No it is not, even a leading black member of BLM, just 3 or 4 days ago, criticized the "ruling party" behind BLM - George Soros. This has evolved into an open communist uprising!Quote:

Great "sources" as usual. All right leaning, mostly conspiracy theorist outlets for people like you that are looking for the "truth"... that fits their beliefs/agenda. I noticed one likes to use "woke" and "cancel culture" a whole lot. Makes sense based on your posts on ED.Quote:

That dude used the Bible to justify slavery. He's just a troll and not worth respond to. Turn him to ignore and feel better off with out his racist spiel contaminating your screen.Quote:

You mean the Jesus statue in the Trump email?Quote:

His entire business model is to generate clicks from conservatives outraged by the stupid trollish stuff he puts out there. He has no power beyond triggering anger in response to his nonsense.Quote:

So what. great men don't have flaws? Of course they do. Does that make their accomplishments not count ? Of course not.
Also, it's pretty easy to see these flaws from the future, like you are doing. I hope someone takes a look at your extremely virtuous life 100 years from now.
This. He's pretty much the left's "Candace Owens".Quote:

You nailed it Hack. Every human being, every culture, every country etc has not or will never be perfect. Way to much hate, anger and negativity. It's so very sad what's happening in this country right now. I worry about the future my children and grand children face.Quote:

Now anything can be put out there on youTube or the internet however, Wikipedia has an entry for them.

The description in Wikipedia is pretty enlightening. Someone spent a TON of $$ to erect those in GA in 1980. My question: Why and what would be the return on the investment?

But during that time that was the norm, was it right? Heck no. I like to think we have advanced as a humans and are more civilized. We have gotten better and we need to strive to do better but to look at history and try to condem a race based off 100 or more years ago is crazy. People say we need to look forward and move forward, well, that's what we all want so why don't some want to do it? Because there's money in keeping people at each other. It's total ridiculous and needs to stop.
