As the monuments come down, the world weighs in:

"This new blow against cultural heritage shows that cultural cleansing led by violent extremists is seeking to destroy both human lives and historical monuments in order to deprive the... people of its past and its future," Unesco's director general, Irina Bokova, said.

Orwell already spoke to it:

“Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture has been repainted, every statue and street building has been renamed, every date has been altered. And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is always right.”

For Joe:

Edward R. Murrow in a Hawaiian shirt. Took some work to find him dressed like you, I must say.

FDR memorials are the ones that should all be knocked down, imho :P at least that's a good quote to cover up his horrible deeds of New World Order.

they have to. Fairfax County Courthouse is mammoth in size to handle all the speeding tickets taxes they hand out. It's actually quite mad how much money is in that courthouse; yet centered in a small little town.

So are the major courthouses of NYC, Chicago and SD. I've been summonsed to all of them. And all of these summonses made it very clear that parking was NOT provided.

Parking is provided to jurors here in Tampa / Hillsborough County but we aren't rolling in crippling perpetual debt like the liberal meccas.
