1. Next they will be trying to pull down Mount Rushmore…

2. This doesn't surprise me. Most of us knew this was going to happen years ago. First it was Confederate statues, then Columbus and now Jefferson statues. Next will be Washington and Lincoln. They wont stop until every statue is down. The inevitable decline of the United States is well underway, has been for decades. Were now seeing the actions & consequences of two generations of indoctrinated folks ripping down everything. Since no one is perfect and if society wishes and continues to look at the bad in someone then the obvious solution is to pull down every statue in the U.S. No one is off limits anymore, MLK statues must come down, George Floyd statues must come down too, Obama statues as well. Two can play that game, they're imperfect people too. This won't end and is just the beginning. Theres simply no pleasing anarchists and revisionists.

3. America is eating itself from the inside out

4. When they kept on questioning Jesus, He straightened up and said to them, “Let any one of you who is without sin be the first to throw a stone at her.” -John 8:7

5. The Democratic Communist party is trying to erase history. That is the first step in Communism. Lets Go Brandon.

6. Yeah, Thomas Jefferson only created America. The country in which this mayor calls home, and is a free woman. We should put a statue of George Floyd up, that would be much better.

7. DUDE INVENTED THE SWIVEL CHAIR GIVE HIM A STATUE JUST FOR THAT

8. Ok let's talk about how their own people sold them to whites and let's talk about how blacks and Africans in general had slaves for over 4000 years lmfao

9. Erasure of history. Soon they will rewrite it

10. 🤢🤮🥴

11. they're sick in the head of hate.

12. I vote to take down the Floyd statue first!

13. It's not just about protecting feelings. It's about dismantling the institutions of the these United States and rebuilding them in their image.

14. If you haven't left yet. Socially, economically… The writing is on the wall. Get out while there is still time. 😔

15. Go ahead "erase it"…LOL…Those who erase "forget" history are condemned to repeat it…

16. ALL SLAVE OWNERS WERE DEMOCRAT!! Democrats Voted For Slavery!! Republicans Voted AGAINST SLAVERY!! So why are people still voting democrat?????????

17. This is completely ridiculous

18. Trump was right again. His predictions becoming reality seem to be a regular occurrence now.

19. As an American this is honestly depressing to see. Our heritage is getting torn away piece by piece

20. I guess all of this BS is going to make white people like black people more?

21. I wonder what they'll do when they hear that Africans sold other Africans to the space holders.

22. Next on the agenda: "No borders, no walls, no USA at all."

23. I guess she missed the part where Jefferson wrote the Bill of Rights

24. Everyone of every race, religion and political leaning should be alarmed at the removal of a statue of the man who: abolished the Atlantic slave trade, inspired countries across the world to overthrow monarchs and tyrants, ensured our religious freedoms and advocated for our freedom of speech.

25. In Congress, July 4, 1776
    The unanimous Declaration of the thirteen united States of America, When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.
    We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.–That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, –That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.–Such has been the patient sufferance of these Colonies; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former Systems of Government. The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States. To prove this, let Facts be submitted to a candid world.
    He has refused his Assent to Laws, the most wholesome and necessary for the public good.
    He has forbidden his Governors to pass Laws of immediate and pressing importance, unless suspended in their operation till his Assent should be obtained; and when so suspended, he has utterly neglected to attend to them.
    He has refused to pass other Laws for the accommodation of large districts of people, unless those people would relinquish the right of Representation in the Legislature, a right inestimable to them and formidable to tyrants only.
    He has called together legislative bodies at places unusual, uncomfortable, and distant from the depository of their public Records, for the sole purpose of fatiguing them into compliance with his measures.
    He has dissolved Representative Houses repeatedly, for opposing with manly firmness his invasions on the rights of the people.
    He has refused for a long time, after such dissolutions, to cause others to be elected; whereby the Legislative powers, incapable of Annihilation, have returned to the People at large for their exercise; the State remaining in the mean time exposed to all the dangers of invasion from without, and convulsions within.
    He has endeavoured to prevent the population of these States; for that purpose obstructing the Laws for Naturalization of Foreigners; refusing to pass others to encourage their migrations hither, and raising the conditions of new Appropriations of Lands.
    He has obstructed the Administration of Justice, by refusing his Assent to Laws for establishing Judiciary powers.
    He has made Judges dependent on his Will alone, for the tenure of their offices, and the amount and payment of their salaries.
    He has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harrass our people, and eat out their substance.
    He has kept among us, in times of peace, Standing Armies without the Consent of our legislatures.
    He has affected to render the Military independent of and superior to the Civil power.
    He has combined with others to subject us to a jurisdiction foreign to our constitution, and unacknowledged by our laws; giving his Assent to their Acts of pretended Legislation:
    For Quartering large bodies of armed troops among us:
    For protecting them, by a mock Trial, from punishment for any Murders which they should commit on the Inhabitants of these States:
    For cutting off our Trade with all parts of the world:
    For imposing Taxes on us without our Consent:
    For depriving us in many cases, of the benefits of Trial by Jury:
    For transporting us beyond Seas to be tried for pretended offences
    For abolishing the free System of English Laws in a neighbouring Province, establishing therein an Arbitrary government, and enlarging its Boundaries so as to render it at once an example and fit instrument for introducing the same absolute rule into these Colonies:
    For taking away our Charters, abolishing our most valuable Laws, and altering fundamentally the Forms of our Governments:
    For suspending our own Legislatures, and declaring themselves invested with power to legislate for us in all cases whatsoever.
    He has abdicated Government here, by declaring us out of his Protection and waging War against us.
    He has plundered our seas, ravaged our Coasts, burnt our towns, and destroyed the lives of our people.
    He is at this time transporting large Armies of foreign Mercenaries to compleat the works of death, desolation and tyranny, already begun with circumstances of Cruelty & perfidy scarcely paralleled in the most barbarous ages, and totally unworthy the Head of a civilized nation.
    He has constrained our fellow Citizens taken Captive on the high Seas to bear Arms against their Country, to become the executioners of their friends and Brethren, or to fall themselves by their Hands.
    He has excited domestic insurrections amongst us, and has endeavoured to bring on the inhabitants of our frontiers, the merciless Indian Savages, whose known rule of warfare, is an undistinguished destruction of all ages, sexes and conditions.
    In every stage of these Oppressions We have Petitioned for Redress in the most humble terms: Our repeated Petitions have been answered only by repeated injury. A Prince whose character is thus marked by every act which may define a Tyrant, is unfit to be the ruler of a free people.
    Nor have We been wanting in attentions to our Brittish brethren. We have warned them from time to time of attempts by their legislature to extend an unwarrantable jurisdiction over us. We have reminded them of the circumstances of our emigration and settlement here. We have appealed to their native justice and magnanimity, and we have conjured them by the ties of our common kindred to disavow these usurpations, which, would inevitably interrupt our connections and correspondence. They too have been deaf to the voice of justice and of consanguinity. We must, therefore, acquiesce in the necessity, which denounces our Separation, and hold them, as we hold the rest of mankind, Enemies in War, in Peace Friends.
    We, therefore, the Representatives of the united States of America, in General Congress, Assembled, appealing to the Supreme Judge of the world for the rectitude of our intentions, do, in the Name, and by Authority of the good People of these Colonies, solemnly publish and declare, That these United Colonies are, and of Right ought to be Free and Independent States; that they are Absolved from all Allegiance to the British Crown, and that all political connection between them and the State of Great Britain, is and ought to be totally dissolved; and that as Free and Independent States, they have full Power to levy War, conclude Peace, contract Alliances, establish Commerce, and to do all other Acts and Things which Independent States may of right do. And for the support of this Declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes and our sacred Honor.

26. Tyranny

27. First off, the nepotism is disgusting.

    Second, people don't hold certain founders in reverance because they owned slaves. Most if not all Americans know that many founders owned slaves and see the cruel irony that the producers of the Declaration and Constitution did not live up to the ideals and principles of those documents they wrote. We as an extremely diverse nation, with not much in common outside a shared belief in the Declaration and Constitution, honor the founding fathers for producing the documents and government which make it possible to correct past wrongs and create a more perfect union.

    Third, I will never vote for a Republican candidate but at the same time, I will only vote for independents, when they run, because I will no longer support a Democratic Party consumed with identity politics.

28. Next up, the Lincoln memorial. BLM!

29. Lots of things need removing. Everyday I see something that just shouldn't be there, but I refrain. You're welcome. 😁

30. This is how empires collapse. This is what ISIS and the nazi's did. Destroy and try to erase history. These people are worthless and useless like all governments

31. Screw all you new york politics for trying to erase United States history!

32. the tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots & tyrants. it is it's natural manure ~ Thomas Jefferson

33. Remember when, 4 years ago, Trump warned they were gonna come after US History figures like George Washington and Thomas Jefferson?

34. New York city is a disgrace to this nation.

35. We are witnessing the final hours of the US. (A concerned citizen from the Old World)

36. The removal of Thomas Jefferson's statue is nothing but anti-white propaganda started by far-leftists.

37. The races should have separate countries.

38. Trump was right.
