Go to another country if the first POTUS and a founding father of our country offends you so much that you box him in and out of view.

Is anybody really surprised by what the commies think of these days?

And this is why racism will always be part of our landscape.

Blacks refuse to let it go.

Do they cover up all the MLK Blvd signs on Washington's birthday?

But why was it covered, that's what I want to know.

Does that mean we can cover all of MLK's statues the other 364?

Only in SC can someone be so racist and get a free pass like that.

I thought the NAACP was boycotting us. I wish they would do a better job, there sure were a lot of them here for that rally.

I dont know why any of you are shocked. They have been renaming schools from Washington, Jefferson ect to MalcomX, MLK bla bla for years. They have a right to do it, but it shows a lack of respect for American culture I think. I think the US is being more and more split apart. It will break up into smaller nations down the road. We cant stay this large with this diverse of a population for too long. Just does not work out.

I wonder if their permit included boxing the statue.

I am offended.

Quite frankly, they deserved to have a group tear that down, and it would have been VERY difficult for me to resist.

What a bunch of bullshit.

Thanks, my blood pressure was doing good so far today.

I've been convinced for a couple of years now. I would already be gone if there was anywhere left to go that the left hadn't fucked up. Disrespectful cocksuckers!

That's the most racist bullshit I have yet to see here in America. I'm about to not give a fuck anymore.

People are shocked that the NAACP is a racist organization?? No wayyyy.

Like it or not, there is a considerable number of people in this country who view George Washington as a hypocritical, slave-owning, rich, dead white guy.

Where is the outrage from the media ?

Where is the condemnation from our current president ?

I love America , but I hate alot of (so called) Americans.

Just imagine if someone covered a statue of MLK at a rally for any event.

Posted: 1/18/2011 10:47:18 AM EDT

[#38]

I guess if it's their rally they can do as they want. Me, I would have chosen a location where there was no statue that I found offensive then I wouldn't have a big friggin box on stage upstaging the speakers but whatever. Maybe they should skip the Robert E Lee park next year and just have it at the Hampton Inn convention hall.

Or, the boxing-in was completely intentional to send a message, and the location of the rally was picked with reason.

What message, piss off whitey or that George Washington was racist? Feel free to elaborate.

The thing that makes me even more angry than the media not calling them out on it (so far) is that IF they do eventually run this story, the racist fuckstains at the NAACP will just issue some "oh, sorry, it was a background for pictures, we didn't mean anything but agree we coulda done it different. Sorry. Kill whitey" statement and get away with it.

What could be more disrespectful to the memory of MLK than to insult the country he fought so hard to equalize?
