Sounds like they ran out of 'bad' statues to tear down and went for the 'good' ones. Kinda like rioters burning down black owned businesses. Mindless destruction for the sake of destruction.

I thought I did...


*How about you read it and let me know?

OK:

Politico reporter Marc Caputo tweeted out a video of the incident, writing: “Lost Cause meet Crazy Cause: using Juneteenth to tear down of [sic] the San Fran. statue of Ulysses S. Grant —who won the Civil War that led to emancipation, long before had freed the 1 slave he had been given & who was later eulogized by Frederick Douglass.”

Doesn't say much for the state of education in the US.

The educational system is the nation's babysitter. :tantrum:

Thought that was TV? (Or probably ipads these days).

Kids spend more time with teachers than tv, and probably take them more seriously as well.

My only hope is they insist on segregating amongst themselves and leave the rest of us in peace.

Good point. The current dustup doesn't encourage integration, imo.

Yes, In poor neighborhoods in CA, The education sucks. And needs to be fixed. But I don't see this being funny.
