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.

Only the present matters.

History is to be rewritten for the glory of the Reich for social justice.

Not exactly.

What do you think would happen if a bunch of white guys fucked up a mlk statue?

We don't have a breakdown in law.

We have selective enforcement of law.

We'll probably find out in a couple months if Antifa doesn't get shut down.

I'm sure there will be white racists who don masks and start adopting Antifa tactics.

One of these Antifa shits the other day said a line that really summarizes them: "history changes every day."

They rewrite things to their current needs, to justify their current actions, and to support their current demands and attacks.

Ah yes. The single most important man to what we consider to be modern western society, a footnote.

Seems to be that you're pushing the same crap the left is pushing. Disparage our past. Push for a new world where every thing good we've done is pit aside because there are a few bad apples.

Really. You should be going after cortez the killer. He made Columbus look like a volunteer for the big brothers program. And if you demonize cortez, you literally invalidate ever country in North and South America outside of the us and Canada as genocidal maniacs.

If toou actually look at the stats, there are larger pure native populations in the us and Canada. Where we at least didn't breed the natives out of existence. Which is actually considered genocide to bodies like the UN.

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.
NiñaPinta, 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.

Sure he was...that's why in the last few years this has been revealed.  The people who knew him and the people who built monuments to him and kept them up for the last few hundred years were all wrong.....

You do not have to CELEBRATE/HONOR the bad apples. Yeah, he discovered the Caribbean. In the process he was a monster. This is not re-rewriting history, this is uncovering the true history and refusing to continue to celebrate his "accomplishments". Hell he wasn't even the first guy to sight land. He refused to pay the reward he offered for the person who did.
