Robert E Lee, Stonewall Jackson, a dying confederate soldier in his mothers arms.
|
|
By:
A monument for soldiers and sailors removed.
|
|
By:
It is as disgraceful and as sacreligious a thing as any country can do.
|
|
By:
Why?
“The idea that the American family has to embrace figures like Robert E Lee, or Stonewall Jackson, who were fundamentally committed to enslaving black people in perpetuity … These people are not heroes.” |
|
By:
The American people should watch how they treat their fallen soldiers, how they disrespect them and their people and their memory .
|
|
By:
|
|
By:
None of these soldiers passed away peacefully, their deaths were violent enough and came when they were young,
came with terrifying speed . |
|
By:
Well they have taken the memorials away, I couldn't have done it, I would be ashamed to death to do so.
|
|
By:
are there no right wing animal activists. Not sure if those nutjobs swing to the left or right politically. I know plenty of right wing people who love their pets so why not them?
Do some research, they had plenty of previous history, violent behavior at anti capitalist marches etc, yep leftwing nutjobs alright, still nice attempt to sweep it under the carpet again, along with the dead Dallas police officers murder by BLM supporter. |

Why? they died so that black people would be slaves! What is there to be proud of? They lost!

Why? they died so that black people would be slaves! What is there to be proud of? They lost! Another one who does not know the cause of the Civil War. Claims moral superiority yet promotes violence as long it is on 'Nazis'. |

Theresa May condemns far-right views; PM says she ‘sees no equivalence’ between those with fascist views and those who oppose them but does not name president.
|
|
By:
Of course she should condemn the far right. As Trump did. As everyone has.
|
|
By:
I haven't
|
|
By:
Jeremy Corbyn's statement about Venezuela when he said: ‘What I condemn is the violence that has been done by any side, by all sides, in this.’
He said the same when asked to comdemn the IRA. Comdemns all violence. They both get into trouble for this with the media. |

By:
will they be taking down memorials to their war dead in Russia next, those who served under a murdering dictator responsible for the deaths of millions and enslavement and torture of more?
|
|
By:
who went on to enslave not only his own people but many millions more in eastern Europe.
should the Russian war memorials be taken down in every Russian city and town? |
|
By:
starved them, imprisoned them, tortured them, murdered them, disenfranchised them
should those memorials of the Russian war dead be taken down? |
|
By:
|
|
By:
Semantics and word play from IT that is
|
|
By:
perhaps we can see what some of those who think America should take away its war memorials think regarding Russia`s war memorials, what do they think should happen?
|
|
By:
InsiderTrader, the whole purpose of your studying protest footage for twelve hours was to establish equivalence between the two factions at Charlottsville; and you have spent many further hours on this thread on the same mission.
|
|
By:
ah here`s studyform, perhaps he will answer.
his record so far is not very good in answering |
|
By:
he is very quick to criticise and comment on America, Russia? let`s see
|
|
By:
What is this 'equivalence' everyone in the media is banging on about as their new talking point?
Sounds like some SJW bs out of a first year uni ethics course. The white supremacists were bad. The torch parade dreadfull. The murder horrific. Because of this we are banned from condemning violence by Antifa? Not just banned for condemning it but we also have to accept that punching a Nazi is ok. If one counter protestor had killed someone instead would we then not have allowed to condemn the white supremacists? |
|
By:
I asked you before lfc.
What have I not answered? Perhaps you can answer that. |
|
By:
well lets see you answer the question I have just asked, that will do for starters.
|
|
By:
We can help you with your last question IT. This is what "equilalence" looks like:
One side go for a peaceful rally that has a permit because they want to protest at a patriot's statue being taken away. Another side comes to protest at the peaceful rally and it seems they had no permit. The police should have stopped them. |
|
By:
|
|
By:
then I will ask again do you think someone who is guilty of racist discrimination in her job should have to face court and jail.
or be given a well paid high level job by Obama? |
|
By:
then a third question, do you think that the leftists and liberals at this rally who were guilty of violence should face a court prosecution?
|
|
By:
The police should have kept the two sides apart.
Both sides said the police did a terrible job. But that is a different issue. Why do we have to accept that it is ok to punch a 'nazi'? Why are we not allowed to condemn that as well? Those are my questions. |
|
By:
Why are you an apologist for these thugs? They beat people up and worse because of the colour of their skin, their religious faith, their sexuality and you are questioning the right to punch them back? why?
|
|
By:
so, that's Russian war memorials
racist behaviour violence from leftists and communists and liberals |
|
By:
Whoops forgot to add my bit
![]() Those nasty Nazis sound remarkably like some of those from the religion of peace ![]() |
|
By:
those are 3 simple questions studyform
if you don't wish to answer, again, that's fine |
|
By:
I've answered this loads of times lfc.
I couldn't give a stuff about the statue. Or any other statue. The bleedin' statue doesn't matter. The statue was an excuse for a bit of agro. Which was what they got. They didn't care about the statue either. I cannot make this ANY simpler. This statue, the statue in Russia or wherever else you're rambling about, the statue of the mannequin pis in Brussels, none of them, I couldn't give a stuff. NO-ONE could, except apparently you. IS THAT CLEAR ENOUGH? Obama isn't in power, I know nothing of the person or job you're talking about. Loads of people get paid too much for dodgy jobs. It could well be wrong, I don't know. NO, I don't think the opposition to the Nazi supporting 'protesters' should go to jail, I think the Nazis shoiuldn't be allowed to 'protest'. This thread was about the "Alt Right" rally. not all this other rubbish. However, consider your questions answered. |

By:
It appears now that Insidious is a Nazi sympathiser.
It is apparently wrong says Mr Insidious trader to punch a nazi in the face! Perhaps we should have invited Adolph to tea with the King? Why doess he condone these swastika wearing armed thugs who only went into town to cause trouble? Why would you want to protect them? Again I ask Insider Trader are you getting paid to spill your bile here? |

Why are you an apologist for these thugs? They beat people up and worse because of the colour of their skin, their religious faith, their sexuality and you are questioning the right to punch them back? why? To defend yourself of course. Is that what Antifa do? Act in self-defense? |
