I agree...the war is multi-pronged. Tearing down history is only one of the prongs.

Seattle and Chad is another.
Antifa is another.
BLM is another.
Fauci and his lockdown was another.

It seems they're all linked. That's why you find left-leaning politicians giving into mob demands. They wanted this.

Seriously, you're eating and having a nice time. Then all hell breaks loose. Someone tried to leave and was prevented from doing so. They were probably afraid. These are mad times.

If you're communing with the Lord He'll order your steps. Last night I dreamt about a backlash. I had three dreams in succession with different messages. The backlash was the second. Each depicted a noticeable slide that worsened with the next. I understood what He was telling me. We're moving overseas next year. But I may need to tweak my schedule. I'm watching and listening to Him.

His monuments weren't meant to commemorate those dark events. Protestors should make their own effigies of those and destroy them, as is done in other countries.

It was chuckle worthy. Our local FoxNews radio affiliate played the actual audio, recorded at the scene. It bordered on lunacy. The guy went on and on with his rant while his thugs held everyone hostage.

You can find articles where MLK watched and laughed as a women was raped. I don't know if it's true. Some may object to his statue based upon those grounds. Just saying.

Other countries are tearing down and defacing statues too. The French are absolutely going to town over this also.

Hopefully everyone would object to his statue based on those grounds, if it's true. I'd need to know that it was true and not just part of a smear campaign, though.

If a broadly based attack on white people happened the backlash would be horrendous. No one does backlash better than white people. It would be a tragedy of epic proportions for the black community. Let us pray this thing doesn't go that far.

Sorry, I meant that other countries, especially in the middle east, make effigies of our leaders and destroy them as a political statement.

I really doubt it would go over well if the protesters started burning flags and Trump effigies.

They were the aggressor in the dream. I felt we'd awaken a sleeping giant when the riots took place. There were rumors of supremacist groups in the city. But I know protestors encountered them when they went to a certain area. They were met by men with bats and guns. That area wasn't looted.

If you keep pushing a button you'll get a response. Look at the show I mentioned yesterday. It should be postponed. The atmosphere is too charged for that topic at present. It will only stir the pot.

Frankly as awful as Jackson was I’m not sure I disagree with the protesters. The statue belongs in a history museum not on public spaces . I don’t agree with vandalism of art

I don't agree with private citizens actively destroying these statutes, but I do think they need to come down and be placed in museums instead of in public park. Museums are understood as places of teaching and learning, public parks not so much.

Andrew Jackson the only President to root out the den of vipers. He is called Stonewall for a reason. Readers I hope you realize during Jackson's presidency was the only time America was not in debt to the world bank.

Unfortunately, Democratic politicians would rather court the vote of these "protesters" and call it a "summer of love" rather than restore order to our society.

Stonewall Jackson was a Confederate General. And while the US national debt was paid off during Jackson's presidency, it also started to rise again during his term.

Can you name a person you would like to see memorialized in a statue?

Not a person, but I’d love to see my two beloved kitties.

On the spiritual level....the spirit of antichrist and one world order.

On the fleshly level....George Soros may be the top funder.
I think this stuff belongs in the conspiracy theory forum. This stuff is so far fetched.

Whenever I see protestors tearing down statues and rioting, I always feel like this little dog because I know that I can't do anything about it at all. It's quite sad.

I mean we could, but we're not gonna. They know that. Christian goals for peace and tranquility are fueled with our own convictions to not counter protest.
