>A statue of Roger B. Taney, the first Catholic to serve on the U.S. Supreme Court, was removed from the Maryland Statehouse, after objections were made to honoring the author of the Dred Scott decision, which upheld slavery. The removal came after the violent protests in Charlottesville, Virginia, last weekend, with clashes between white nationalists and counter-protesters which left one person dead.
>Sprinklers suddenly activated at 1:47 am with no apparent reason, thus getting everyone wet.
Good. Every statue removed, every man fired from his job or banned from his school because he held rather moderate, even cucky opinions, generates another soldier in the army of the righteous.
Affirm and Amplify.

>Funny thing is, Taney is a Maryland native, also note that Taney was personally against slavery – calling it “a blot on our national character” – and had freed his own slaves early in his life. Taney also was pro-Unionist, and continued to serve on the Supreme Court during the Civil War.

>"You can take my statue down, but 2 more will take my place"
You trickster you! I googled that to see if it was real... Turns out, doesn't real.

Nevermind that the Dred Scott Decision galvanized the Abolitionist Movement.
Nevermind that Taney was doing his job and interpreting the Constitution as it was in 1857.
Nevermind that he called out Lincoln for his violation of the Bill of Rights in the prosecution of the Civil War early on.

>Joan of Arc this one absolutely blows my mind but I guess I'm also not surprised because niggers are utter scum of the earth

How far are they going to go with this? Are they going to get to the point where they plant c4s in the lincoln memorial and CNN says it was progressive and at the same time blame some nazis must have done it?
Luis Harris

Nathan White

I love the caveat the left uses every time the left destroys culture and history.

They won't get it because they're owned by globalists.
