Now this is just flat-out counterproductive and DUMB

[RVN VET71]

23. Statutes not statues. Yes!

But you have to listen, learn, and read to know what statutes need changing. Mobs don't care to read. The symbol of taking down a statue is eye-catching. Mobs like to cheer themselves (itself?) on.

So they move on Heg, not because he wasn't a hero of abolition but because the Mob didn't know, didn't care.

Mobs moved on a statue of Ulysses Grant, for chrissakes. The man who is most singularly responsible for beating the CSA and allowing the abolition of slavery to take place. Grant! And in London, on Churchill. Churchill, without whom it is not implausible to guess that citizens of Jolly Old would, today, be speaking German. That Churchill.

I know where my vote will go in November, so it makes no difference how savagely ignorant these mobs of foolish people act. I have nothing but support for the tearing down of CSA memorial statues, but fear for the leftward movement of American politics if the attacks on monuments to freedom persist.

Statutes not statues needs to be a rallying cry, but who in the crowd would listen?
