Never let a crisis go to waste right?
I guess in some peoples minds removing a statue will stop institutional racism that is overseen and fueled by the very government that tells us that it must be eliminated.
The very leaders who incited the riots and looting now will refuse to repair the statues that they themselves are complicit in having damaged. Instead they will now simply remove them.
Convenient right?
Who permits social injustice in the cities? Who permits its law enforcement to profile or violate civil rights in the cities where all the protest are happening? Why not have civilian oversight--non city employees-- of the internal affairs of local law enforcement right?
Go ahead remove the statue.
Then simply watch the next Governor of Virginia put Lee right back up at tax payers expense or will the city then oppose it? How aout the next Governor refuse to provide the City of Richmond with any state funding?
Is there a record of the City Council voting to remove the statues? Was not the new law passed not going into effect intil July 1 permitting statue removal?
Is Mayor Stoney or Governor Northam exercising abuse of power? Does a Governor have the aility to order the removal of a state monument without a vote by the Virginia legislature which is not in session?
Do the monuments that are controlled and maintained by the Commonwealth belong to all Virginians? How can a single locality like Richmond remove monuments that are located in a capital city that belongs to all Virginians?
It is high time that Virginians stop supporting anything in Richmond, Virginia. Stop contributing to the museums pushing liberal revisions and stop contributing to advocacy groups masquerading as charities in the city. Stop visiting every single musuem or facility run that supports the Richmond regime that in fact is the catalyst of institutional racism.
The City of Richmond and Commonwealth of Virginia since 2013 have done nothing to stem the tide of racism. NOTHING. They think removing concrete will address racism. They think that holding rallies and cheering will address racism......take a look at the footage of the cheers of the statue of Saddam falling and then look what happened years later. Did removing that statue remove the decades of civil strife in Iraq?
These leaders care little about history or the lessons from it. They are inviting future division which is exactly what they want. They have been trying to manipulate the issues for a decade now and want us all to believe that a cop in Minnesota is directly related to a staue in Richmond, Virginia. That only if that statue was never in place that George Floyd would be alive.
What they don't want to address is why did their own leader Sen. Amy Klobuchar not address this officer and this department when she had the chance years ago. Why? Answer that.
We have execuitve orders in place determining how we can live our lives yet Northam and Stoney will ignore them for a photo op and rally to remove the statues. The very same people who condemned Trump for a speaking in front of St. Johns Church in DC this week will hold their own rally in clear violation of social distancing and mask orders that they impose on everyone else.
.
If your governmment official seeks to ignore their own orders for political gain should not Virginia business ignore them for theirs?
Do not support the regime that is the City of Richmond any further. A regime that has perpetuated racism for decades and done nothing to address it within is institutions of government like its schools and its police department.

I cannot begin to express the unadulterated Hatred I feel for both Stoney and Northam! I hope something very bad happens to both of them.
