New York City is considering a measure that would essentially remove statues of Founding Fathers such as George Washington, all while facing a migrant crisis costing taxpayers billions.
According to a list found in New York City’s council agenda for Tuesday, September 19, officials will consider a bill that would: …require the Public Design Commission (PDC) to publish a plan to remove works of art on City property that depict a person who owned enslaved persons or directly benefitted economically from slavery, or who participated in systemic crimes against indigenous peoples or other crimes against humanity.

FTA...'directly benefitted economically from slavery, or who participated in systemic crimes against indigenous peoples or other crimes against humanity.'
Well, there is an organization in our country that has done everything above and that's the democrat party. So, when will the party be banned and all current members have all their properties confiscated and then put in jail for crimes against humanity.

To be replaced by papier-mache images of the unknown enemy alien, at enormous expense.

Well...........if that is their plan, they can put up a statue of ME. I've never owned a slave and haven't even ever met one. Oh, white people are ineligible? Dang, that lets me out.

Frankly, considering the state of New York right now, I think that's a good idea. Washington deserves better and he won't get it in New York.

Democrats seem to forget they were are party of slavery. They fought a civil war to keep slavery. They argued the slaves would be better off in the care of their masters. After they lost the war and slavery ended the Democrats created the Ku Klux Klan to terrorize the newly freed slaves. In 1866 Republicans desegregated the government and the military. It stayed that way until 1912 when the first progressive democrat Woodrow Wilson re-segregated the government and the military. Racist Democrats across the south created all those Jim Crow laws. In the 1950's the Supreme Court ruled segregation was unconstitutional. Democrat Governors stood in doorways of schools to block black students from getting in. The Democrat party always has and always will be the party of racism.

My ancestor owned a lot of slaves. I would like to apologize for his part in bringing blacks into this country. If he and others had not embraced slavery and importing millions of blacks into the US, we would only need half the courts, half the law enforcement officers, half the prisons and half the welfare payments that the taxpayers have to “contribute “. Slavery has ended up the worst thing that ever happened to this country crime wise.

No wonder Gotham is in trouble. This is how they want to spend tax dollars - meanwhile, the streets look like a third world hellhole. Good work, guys.

The usual suspects never get enough of crying about slavery even though not one of them ever suffered from it.
Pretty soon the illegal Hispanics in New York will be in control, see how far their crying goes then.

I'm considering a lawsuit against the City for treason against our history and traditions. We would not have had a country without Washington. Had Washington been the man they paint him, we would have had a bear absolute monarchy and spent the next fifty years fighting each other chaoticly. I would have made the French Revolution a joke.
I've heard it said recently, that Democrats are not true Americans.
I believe it.

Maybe they should put up a statue of some African chucking a spear at some poor other SOB to celebrate their superior competence. Which is what they would still be doing if western people had not arrived and given them som infrastructure, like railroads, electricity, telecommunications, etc, etc.

I'm sure there are a few lesbian cop killers whose statues can replace them...

Then let's tear down Howard university. The guy who founded that place so that blacks could study to get a degree put on his uniform and hunted down every American Indian that he could find and killed them. Last time I looked that's called killing indigenous people. So, let's tear down that university.

FDR imprisoned Japanese Americans and stole their land. Take down his statue.
Lincoln said he would keep slavery if it restored the Union. Take his image off of the penny.
MLK was an adulterer. Take his name off of every street named after him.
See how easy this is.
