    Funny thing is, you're praising one of the most diverse schools in the country.

    Common sense is not a gift, it's a punishment because you have to deal with everyone who doesn't have it.

    Funny the polls don't show that!

    "In a new HuffPost/YouGov poll, a third of Americans favor removing statues and memorials of Confederate leaders, with 49 percent opposed. Just 29 percent of Americans favor changing the names of streets, schools and buildings commemorating Confederate leaders, while half are opposed.Opinions on the Confederate memorials are divided along racial lines, but to an even greater degree along political ones. Black Americans are 18 percentage points likelier than white Americans to favor removing statues of Confederate leaders ― but the gap between Democrats and Republicans on the question is 46 points. And the difference between Hillary Clinton voters and those who supported President Donald Trump in last year’s election is a full 58 points.
    Within the Democratic Party, white and black people are about equally likely to favor removing the statues: 64 percent and 63 percent, respectively, say they’d like to see them taken down. There are differences, however, by ideology among the party’s members ― 77 percent of self-described liberal Democrats, but just 40 percent of self-described moderates or conservatives ― want to see the statues removed.
    Most other surveys released in the past few weeks find at best modest support for removing Confederate memorials, although two distinctively-worded questions stand out in these results."

    Tear down bigoted Omar then..........a living monument to the present.
    Abortion rights dogma can obscure human reason & harden the human heart so much that the same person who feels
    empathy for animal suffering can lack compassion for unborn children who experience lethal violence and excruciating
    pain in abortion.

    Unborn animals are protected in their nesting places, humans are not. To abort something is to end something
    which has begun. To abort life is to end it.

    Since we're tearing down bigots, might as well tear down Fox News, Breitbart, Evangelical Christianity, the NRA, the GOP, Trump, and Conservatism in general.

    I'm a conservative Southern Republican and I'm not complaining. I'm just commenting that Democrats are trying to erase their history.

    Why shouldn't there be a violent takedown of those institutions?

    I say dig up all the graves of Confederate traitors at Arlington -and elsewhere- and dump whatever remains into the Potomac.

    Traitors don't get to rest in peace.

    Seems to be working as one racist monument after another comes tumbling down.

    You're replying to an OP about that very thing, by the way.

    So you're here saying that violent takedowns of Conservative monuments aren't getting state government attention, yet every week we read about another state or local government erasing the glory of Conservative Confederates.

    So what the hell, bruh?

    Not at all. 300 years of slavery, 100 years of Jim Crow, and 50 years of mass incarceration seem to indicate differently.

    Do you think racism was solved in this country? If so, when why are black men and women still being killed by police? Why are black borrowers subject to higher interest rates than white borrowers?

    To deny institutional racism is to deny America itself.


    There are a lot of blacks who attend colleges, smart ones too. You would think smart enough to know they are fortunate, not cry about the past.
    You're the ones crying about the past when the monuments to your glorified traitors get torn down.

    So if a monument to a Conservative traitor is torn down, will you suddenly forget what side lost the Civil War?

    If so, you need to see a doctor because you probably have brain damage or a tumor.
