our campus?!

There is a lot about slavery that we don’t know. There is also a lot that we will never know. My guess is that some of what we don’t know is more horrible than anything we do know. That is another reason to rid ourselves of Thomas Jefferson.

Thomas Jefferson statue at William and Mary defaced.

The Thomas Jefferson statue on the campus of the College of William and Mary was found defaced on Tuesday, Feb. 14, 2017. Red paint appeared on the hands of the statue, as well as on the bricks and grass surrounding the statue with the words "slave owner" appearing in all-caps on the ground.

Students condemn Columbia’s statue of Thomas Jefferson as racist, sexist

A group of students has denounced Columbia’s statue of Thomas Jefferson, arguing that by honoring Jefferson without acknowledging his ownership of slaves, the University validates ongoing racism. The group, known as Mobilized African Diaspora, protested the statue’s presence earlier this month by draping a Ku Klux Klan robe over its head. According to a blog post by MAD, the robe was removed within half an hour. “By commemorating the legacy of a man who dismissed the humanity of all black people, Columbia continues to position itself as an anti-black institution that upholds hypocrisy and white supremacy,” the post reads.

CNN's Angela Rye: Washington, Jefferson Statues "Need To Come Down"

CNN's Angela Rye called for statues of George Washington and Thomas Jefferson to come down Thursday on the network.

"American history is not all glorious... George Washington was a slave owner. We need to call slave owners out for what they are. Whether we think they were protecting American freedom or not, he wasn't protecting my freedoms," the network contributor said.

"To me, I don't care if it's a George Washington statue or Thomas Jefferson, they all need to come down," Rye concluded.

Even that would be less pathetic than playing an e-badass civil war 2 advocate. The fact of the matter is none of you are going to do anything more than puff yourselves up on a football forum.

There is a reason people do this, and evidently you don't understand why.


What's that? Run your mouth about starting up another Civil War on the Internet? I know exactly why you do it. It's because you feel powerless. You know damn well it'll go even worse than last time, and this is about the only thing you can do about it. I get it, but that won't stop me from pointing it out every time one of these ridiculous threads is started.

So sit over there in that dump boring town and do whatever it is you people do.


There sure are a lot of Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, Georgia, etc. plates in this "dump boring town" this weekend. I wonder why...

Since I've defined it, I clearly do. Or do words not mean anything to liberals anymore other than a tool to confuse and direct the weak-minded?

They stop there to take a piss on their way to Destin and Panama City. Pcola is a dump, which is another thing they do there.

In the words of Dwayne Johnson..it doesn't matter what you think. It only matters what I think. Pay attention boy you might learn something.

You are the only moron talking starting some thing. You 're the resident cowboy here with the alleged scars to prove it. Grab your Super Soaker and go shoot at the mailman or something if it'll make you feel better.

No, you don't. You don't get to define that for anyone but yourself.

Fake "conservatives" are the best.

For three days. They'd stay longer if they could afford it. Fortunately, they can't so they'll head back up north to whatever trash Alabama town they came from.

I didn't start the thread, sport. I'm also not the one running my mouth about how many firearms "we" own and other such nonsense. Direct your insecurities at those people.
