You don’t have to be a total idiot to be a BLM or Antifa member, but it certainly doesn’t hurt.
These thugs have announced that they will be tearing down the Lincoln Emancipation statue on Thursday at 7 PM.
The statue was paid for by freed slaves to celebrate Lincoln’s signing of the Emancipation Proclamation.
These thugs don’t care. They just want to tear down statues so they have something to post on Twitter and Facebook.
If we were to wait until they knew what they were doing we’d be very very old.

?TEAR DOWN PRESIDENT LINCOLN STATUE IN WASHINGTON DC ?
Hundreds of (mostly white) protesters have shown up.
Why? Because this statue honoring the signing of the emancipation proclamation is “racist.”
Where did the statue come from? It was paid for and erected by freed slaves. pic.twitter.com/SL1OA8IaMY— Benny (@bennyjohnson) June 23, 2020
I’m not sure any of these thugs will show up to try to take down the statue but I have a funny feeling Trump is prepared to stop them.
“Protesters” and potential vandals gathered by the statue in Capitol Hill’s Lincoln Park on Tuesday evening to discuss the “problematic” art. The statue depicts President Lincoln with a freed slave and is nearly 150 years old. It was unveiled 11 years after the president’s assassination.
On Tuesday, radical D.C. Delegate Eleanor Holmes Norton announced that she intends to introduce legislation to remove the statue.
“This statue has been controversial from the start,” she said. “It is time it was placed in a museum.”
