His gun was a piece of shit.

Fuck a bunch of idiots that espouse diversity and equality, but are too stupid to see the irony of them discriminating against an Asian guy because of his name.

My question: when all the statues are gone and our history is cleansed, what comes nest on the list that has to disappear to appease the "activists?"

I think you are overly concerned. This is all a game. This shit has popped up a year before every midterm and presidential election in recent history.

~2010- tea (bag) party

~2012- Occutards

~2014- BLM

I'm more concerned that the douchenugget in the video has a plastic bitch gun. AK47s are garbage. They just look cool if you are a Che wannabe.

Now if he had a man's gun like an M1 Garand or an M14, I'd be like... damn ANTIFA, you got your shit wired tight.

I'm all for diversity if it involves interracial lust/sex.  Sing it Marty, lol.

Who knows or really cares?  Activism has shaped our history, and remains everlasting.   Plus we're tribal and perhaps we need a tribe.

Marty was kinda pretentious. Bobby did it better. I'm sure he got all kinds of strange ass.

It's now going beyond civil war monuments

Let them get more ridiculous as time goes by. Less people will take them serious. There is a statue on Fort Bragg of a WW2 paratrooper, called Iron  Mike. It is a tribute to WW2 airborne forces. During the war years, the majority of paratroopers were Caucasian and Hispanic . There was only one small battalion of Africans.  The African unit saw no combat, and the Armed Forces were not desegregated until 1948. Therefore, in the warped mentality driving these protests, the statue is racist.
I'd enjoy anti fash protest at Fort Bragg.

Not only, as the great Muddy one says, has activism shaped our history (before his famous midnight ride Paul Revere was involved in various other forms of activism) it is a valuable and necessary function of democracy.

The right to petition government to redress grievances and protest in the public square is fundamental to a free people. I'm actually kind of pissed off that there are adults in this country that either don't know this or worse, don't accept it as true. That there are people in both those camps is a great indicator that we live with some dumb motherfuckers and there is a real possibility that we may one day see a true authoritarian style government take hold because of it.

99% of those protesting the monuments are peaceful and do so within the constraints of the law. But the media focuses on the tiny minority that are there to start trouble and yet all the great thinkers on this board that cry about fake news when it doesn't fit their narrative run with that as if it's the whole story.

Personally I think the monuments are funny, who puts up monuments to a bunch of losers?  I wouldn't have ever thought much more about them but I know a lot of people do, people that are meant to be diminished by them. I would hate to be in their shoes when their child asks who the guy on the horse in front of the court house or capital building is and have to explain that was one of the people that lived his life trying to keep your great, great grandparents slaves.

What will be the new name of Fort Bragg?

Braxton Bragg was a senior officer of the Confederate States Army.
