Takiyah Thompson, a member of the radical, communist far-left Workers World Party and sympathizer with North Korea, topped the Confederate Statute of Robert E. Lee at the Duram County Courthouse because the statute offended her.
Offended her?
Dozens of other counties are considering removing Confederate statutes because they might offend someone. Can you say “snowflake thinking?”
We must ask, are the confederate statutes offensive because they represent evil, or is the “offense” due to ingrained weaknesses and defects in those being offended?
Benjamin Hill said Robert E. Lee was the most perfect man he had ever met. The Lee statue communicates the best of men, the best of the South, and the most noble purpose for which they fought and died. These great Americans deserve to be remembered. Winners of wars are not always right, and those defeated are not necessarily wrong.
Jesus was killed by the Jews and Romans, and He was certainly altogether more righteous than his accusers.
These memorials are not evil nor do they represent any kind of malice.
But, if you’ve been taught that Robert E. Lee was a white, racist pig, then you might be offended by his statue. But, your offense would be rooted in willful ignorance and disinformation spread by those with a depraved political agenda; that is, your offense would represent deep, flawed, weaknesses and evil in your own character.
So, what are states going to do, remove memorials based on the hate, bias, and prejudice of snowflakes who are easily offended?
Let’s consider a reductio ad absurdam argument:
If Christian churches offend Muslims, shall we bulldoze them down?
If the constitution offends communists, should we burn it?
If church bells irritate atheists, should a city order them silent on Sunday morning?
If the Alamo offends a few Mexicans, shall Texans order it destroyed?
If crosses at Arlington Cemetery offend Jews, should Congress pass a bill to have them removed?
If blacks want to demolish all memorials dedicated to American heroes, howbeit it white, what’s next: the killin’ of white people they don’t like?
If the names of white people on street signs in California offends illegal immigrants, should the state have all the streets renamed with Spanish surnames?
If blacks are offended by all the white guys on Mount Rushmore, should South Dakota dynamite the memorial?
The answer is “No!” because the memorials represent the best of America and not the worst of America. The offense is due to weaknesses, defects, faults, and deformities of mind, knowledge, and beliefs of the ones who claim to be offended.
If a Muslim is offended by the memorial to Puritans at Plymouth Rock, so what? They can push the pedal to the metal and leave the country ASAP.
The weakness of Takiyah Thompson are glaring: a poor education, ignorance, stupidity, willful blindness, bias, prejudice, racism, pride, arrogance, criminal intent, and black supremacy values.
If she’s easily offended by memorials to President Jefferson Davis, Robert E. Lee, Stonewall Jackson, Jefferson Davis, or George Washington, she should grow up and get over it. If she can’t, she should boogie it out of the country and go back to Nigeria . . . or move to North Korea?
