More tolerance from the left...
Baltimore’s 225-year-old monument to Christopher Columbus, said to be the oldest in the country and the world dedicated to the explorer that is still standing, has been severely vandalized.
A video posted today shows someone smashing the inscription at the base of the 44-foot-tall obelisk located at the intersection of Harford Road and Walther Avenue, across from Herring Run Park. This morning the words on the statue – Sacred to the Memory of Chris. Columbus Oct. XII MDCC VIIIC – were unreadable, a hole smashed in the stone. “Racism: Tear it down,” one sign leaning on the monument base says. “The future is racial and economic justice,” said another sign that was lying in the grass. The vandalism comes in the wake of intense controversy, across the country and in Baltimore, over monuments to the Confederacy and the city-ordered removal of four Confederate-related monuments last week.

This is what happens when law breaks down.
You have masked terrorists at night destroying things, blowing things up, and burning things down. Antifa is the same as the KKK night riders... they just terrorize for opposite colors. |

The story of Christopher Columbus will be known only among the old folks.
The history of America will be rewritten in a couple of decades. Plymouth Rock and the Mayflower. European settlers escaping British religious oppression or Star Destroyer of the Imperial Force. Niña, Pinta, and the Santa María were Spanish-owned boats sailed by Italian navigators or Darth Vader and his two wingmen taking over the galaxy. Elvis Presley, the first black man trapped in the body of a white man without even knowing it. Bruce Jenner, the first woman to win the men's decathlon in the Olympics. Neil Armstrong, the first cis-non-queer-non-asexual-non-pre-op-transsexual homosapien to walk on the moon. It would have been easier to say man but things will be different in the future. |
