On Monday night in Baltimore, deranged leftists not only took a sledgehammer to the oldest monument to Christopher Columbus in America, they videotaped themselves doing it and posted the video accompanied by a hysterical screed targeting not only Columbus, but George Washington and America itself.

The sanctimonious, vengeful, fact-challenged lecture starts like this:

We’re walking to the oldest monument to Christopher Columbus in North America. Christopher Columbus symbolizes the initial invasion of European Capitalism into the Western hemisphere. Columbus initiated a centuries-old wave of terrorism, murder, genocide, rape, slavery, ecological degradation and capitalist exploitation of labor in Americas. That Colombian wave of destruction continues on the backs of indigenous African-American and brown people.

Conflating the terms “African-American” and “indigenous” is an interesting notion.

Continuing:

Racist monuments to slave-owners and murderers have always bothered me; Baltimore’s poverty is concentrated in African-American households, and these statues are just an extra slap in the face.

Yup, that excursion Columbus took over 500 years ago plagues society to this very day.

They were built in the 20th century in response to a movement for African-Americans’ dignity. What kind of a culture goes to such lengths to build such hate-filled monuments? What kind of a culture clings to these monuments in 2017? The culture of white supremacy preceded the United States; it’s at the foundation of U.S. culture, business, bureaucracy, and psychology. Observe how vehemently Republican and Democrat misleaders defend genocidal terrorists like Christopher Columbus and George Washington.

Washington a terrorist? Forget the fact that he was likely the greatest American to ever walk the land, a man whose character is unrivalled, just where is that notion from?

White supremacy and the systems that sustain it must be replaced or people will continue to suffer and the planet will die. Part of our evolution as humans requires the tearing down monuments to destructive forces and tearing down systems that maintain them. Part of our evolution is to develop new and ancient systems of democratic economics that center the needs of poor indigenous African-American and brown people.

Okay, get a grip. Those living in so-called poverty today in America generally have living standards that would be the envy of hundreds of millions of people throughout history, you fool.

As the leftist takes a sledgehammer to the statue, another leftist holds up a sign reading, "Racism tear it down," while another sign is posted on the statue, reading, “The future is racial and economic justice."

No one with any sense will endorse this kind of senseless act.

But, at least when I was in school, they just stuck to the basics of his 5 voyages in discovering new lands. Not the brutul murders he initiated on the natives.

You should at least be consistent.
