Why don't you left wingers decide what you believe. You want to tear down Confederate statues because you claim those they're honoring broke the law then you support one going up in honor of someone that broke the law.

Only a true racist wouldn't see the difference between Rosa Parks and R E Lee and Confederate sympathizers

Wonderful!

Did you ever hear the tale of the Rosa Parks Highway near the St. Louis area? It started out as a KKK Adopt-A-Highway thing, but ppl kept stealing the official Adopt-A-Highway sponsored by the ___" sign that MDOT put up on that stretch. The KKK finally gave up the losing battle. The highway's name was changed to honor Ms. Parks.

"What the New-Leader article doesn't mention is that the same tactic being attempted in Springfield was first employed in St. Louis back in 2000. That's when a federal appeals court upheld a case in which the Ku Klux Klan sued the Missouri Department of Transportation for the right to adopt a stretch of Interstate 55 between St. Louis County and Jefferson County.

"But the KKK's victory was short lived. Soon the Missouri legislature struck upon the idea of renaming that stretch of I-55 after civil rights pioneer Rosa Parks. A sign recognizing the interstate as the "Rosa Parks Highway" was quickly erected and placed next to the sign announcing that the roadway had been adopted for cleaning by the KKK.

"As you can imagine, the Klan didn't appreciate that and soon dropped adoption of the road."

I noticed at least a couple of them have showed up to start the bashing of a famous Civil Rights figure.

ETA: Aw, one of them realized what she'd done and deleted her post.

Rosa Parks broke the law. The southern states that seceded didn't.

White Northern liberals keep their Blacks confined to the ghettos in the Blue States.

Chicago needs the statue more.

Can't let up on the Civil War BS can you? Most southerners are proud of what our fellow southerners like MLK have accomplished.

The irony of this post is palpable. Racism exists everywhere, but there are far more racist Democrats in the north than there are racist Republicans in the South. Once again your own racism shines through bright and clear. You couldn't give two shits about any historical civil rights figure, beyond exploiting them for your own political bullshit. If you did, you wouldn't denigrate blacks who don't toe the liberal line, calling them Uncle Tom's, and what not. Because of course, they are way too uppity for you and your ilk. Fucking Hypocrites. Talk about un-American, you might want to glance in a mirror once in a while you fucking mental midget.

Obama started all of this racism talk,
after 50 years of struggle to improve things, and we came a long way.
Obama set us back 50 years.

a real shame too because in reality he was only half black and could have done so much to lead by example
