That one's definitely frustrating, I don't see what would even motivate someone to deface the Lincoln Memorial like that (although, fortunately it was just the columns and not the sculpture itself)

Wow, fuck that guy! Honest Abe doesn't deserve that :/
I'm left leaning and I don't agree with guys like these. I know that most of this nation's right leaning people are good folks, and I would never associate them with people like the Charlottesville neo Nazis. I'd prefer no one associate me with the idiots who defaced the Lincoln memorial. Let's all recognize the good in each other

Not to burst anyones bubble, but I really hate that Politics has made it's way into Temp. This is a Video Game Community for gods sake. But, do as you please.
But, my opinions are simple. I support Trump; but if you don't like that opinion, then please respect it, and I will respect yours. If you want to be a bitch, and outright lie, and go argue because my opinion(s) don't match up to your Quota; then please take some time to rethink your goals in life; and keep your opinions to yourself~ That is all.
On the other hand though, if you want to have a civial and honest arguement about Trump or any other side, please, I am more than willing. But, please don't be a crying bitch baby about it.

Seems there is a statue war now
Baltimore removed confederate statues overnight
sjw/blm/antifa decided to make a topless black pregnant woman (which seems to made of paper mache and concrete?)
they put the statue up where a general robert e lee statue stood
it was then toppled over hours later (weather this was do to the shoddy construction or was intentional or even a "false flag" is unknown)
the bottom of the statue was spray painted with the words "white power" and "ni**er"
edit: found another picture when they were putting up the statue, the same hate words above are present in the picture, so the whole thing was staged to drum up more hatred
pics in spoiler V
and in other vandalized statue news, a joan of arc statue in new oreleans was vandalized today with the words "tear it down"

So I guess we should remove George Washington and Thomas Jefferson's monuments now too since they owned slaves and rename Washington d.c.? Leave the monuments up as a reminder of the good and bad in the past, at the very least preserve them. Removing them still isn't going to change what they did, plus they serve a reminder of what is morally right and wrong.

They probably held back and cut it out when they noticed this situation and thought "eh, he's burning the country from the inside anyways."
I was thinking in the same line. Earlier US presidents didn't press with North Korea because it wasn't worth wasting rockets on.
Nowadays, Kim Jong-un might just as well be wondering if bombing the us isn't a waste of HIS rockets.
More serious: cut it out with the conflict, guys. This is the consequence of the recent police hate incidents against black guys, and if you keep dodging a PROPER solution, you'll sow the seeds of future incidents. Assuming you don't want a second civil war, you better start solving shit.
Oh, and i would suggest not leaving it up to the president. Your country's to important for that.
I'm always happy to know that the orange cunt and all of his supporters are so triggered! Love it!
It's actually funny how you think the left is evil.
I'm sorry that you get triggered by the mighty left taking down your participation trophies lmao.

While the left didn't ram a car into a crowd, they're not exactly blameless. From the moment the protesters on the right arrived, the counter protesters were there spreading hate towards the right, escalating tensions as high as they could.
Except the filthy alt right started the violent KKK and Nazi rallies, so they get whatever coming to them. I'm a bottom leftist, but I'll beat the shit out of anyone who I see performing a Nazi salute or using racial slurs.
I think people like to put everything in the same bag, put a tag on it, and forget that they were not the same to begin with.
I mean, sure there exist both "left" and "right" that is not full of extremist assholes.
But there also existed extreme right that were just a bunch of irrational assassins (think Nazi Germany), and extreme left that again were a bunch of assassins too (think Stalin).
I think right now in the USA you have the full spectrum, and if the right or the left don't want to be mixed up with the others, they should call them out.
To be honest, I think your President, being himself clearly from the right, made a terrible political mistake on not calling out the extreme right on time, failing on making it clear that the right is not the same... Or perhaps he didn't, and he actually supports the extreme right for real.
Of course the left should also call out the idiots from the extreme-left, or else it loses credibility. IMHO.
PS: But considering their positions, goals, support and chantings, I would be more afraid of what the extreme-right could lead into right now. Of course, IMHO.

Meh, the US kinda sucks. I guess this garbage country would rather brag about a strong military than have a peaceful message for the rest of the world.
Take the national anthem into consideration. The USA anthem is about war and violence, and the Canadian anthem is about living in piece and learning acceptance.

Are you sad because Killary lost?
This is exactly the problem, escalating the situation until things get out of control.
Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. was adamant about protests remaining peaceful, no matter how much hate counter protesters spread, This is precisely why his movement succeeded.
I'm not a Hillary supporter you righty simpleton.
Are YOU mad you lost the civil war and your participation trophies are being taken down? Lololol
I'm all for peace. I hate violence. Guess that makes me a snowflake that I don't like to see people get hurt or DIE, but whatever.
If everyone remembers correctly, some white dude punched MLK Jr. in the face while he was approaching his podium. All Dr said to him was "you shall be forgiven" or something of the sorts. I'd beat the fuck outta him. I'll give him a nice Richard Spencer across the face, kek!
