Can you imagine living in a country where people destroy historical monuments because they don't like them? Like that guy who defaced the Sphinx of Egypt because it was half man and half animal (he decided it was against his religion)? Or those people who tore down giant Buddha statues (because Buddha is offensive right)? Or maybe even those looters who raided the Baghdad museum of it's priceless historical artifacts (because... they could)? You know, a country where some deluded group of people just wants to destroy stuff? It would be crazy right?

Do YOU not comprehend the difference between protesting against a statue erected in public space owned by everyone and paid for by tax dollars and a statue erected on private property that someone else paid for and maintains?
Did you ALSO not read the attached link you posted where it very specifically states that the Lenin statue has been vandalized and the subject of vigorous debate? If you did read it, where did you get this silly notion that everyone is just fine with the Lenin statue?
Trying to suggest people who are against a statue that celebrates the confederacy equates to people who have no problem with a statue of Lenin is a blatant false equivalency and more than a little childish.
Well, it does require some thought, that is for sure
I would put them in jail, that's for sure. It's a shame simple logic isn't being used.

Anyways what's a statue of Lenin doing in Seattle? You would think it would be more likely in Alaska or something.
Or... I hit a nerve
Actually, I was thinking something along those lines
what in the world is it doing in Seattle!

Want to know nice simple Democratic solution to the whole affair of monuments and statues?
Let people vote on it.
But of course the lefties doesn't know what it is to live in a Democratic Republic.

Maybe Russia used to own Seattle at one time. Eh?Actually, I was thinking something along those lines
Hmmmmm......
As intelligent as we are in the US... this is quite a revelation, it never crossed my mind.
Voting? Nawwww! that's too simple!
IT'S RUSSIA COLLUSION! RUN FOR THE HILLS!

I'm all for tearing down statues of Lenin along with all the others.
A true revolutionary only needs one kind of monument, anyway:

Nah... it's just a blatant false equivalency and more than a little childish and demonstrates what a troll you are because you think that your false equivalency 'hit a nerve'. .
And what, precisely, do you thing I deserve?
LOl still sounds like a nerve to me.
