People are too anxious over what tomorrow will bring it strikes me as bad timing to erase the past which is the anchor in an uncertain world. The past is a comfort blanket and until people have the self-confidence to face tomorrow it's wiser to leave that blanket where it is.

Take that blanket away and there's not only tears there's driving a car into a crowd of people Jihadi style.

In the context of broken and unloving homes all the symbols of patriotism and past are being doubled down upon as an almost surrogate family. These symbols are a substitute for loving relationships you're playing with fire by removing them. Having failed to find love amongst their own humankind they turn to the less judgemental world of inanimate objects.

Fascism provided the "soldierly" atmosphere yearned for by the survivors of the Great War and Trumpism provides the similar "paternal" atmosphere in the nation of bad, weak and absent fathers and his lost boys. From the heart of the listless comes this desire to regiment and coordinate society, they just want to be in a controlled environment and they seek to reconfigure society along the lines of the military.

Oh and aspergers. There's a lot more aspergers on the right, the condition is abolutist and doesn't understand a plural society or why other people think differently. The sperg society would ideally be a fief on top of a mountain with a population so samey that not one inidividual has to compromise with anyone other individual ever. Make anything masculine/male/paternal enough and you arrive at aspergers, aspergers made us better at hunting and worse at argiculture/civilisation. Aspergers is a primordial strength, a pig-headed determination for nothing and no one to stand in your way.

Don't remove the statue. At one time political correctness had the power to destroy the right and it chose not to because the power to do something is not a reason to do it. The right would tear down your statues and burn your books in a second if they could so why would you want to be like them? An eye for an eye is not the way of a liberal.

There is some truth in your words and some tendency to exaggerate. I am a high functioning Autistic. At age 25 I had a moment of revelation when I realized not everyone as smart as me. Prior to that moment I couldn't understand why people didn't get it. Did not seem to get anything - LOL. The fact is I did not get I was autistic. I was in my late fifies before I figured that one out. LOL. Anyway I managed to stay out of prison which is more than I say for my fellow elderly austistics I met along the way. These individuals still have sharp elbows even I have troubles dealing with, and I try to keep in touch in them because they need someone able to meet them on their intellectual plain and is non judgemental.

Remove everything of your past and you will cut off your own history and your roots. a nation without roots is lost. don 't be silly, it' s the goal the negationists hope to reach. please don' t give up, this looks like a systematic eradication of the history of your land.

How old is France? Did you preserve the structures used by Homo erectus and the Neanderthals? These civil war statues were not knocked over with a wrecking ball, but were carefully removed from their tall pillars. They are still intact.

OldeGuy: I lived in Seattle for 15 years. The Fremont neighbor is wonderfully diverse part of the city. OH and by the way, the Lenin statue is privately owned on private property and is UP for Sale - $250,000 or best offer. Care to make a bid? You can have Lenin on your front lawn.

Don't want him,even if the paid me that quarter million.laugh

OldeGuy: Tell me, sir, do you write these dialogs with a crayon? Is that how you got your name?

The propensity of the human race to label everything and anything, often in derogatory terms, has always struck me strange. But hey, if labeling everything with your crayon makes you happy, then by all means, label away. That is your first amendment right. Keep in mind, you can be sued for slander if you go too far.The first amendment is not a permit to say anything you please.

Unite the Right had a permit to assemble, Antifa showed up and violence ensued. Even before all the facts are in, the presumption is that UTR was attacked. There's no issue here of color, just of law. If the local quilting bee had a permitted event there and then clashed with a mob of scrapbookers who showed up to protest, same deal.

Virginia's Governor, Clinton ally and former DNC Chair Terry McAuliffe, defended keeping the police out of the fray even after violence began. Secretary of Public Safety (and Virginia Democrat Party Chair) Brian Moran said "From our plan, to ensure the safety of our citizens and property, it went extremely well."

sure Terry,it went extremely well herding a few Rightists straight into the Jaws of ANTIFA!
Just hope sometime soon,you Trash will have to answer for your Divisive Actions!

Here is how I look at it. History isn't always pretty! Yes, we had some dark days in our history, tearing down statutes, does not change things, it just represses the truth. While the left decries the right's intolerance...the left is proving to share the same values, when it pulls down statutes.

as always,
