That's the wrong question. You should ask:
"Why is Trump and Republicans still not #OFFENDED by Confederate Statues?"

Answer:

Because simply removing statues without removing the hate from within isn't really changing anything.
What good is removing Teddy Roosevelt when we all know that isn't going to do SQUAT to remove the hate that permanently resides in some people.

In short, its stupid.

George Orwell was never more relevant than he is today.

Deleting Aunt Jemima is like saying that "OWN" (Oprah Winfrey Network) is racially objectionable.

The African American woman - Nancy Green, something like that - behind the syrup was one of America's first African American woman entrepreneurs.

Throwing out the baby with the bathwater.

if they don't want COLOR they could always Legislate - ALL ADS MUST BE GRAY SCALE.

This is just to energize the negro base of the demonrats and get them to vote. They did the same thing with little angel travon.

Tearing down some statues that celebrate american nationalism, that's just gravy to them who are pulling the strings.

What about the optics of a black woman VP. Not that a black woman wouldn't be deserving, but the country ain't ready for that yet. She would simply represent what they are oppressed about. Just another token black woman propping up "whitey". Joe Biden's record speaks for itself on that subject.

cannibalism is part of our history so why shouldn't we have statues of cannibals eating people in school

orgies are also a part of our history ....

Lest not forget the ever so heady cannibal orgies ....

And how about a homage to human shit over the centuries


wait I forgot rape and to incorporate everything above into a nice wholesome soup

Will they tear down the boll weevul monument in Enterprise, AL also? Yes, she is holding up a boll weevul on that little trophy thing. In the middle of cotton country, er I mean peanut country.

With my own eyes I have seen that Pulaski, TN has no Burning, Looting, Murdering going on, and the civil war statues are safe and sound in the old cemetery. They aren't tearing this one down either:

How dare you assume that all men have penises???!!! Or that only men have penises??? And the gendered language and assumption of pronouns is inexcusable. I'm even more offended now. What is wrong with you you goddamn transphobe? There's no place in our society for the type of bigotry you've displayed. You belong in a museum.
is this your best argument? an ironic scarecrow statement meant to paint absurdity on a niche opinion?

Heck

why not let Dr. Ben Carson sell Uncle Ben's rice ?

and get a % age.


the problem isn't the use of ancient icons

the problem is not giving the African American folks a % age.


could always Raise Oprah's tax rate
- and use the cash to pay for BLM college scholarships ... and professorships.

I lived up in Anchorage for about a year, and never could get me no Eskimo pie. Not for lack of trying. And BTW, they prefer to be referred to as natives, and believe they won, as opposed to the natives in the lower 48.
