I can't possibly imagine why anyone would be offended by the statue.

Anyone finding this statue offensive is lesser educated. It's as simple as that. If you educated yourselves you would know what it is depicting.

Left out a key part of my quote for a reason, intellectually bankrupt one?
Of course you did but let's review what I actually wrote, shall we?...

"I have no empathy for the neurotic leftist assholes who haven't anything better to do than to convince city council leftist assholes to act on their neuroses."

Do we live in a free country or not? We live in a society where can protest whatever we want, and petition our government to remove statues if we like. The city of Boston is listening to it's citizens, and that's how our government and Constitution was designed. You don't have to understand or agree with every movement in America, but you should at least respect the peaceful American process occurring.

You never answered my question, and I am not at all surprised.

You and your stupid strawman, dishonest rebuttals.

Resorting to all that hyperbole to demean somebody's opinion?? You mean your argument cannot stand on its own merit?? That is just like the communist government, not to mention it despises "outside" opinions. Says so all the time. Maybe a better name would be tres borrachos muy roja!! Thanks!!

Your question could be easily answered if you tried to understand the movement and why black Americans are offended by these statues. All that requires is for you to be willing to listen instead of demonstrating you have no empathy for them and blasting them as neurotic leftist assholes.

As if you ever understood what people actually write, and what you think or wish they said.

Your rebuttals are rendered moot until you take the time to understand the written word.

When you write whiny insults towards me, no, I actually don’t care about what you actually write nor do I care to understand your attitude problem

This statue worshipping by cons puts a massive highlight on why they are so easily duped. Get them worshipping symbologies like statues, flags and bibles that they don't even read and they'll follow that cult to right hell with angry smiles on ****ting on actual people the whole way down.

No I speak for all educated people who also have higher intelligence. If anyone finds themselves pulling down abolitionist statues and citing racism as your reason....congrats....your parents are both fascinating genetic failures.

Dude. They dont want the statue. An elected official is taking it down. It's how our government works.

You would think. It was the Boston ART Commission, whatever the heck that is: Boston To Remove Statue Depicting Abraham Lincoln With Freed Black Man At His Feet : Live Updates: Protests For Racial Justice : NPR. So the people of Boston - despite a couple of hours of hearings - weren't actually represented by elected officials. I want all statues removed that I think are "creepy." Let's see, where do I begin?? Thanks!!

You guys and your fake outrage are hilarious. Watching you pretend to care about a statue you never knew existed is even funnier.
