Massive crane took down the statue of “Robert E. Lee On His Horse”

“Just watched as a massive crane took down the magnificent and very famous statue of “Robert E. Lee On His Horse” in Richmond, Virginia. It has long been recognized as a beautiful piece of bronze sculpture. To add insult to injury, those who support this “taking” now plan to cut it into three pieces, and throw this work of art into storage prior to its complete desecration.

Robert E. Lee is considered by many Generals to be the greatest strategist of them all. President Lincoln wanted him to command the North, in which case the war would have been over in one day. Robert E. Lee instead chose the other side because of his great love of Virginia, and except for Gettysburg, would have won the war. He should be remembered as perhaps the greatest unifying force after the war was over, ardent in his resolve to bring the North and South together through many means of reconciliation and imploring his soldiers to do their duty in becoming good citizens of this Country.

Our culture is being destroyed and our history and heritage, both good and bad, are being extinguished by the Radical Left, and we can’t let that happen! If only we had Robert E. Lee to command our troops in Afghanistan, that disaster would have ended in a complete and total victory many years ago. What an embarrassment we are suffering because we don’t have the genius of a Robert E. Lee!”

President Trump when you are back in office, can you do everything possible to Put Back all the Historical Monuments and Statues they have removed all over the Country? And I hope someone on your staff is keeping track as they attempt to wipe out our History.

DianeLion

I Am Totally Tired Of This Show!!! What Is Coming Next? Will They Erase Everything And Everyone That Made This Country Great??? What Was The Purpose Behind This? Can Anyone Answer? I Dont Even Care To Watch The News Anymore.

My Man Trump

WHERE ARE YOU PRESIDENT TRUMP! Bring your military and get rid of these posers and haters. This is good vs. evil and we will win. But we have to start now!

Ralph Fleming

Now all of a sudden my comments are all approved at once. Seems someone doesn’t like the threat of real legal action for the same thing their boss is suing someone else for.

LOL you should have your comments denied either way. You don’t tell anything usefull, you are not a Trump Supporter, Im not even sure why you are here … I bet you have the notifications activated just to come here and add nothing.
At least on this comment you clearly state that you agree with Trump’s action on Social Platforms (P.s This is not a Social Media Platform) … But as it seems that the Ralphie Boy is not so smart, he did not understood that.

Ralph Fleming

Then please enlighten me Stuart as to what you consider this site. And I am not a Trump supporter as I can think for myself and do not blindly follow one person. I offer a chance for debate and looking at things from a different perspective but no one on this site can do that, they always resort to name calling and telling those with a different opinion than theirs to get off the site and stop commenting. Man it seems like I’ve heard that somewhere before…oh that’s right that’s what all of you Trump supporters say everyone does to you.

Dean

They seem to filter out the comments containing truth.

Ralph Fleming

You’ll be hearing from my attorney!

Stuart

Who Obummer or Hillary?

Ralph Fleming

Both

Ralph Fleming

If you (whomever is not allowing my comments to post on this site) keeps one more of my comments from being posted on this site I will be suing you for violating my 1st Amendment Rights.

Daniel L. Friedel

If we continue to try and erase the mistakes of the past and so the lessons they teach us, then they will eventually go forgotten and we may be doomed to relive and repeat them. It is a mistake to do this.

Daniel L. Friedel

Also I would like to ask why the left (socialists) always seem to want to resort to name calling and insults when trying to get their point across? We can discuss without the name calling and insults. We can also agree to disagree-

Ralph Fleming

Seems hypocritical to complain about name calling while name calling yourself.

kld7

Calling a socialist a socialist is not name calling.

Ralph Fleming

The left does not mean socialist you may believe that but that doesn’t make it true.

Stuart

Stick It Ralph YOU Commie-Lib!

Ralph Fleming

But it’s only the left name calling Stuart are you the left?

Ralph Fleming

It seems pretty telling of Trump’s supporters and Trump himself when his post about Robert E. Lee is this long and his supporters have commented this many times. Compared to his short post and his copied and pasted statement by someone else with so few comments from supporters. There is more outrage shown by Trump and his supporters for a statue of a General for an enemy of the United States of America then there was for a person fighting for the United States of America.

And to whomever has to read my comments before approving them for this site, you suck!

Ralphy is a little crazy, isn’t he ? 😀

Ralph Fleming

Crazy for pointing out the truth? Sure am!

thilan

Good luck ! I think you are always far from the truth.

Ralph Fleming

Look at the amount of replies to this post and the number of replies to the post concerning Rylee. Then please explain to me how I am far from the truth.

thilan

Because you love the truth, but the truth doesn’t love you !!

Stuart

Insane Commie-Lib!

Crazy hooligan !

You might want to read some of this:

“I have always observed that wherever you find the negro, everything is going down around him, and wherever you find the white man, you see everything around him improving.”
“I believe it to be the duty of everyone to unite in the restoration of the country and the reestablishment of peace and harmony.” ( YOU do the opposite )
I cannot trust a man to control others who cannot control himself.” ( He is speaking of YOU )

You are a racist AH!

thilan

Black and colored people (I am) don’t think so ! President Trump is our friend.

kld7

No one is trying to claim that Robert E. Lee was a great civil rights leader. He was a product of his place and time. But everything Pres. Trump said about him is true. Let him who is without sin cast the first stone.

Jackie Duchan

I’m so sick of the left trying to destroy history and make up their own.
When is that forensic audit coming out? We all know the election was stolen. You Sir are the true president of the United States.

LeeVin100

Make America AMERICA AGAIN

Judy Ann Vraalstad

That is just HORRIBLE. NO, this can’t happen to our country, but it is. YOU Mr President MUST come back otherwise we won’t have a country anymore. I know you have a plan, but I hope and pray that your plan is in place before it’s too late.

Nick Cassar Torregiani

That work of art belongs to the people not the mindless uneducated idiots who ordered it to be interfered with.
No one has the right to touch the peoples property irrespective of what it portrays. That work of art needs to be taken back from where ever it is being held before these philistines damage it and who ever gave the order to touch it be taken to court and put in jail.
All it needs is to have the balls to do it.
These left power drunk fools have the audacity to to mess with you the peoples property and unless they are stopped ASAP it will go on and they will get bolder. Stop it now standing around saying what a shame the statue is taken down does not cut it.

Angela Partin

So sad. I hate seeing our country destroyed!

GLENN

Hyperbole much??????

My Man Trump

hypersuck this.

Mary Geiger

Shades of ISIS destroying statues, monuments, antiques so the people whom they attacked would lose their history and their identity.

Ora Gasm

Ever been to Germany Scary Mary? Not a statue, painting or ANY memory of good ‘ol Adolf or swastikas anywhere! Know why? It’s illegal! Did everyone forget who he was? No. They want that lesson learned but you aren’t quite that smart!

John

So now the left is comparing Robert E Lee to Hitler? Whos next the Easter Bunny? And by the way when you start off your rebuttal with name calling it means you have lost the debate.

Ora Gasm

No Johnny, I was comparing how a civil society acts when they excise a cancer from their body politic. Germany does not celebrate the reign of Hitler who destroyed their country & almost the world but shuns him. There are no Hitler monuments, statues or memorabilia. The swastika is illegal. Children there are taught daily of his evils in hope of not repeating the mistake. A lot can be learned here but the uneducated, driven by fear & hatred celebrate the TRAITORS that caused a civil war simply so they could OWN a black person. That ideology must be nuked from our culture along with those who ascribe to it, to form a more perfect union. Get mommy to explain the big words Johnny!

thilan

In the history, people made a lot of war. Hitler has made a genocide, but not Robert E. Lee. By the way, it is Fauci who mades a genocide now

thilan

You mom didn’t educated you very much, I see !

Stuart

Biden = NAZI

Fred Armstrong

Trump…..you had a chance to take the establishment down, you did not. The elite are now making moves to destroy our culture. The elite are using the left to do what they want without concern for what anyone thinks. Like others before you, you failed to take a hard stance while now they are. More misguided hope lost to add to our demise. Will the world ever get the chance again to have a person in a position to make true change for freedom and humanity. You let this happen….if, a big if you get another chance are you going to do what needs to be done?

thilan

No one can do what President Trump did. You want too much ! We have to help him and don’t let him work alone.

GLENN

and what woud that be genius???

DONNA L. GRIFFIN

THE LEFT SHOULD BE MADE TO PAY THEY ARE THE ONLY IDIOTS WANTING THIS STUFF DONE MOST ORDINARY AMERICANS LOVE OUR HISTORY WHY DO A FEW GET TO DESTROY SO MUCH OF IT?

MARY LOU CUTTER

WHAT A SHAME!!!!!!!!

Michelle

They want to remove everything, including people. They are sick and evil…they cannot ever get rid of God or his word! Jesus is King of Kings and they hate it…they have the characteristics of the one they follow, who comes to kill, steal, and destroy.

Parrish Tim

Amen

GLENN

and hold the sacred word upside down

karen larason

Those in power seem to be dismantling our country all together are trying their damest

DONNA L. GRIFFIN

SO NOT RIGHT MORE OF US THAN OF THEM.

LightoftheWorld

Why is this tiny communist minority allowed to dictate to the American majority? Hands off our history, art, and national treasures! We have thousands of laws on the books, but is there nothing we can do about this?
Do we the people really have any power?

DONNA L. GRIFFIN

THAT IS WHAT I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW

Four XXXX

That is so sad, especially as dictatorships and new regimes tear down the old to make way for the “new”.
These statues are iconic and a constant reminder of America’s history. The freedom and opportunities available today is because of the actions and sacrifices of others in the past.
How long can a society survive when the focus is on an individual’s selfish, self-serving wants rather than another person’s (or country’s) needs?

DONNA L. GRIFFIN

THEY THINK THEY OWN US AND DESTROYING EVERYTHING WE BELIEVE IN IS A GREAT START.

Nicola Spagnolo Jr.

The desecration of a “war Memorial” is a crime, regardless of who is the Victor or the loser. The removal of the statue of General Robert E. Lee is a complete disgrace, yet the radical BLM and Antifa left erect statues and murals to George Floyd who deserves neither to be heard about or remembered.
I for one, demand the statue of General Robert E. Lee be reinstated and kept in all its grandeur, anything less is removing our HISTORY as a Country piece by piece. This cannot stand.
Desecration of war memorials is a CRIME.
Enough!
Furthermore, this is just one, but ONE, of what Hag Pelosi had said, that she, Pelosi, had a quiver of arrows against President Trump.
I demand the removal of Pelosi, sleepy Joe, Kumala, and Swallwell, ASAP!

Stuart

The United States is NOW a Communist Country.
GOD Save the United States!

DONNA L. GRIFFIN

ONLY IF WE ARE NOT BRAVE ENOUGH TO KEEP IT CAN THEY TAKE IT FROM US.

Daniel L. Friedel

Agreed

Stuart

I am Locked N Loaded and ready to ROLL!

Prize

Trump’s love of losers knows no bounds since he has entered their ranks. Robert E. Lee admitted defeat, and lived with it. Trump pretends he was not defeated for he is not man enough to handle it-John Dean.

Ken

Awww, and there you are, you special little prize.
Feel better now? I know that you Haters live on hate, but that really isn’t what this forum is for. Best you go somewhere else and spit your venom where it might actually register in someone’s mind. You’ve completely ignored the point of this discussion so you could go straight to your poison. You should seek psychiatric help for you TDS. It’s making you spew TuRDs.

DONNA L. GRIFFIN

PRIZE YOU ARE NO PRIZE YOU ARE DUMBER THAN A BOX OF ROCKS.

Parrish Tim

We will see who ends up on top in the history books. Trump has the people. You got lies. You had your chance to be truth tellers, but you loved lies.

Daniel L. Friedel

If you really believe he lost the election, why would you be bothering to come here spewing all the anti the anti-Trump BS- ??? Go Be a socialist somewhere else.

Stuart

China is nice this time of year!

Stuart

Losers = Biden/Obummer

ELW

They should display it at the Robert E. Lee Memorial! Why not? Everybody is not going to agree with all the statues past and present, just saying….🇺🇸❤️🇺🇸

Ken

Even a great leader can be fighting for the wrong side.

ELW

Right! 🇺🇸

Matt

The destruction of our history is disgusting and evil. Our heritage is who we are. Without our history nothing is left our country. All that would remain are the socialists hell bent on more control and lies for the future generations.

- CALLING ALL PATRIOTS -

WE NEED YOU!

Empower the voice of the 45th President with your support!
