B,

There was a program on cspan today where people called in and gave their views on the statues. A lot of them said put them in a museum. Some people wanted Stone Mountain to come down. If they're going to start moving stuff, why not make Stone Mountain the museum and move stuff there? Seems to me its the locals that need to decide what to do in their towns.

Someone on that program said the SPLC made a list of all the confederate monuments last year. They've been planning . . . They need to stop using that group as an authoritative source. They're bad news.

Hey, zzfart ... why don't you invite your Antifa & BLM butt-buddies to attend your Bi Brother cuddle parties? I'm sure you could provide them with the happy ending they are desperately searching for.

The monument is located directly across the street from Herring Run Park, northeast of Lake Montebello. It was built by Frenchman Chevalier d'Anemours, or d'Anmour, at Belmont, his 50-acre estate near Harford Road and North Avenue.

According to Baltimore Brew, an online video shows an individual smashing the base, which contained the inscription: Sacred to the Memory of Chris. Columbus Oct. XII MDCC VIIIC. The vandals destroyed nearly all the text on the base of the 44-foot-tall obelisk.

The vandal left a sign by the destruction, saying "Racism: Tear it down," and another sign saying "The future is racial and economic justice." ...
