Demands to take down statue of ‘white supremacist’ Abe Lincoln

Far-left students at the University of Wisconsin-Madison are calling for a statue of former President Abraham Lincoln to be removed because they say Lincoln is a “symbol of white supremacy.”

Lincoln freed the slaves and lost his life for doing so.

“Two student organizations, the Black Student Union and the Student Inclusion Coalition, pushed for the statue’s removal in early June, days after George Floyd died in Minneapolis police custody and protests erupted nationally over racial injustice,” The Wisconsin State Journal reported.

“The students’ efforts gained newfound attention after protesters tore down two other statues at the state Capitol earlier this week — one of Civil War abolitionist Hans Christian Heg and another of a female figure that represents the state’s ‘Forward’ motto.”

Hans Christian Heg was “an abolitionist who died trying to end slavery during the Civil War,” The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reported. The female figure that represented the state’s “Forward” motto was an “allegory of devotion and progress,” according to the Wisconsin Historical Society.

The statue of Lincoln, atop Bascom Hill, has been on the campus for well over 100 years.

Black Student Union president Nalah McWhorter told the local newspaper, “For him to be at the top of Bascom as a powerful placement on our campus, it’s a single-handed symbol of white supremacy.”

The fact is that this is anti-white racism. It is a refusal to acknowledge any goodness from white people.

As we have reported, statues, plaques, and other memorials are being torn down throughout the country for all manner of reason. Even abolitionists are obliterated.

This is all part of a Civil War we are currently engaged in and too few Americans sit silently while it takes place. Bill O’Reilly discusses it in this next clip and he puts the blame where it squarely belongs, on House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, two evil politicians who want power, permanent power, at all costs, by any means necessary.

All those Scumbag racist ANTIFA & BLM Terrorists who are trying to destroy this country and turn it into a fascist & communist dictatorship are going way too far. I’m fed up and I’m ready to fight back. Yes black lives matter, so do all other lives! I love my country, God Bless the USA!! In God’s eyes there is only 1 race, the Human Race. we are all created equal. All those rioters who are killing and looting and terrorizing their own neighborhoods are just seeking revenge. Yes, there is bigotry and bad cops still around, but there is plenty of bigotry in all the other communities, not just white ones. Well, guess what, all you revenge seekers, not a single one of you born in this country has been a slave, and not a single white person born in this country has ever owned a slave either. Africans, Native Americans and most every other nation in the world have practiced slavery at some point in history. If you hate this country so much, leave. Go find some “Utopia” that already has all those things you seem to think are so great. China, Russia, Cuba, they all have Communist Dictatorships, go there and really experience the life you think you want.
Just remember, there are still plenty of people like me in this Great Country who are still proud of “The Home of the Brave and the Land of the Free”, and we aren’t going to take much more of this hatred and destruction of our nation by all you liberal leftist rioters. You have no idea what you will be up against from all us old patriots who still believe in our Constitutional right bear arms to defend our country. If all the leftist scumbags like Pelosi, AOC, Ilyhan Omar, Waters, Biden aren’t voted out this November, I predict an all out war.

Regarding the communists Pelosi and Schumer….one would not know their names if their Marxist electorate did not keep both of those traitors in power.

The true enemy of the USA are it’s own citizens. Citizens who part of this once great nation, turn their backs on the USA and support the domestic, communist agenda.
