    I don’t really give a shit about the memorials themselves… But it’s the flaunting of the law and regulations (without consequence) that gets me.

    Now wait a minute…I’ve been hearing all year that the need for military and national guard in the country is to protect federal buildings.

      Yeah, the cousin-fuckers were telling me ever since the statues of Confederates started coming under threat of removal [1] that we’d have no other way to learn about history! It’s not that their special privileges of being a racist piece of shit were being threatened, oh no! They were worried about heritage! And history! They are just history buffs!

      And now they are probably lining up behind Taco if he did decide to remove the Jefferson Memorial? How would we even know about Jefferson without a statue?

      [1] Honestly, I do wonder how many of the right was motivated to come out in droves for the likes of Taco based on statues and bathroom bills…

    Maybe they can replace it with one to that teenaged slave girl he was fucking.

    Wait, am I talking about Jefferson or Trump?

      They will use this as “payback” for general Lee’s statue.

      But we can do a Sherman again and just burn the south MAGAs to submission but this time no half assing it.

      Edit: add Utah as well. Burn it down.
