INSANE AND IMMORAL: CITY OF BOSTON REMOVES LINCOLN STATUE.

Fucking BASTARDS.







Repugnant doesn't even begin to describe it.

"Workers dismantled a statue of Abraham Lincoln in Boston Tuesday, after the city agreed with protesters who say the memorial is demeaning and lacks proper context. The statue depicts Lincoln holding his hand over a kneeling Black man — a figure modeled on Archer Alexander, the last man captured under the Fugitive Slave Act.

"We're pleased to have taken it down this morning," a spokesperson for Boston Mayor Marty Walsh said in a statement to NPR, noting that the decision followed two public hearings and a petition from artist Tory Bullock in which 12,000 people supported moving the statue."


I looked up Tory Bullock. He's an asshole. No surprise a weakling like Marty Walsh went along.


John Wilkes Booth, a firebreathing anti-abolitionist, blew President Lincoln's brains out because he couldn't bear the end of slavery. He... killed the man who unleashed a war across the continental USA to free slaves, a war which cost the lives of 600,000 Americans... more than any 'American' war before or since.


Today, the statue of Lincoln is being removed. These are insane times.


MFBB.
