So far in this current cycle, the statues of Confederates, Christopher Columbus, George Washington, a Spanish missionary, U.S. Grant, a Texas Ranger, and an Oregon pioneer, to name a few, have either been torn down by mobs or removed by officials who have surrendered to the swarming Woke activists.
It's not easy to decide who is more contemptible, the thugs pulling down the memorials or the authorities who are allowing the crimes to occur.
As Ed Driscoll blogged Tuesday on Instapundit, "As with all previous revolutions, eliminating statues of dead people is merely the precursor to eliminating living people deemed by the left to be, as Hillary would say, 'deplorable.'".
The progressive left "Search for more enemies of the past may soon take progressives down hypocritical pathways they would prefer not to walk."
Statues came down, Chavez didn't want the history displayed.
"Do not worry too much about the statues which are now coming down. They mean surprisingly little. Worry more about the ones they are soon going to be putting up, and what they will represent. Perhaps our grandchildren will find the courage to pull them down."
We won't go down that ugly road. We Could Use Your Help.
