I got hit with this from Yahoo News:
From Thomas Jefferson’s own family, a call to take down his memorial
What? Really?
Then I saw this name: Lucian K. Truscott IV
I have written about Truscott IV before. Triscott IV is a piece of shit. He’s not even that. He doesn’t even the moral character to be an entire piece of shit. He’s just a shit stain. Lesser but somehow worse.
As I said in my last post about him, he is the great-great-great-great-grandson of Thomas Jefferson and the grandson of WWII General Lucian Truscott, commander of the 5th Army. Tuscott IV went to West Point on the family name but was discharged under less than honorable conditions after only 13 months of active duty after refusing to go to Vietnam.
Since then, he has gained distinction among the radical Left for being able to consistently shit on America and her history while being the descendent of a Founding Father and a war hero. Simply being the great-great-great-great-grandson of Thomas Jefferson does not imbue him with any greater authority than anyone else. His great-great-great-great-grandfather would have agreed with him, considering that Jefferson spoke out against a monarchy and titles of nobility.
If anything it really does make him an even lower, slimier, more despicable shit stain, as he has figured out how to gain fame and fortune by shitting on the memories of his far greater and more accomplished ancestors.
The last time I wrote about him he was using his legacy as Thomas Jefferson’s great-great-great-great-grandson to explain why you shouldn’t be able to buy a $10,000 precision rifle because it’s a sniper rifle that scares him.
His willingness to exploit his ancestry to push Leftist drivel is how headlines like the one above get published.
Now, back to the story:
A direct descendant of Thomas Jefferson has called for the memorial to the third president to be removed from Washington, D.C.
Writing in the New York Times Monday morning, Lucian K. Truscott IV says his ancestor’s former estate at Monticello is enough of a tribute and that the Jefferson Memorial, located next to the Tidal Basin in the nation’s capital, should be replaced with a statue honoring the abolitionist hero Harriet Tubman.
I’m fine with a memorial for Harriet Tubman. I am not fine with replacing the Jefferson Memorial. Our nation exists because of Thomas Jefferson. He was the primary author of the Declaration of Independence, ambassador to France, Governor of Virginia, the third President of the United States who made the Louisiana Purchase and lead the way to westward expansion by commissioning the Lewis and Clark Expedition. Not to mention that he was perhaps the wisest of the Founding Fathers and know for being the most elegant writer of the Founders.
All his great-great-great-great-grandson wants you to remember is that he owned slaves.
“I am the sixth-generation great-grandson of a slave owner,” Truscott continues. “My cousins from the Sally Hemings family are also the great-grandchildren of a slave owner. But the difference is that our great-grandfather owned their great-grandmother. My family owned their family. That is the American history you will not learn when you visit the Jefferson Memorial. But you will learn it when you visit Monticello: There’s now an exhibit of Sally Hemings’s bedroom in her cavelike living quarters in the south wing, a room my brother and I used to play in when we were boys.”
This is the guy that the radical Left will trot out and say “even Jefferson’s great-great-great-great-grandson says it’s okay to destroy this memorial” as though it belongs to him. It doesn’t. The legacy of Thomas Jefferson is in the beating heart of every American who loves this country, which arguably precludes his great-great-great-great-grandson.
Truscott is the lowest form of snake shit in the country. A despicable worthless shit stain than can only build himself up by cannibalizing the legacy of superior ancestors. He should be shamed and driven out of society and anyone that quotes him favorably or uses him as justification for iconoclasm should be dipped in boiling roofing tar and rolled in feathers.
Ummm, I don’t think he is who he thinks he is. TJ didn’t have any children, at least that he claimed. So it’s hard to be a direct descendant of someone like that.
