I know it says they're considering removing the statues but they'll do it.

Remember when as the statues of confederates were taken down in many states and conservatives warned that Jefferson and Washington would be next, and the progressives said they had no plans to do it?

They lied. It was always part of the communist plan.

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.

George Orwell, 1984


Just crazy.

NYC Blacks are angry with the illegals taking money they see as theirs. You can watch videos of them screaming at AOC and Adam's chanting "get them out!"

This is a blatantly pandering move to appease the angry black community who feel their power, their communities and place at the government money trough is being threatened by the influx of illegals and to be fair, they aren't wrong. But they DID vote for it.

A cynical ploy to play the black community. They are no more able to pay reparations than San Fran. And you know they will be recommending several million for each of them.

If they have time to tear down statues and plan reparations, they have too much time and money on their hands.

They need more buses! Abbott, get to work.

I read the thread title and immediately thought 'this is a joke, right?' Nope, The Bee wasn't the source.

This is beyond stupid

At some point, these state level reparations will be federalized, then they'll just print the money to pay it. Might be 10 or 20 years but I expect it.

This is what CA and NY are counting on...getting bailed out with federal dollars for their stupid policy boondoggles.

Yeah. Who is more important? Hispanics or Blacks?
Lol, at New Yorkers who are led by white liberals whose money is protected , but love to spend theirs, and then leave the place in shambles.

As I recall they previously tried to remove/rename Columbus Circle and failed after significant pushback.

If Washington is removed no statue/monument/memorial is safe.

City councils everywhere frequently "consider" things that have no likelihood of passage/implementation. Clickbait post title.

They should look around he see that Hispanics are a
more profitable long term dependent group for the Dems. Black America is no longer at the apex for vote buying bang for your buck.

That turd of a city keeps circling the bowl. It's time for it to go down the drain.

This. It's not like I was ever going to go to NYC anyway and we could find some great homes down here for these statues. Win/win.
