"New Orleans is severing its ties to the racist Confederate history that still lingers in the city by removing several Confederate statues. Early Monday morning, city workers were to begin to take down the statues while it was still dark to avoid clashing with those wanting to preserve the history."
Nothing will ever rustle my jimmies like this, fuck every yankee jew that ever lived.
There will not even be a memory of Whites left in 500 years
Adrian Green
If you're near a scheduled blacking of a monument. Get there early save a piece for yourself. Take a few other pieces and see what kind of collectors flock to your portal.

If you want monuments to your side then you need to actually win your war. That is the lesson here.
Why did they ever think they could lose their war but carry on as if they had won?
Adam Young
"City workers who took the monument down were seen “wearing bulletproof vests, military-style helmets and scarves that obscured their faces,” according to the Associated Press. Police were also present to barricade the entry points to the monument while snipers were stationed on the parking garage of a hotel overlooking the monument."
This. The confederates were nothing more than separatists and traitors.
Joseph Ramirez
Where are they going to put the monuments? They should at least be moved to a museum/battleground/cemetery.
Aiden King
>those wanting to preserve the history does that mean we can tear down all those modern reminders of our past, too?
Tyler White
Sounds like something the locals really wanted to have done. Happy to live in a free country where the local government literally dismantles our culture under threat of death.
Wyatt Allen

Can we start having a new orleans crime and politics general?
Police scanners and all?
Mafia history?
Sharing canun food recepies and talking about the pol tier baiyu lifestyle?
Kayden King
So you support the destruction of White culture? Got it.Good goy.
James Scott
This is total fucking bullshit. The Confederacy was 100% within its rights to secede. Rewriting history is a mistake.

Well burgerbros, it's time for you to rewrite (((their))) history, ain't that right? :^)

America is too young to have history. Unless you are talking about natives.

It's pretty sad. I understand if they would want to change what's written on hem or something, especially the obelisk I could see being pretty offensive.
At least spare Robert E Lee though, he doesn't deserve this
Kayden Gomez

Jeremiah Sanchez
I proposed to my wife in Jackson square since it would be her new last name. This saddens me.
We should acknowledge all our history, good and bad. If you ignore the parts of history you don't like, you're doomed to repeat it.
Also, can we get some Malcolm X statues taken down? He was racist as fuck.
Luke Johnson

owning a slave is disgusting, especially a black one. why would you want a thing like that in your house (or yard)? touching your food and children? blecch
Daniel Butler
cans for food preservation were created in the early 1800s, faggot.

What if a leftist said something like, "How are you equating racism with fighting racism? They aren't equal things."

We will not be compelled to leave the scene of history, numbnuts. Without whitey, it's back to mud huts for you, Khalil Tyronious Lopez.

Would be pointless....the scanners are dead because no one calls the police. When police are called they dont do anything.

Josiah Miller
The one they just took down is their excuse to take down the rest, which are basically inoffensive to all but the most assblasted of libshits.

Mason Smith
Good good, let us fix history.
>Remove all war monuments, history should teach people that we are loving and caring. >Build statues for minorities, replace the Statue of Liberty with a black woman in a Hijab. >Replace the statues of George "Hitler" Washington with ones of brave transracial leaders like Rachel Dolezal. >Build statues of girls and transgender girls standing up to the evil white man in every city.
Then maybe people will finally understand that every white leader was literally Hitler.
Hunter Carter
There's nothing crueler that the callous hand of the conqueror. Vanquished peoples, like the people of the South, have a responsibility to preserve their culture and history until such a time that they can breathe the air of freedom again. I pray for Dixie, evil Yank cunts destroy everything.
Reminder that based Grant expelled the Jews from his military district in 1862 for their conniving with confederates
Grayson Brown
Can you just put all the niggers in one state, call it new Africa and build the wall around that instead?
Liam Turner
Not to mention, they allege that many historical figures were homosexual with no proof other than their absence of a wife.
Jason James
Because it has always been seen as a war between brothers you illiterate fuck. Robert lee and beauregard were repatriated and should be commemorated as great americans
Jordan Peterson
>british education Thanks for the laugh, my little airstrip
Evan Taylor
What's the problem with removing the statues? The South lost, you're commemorating the side whose military failed.
The South lost, their arrogance got the best of them. If such a small population owned slaves in the South, then why didn't the common Southerner revolt against the wealthy?
Blake Bennett
Why do everything we ever touched turn out to be filled with cucks?

Yeah, it sucks when it's *your* art and culture being destroyed, huh?
I disagree with it on principle but it kinda serves you fucking right.
Jason Jackson
What's done is done senpai :^) The South lost. Lots of losers reliving the past. Sad!
Jackson Foster
>what's wrong with erasing history and its impact on us today?
Nolan Martinez
It's not about who won. It's about preserving history and honoring men who fought for their State and for a cause they believed in.
Thankfully Richmond still has balls and refuses to remove Confederate monuments.

Idk man, seems that you've got it all figured out
Anthony Butler
Somebody should go and destroy the memorials to black criminals then. Starting with Trayvon's and Brown's.
Dylan Hill
History changes? I really don't understand your emotional attachment to these statues. They are of a side whose views are not represented anymore because they lost. >inb4 cuck pls Sup Forums admit you're defeat

Camden Powell
They really REALLY want to be fired upon and want the Photo op that the local mayor arranged, I fully guarantee these photos will be a bullet point on the mayors political resume for national office in the future.
The decision has absolutely nothing to do with the average Louisianan or New Orleaner; most of whom couldn't have even told you that these statues exist or where they were. Most of these statues are in obscure parks or locations which makes the whole thing even more bizarre and transparently political.

In that case, then we should start tearing down all vietnam war memorials as well.

there won't be much left of anything. just imagine a nog country getting their hands on hydrogen bombs.

I don't agree with it, but the south did lose. When you lose, you're at the mercy of the victors.
