A few days ago I wrote a post about how the protesters wanting to destroy the Emancipation monument were ignorant vandals and savages.
The situation at the monumnet has gotten worse.
An elderly black historian tried to explain to the protesters why they were wrong and had shit for brains.
Anyway, here’s Don Folden, a DC tour guide, making a case for keeping the statue. Glenn wouldn’t let him speak because he’s “old.” pic.twitter.com/7FiiXYXOwD

This follows on the heels of another black historian and reenactor who tried to explain to the public on the news why the monument shouldn’t be torn down.
“That man is not kneeling on two knees with his head bowed. He’s in the act of getting up… looking forward to a future of freedom.”

None of this mattered to the protesters. They had the bellyfeel that they were right.
That’s how you get them ignorantly screaming into the face of black historians how they (the historians) are wrong.

These protesters and activists are the most supremely ignorant people in history.
They literally have the entire wealth of recorded human knowledge at their fingertips. It’s all available online and immediately accessible through the smartphones that they all have.
I can only believe that they have to be willfully ignorant because they should have at least accidentally stumbled onto some bit of knowledge by know.
This is who is leading the Left around by the nose.
As I posted yesterday, H.L. Mencken said:
Moral certainty is always a sign of cultural inferiority. The more uncivilized the man, the surer he is that he knows precisely what is right and what is wrong.
The moral certainty that these people have that they are right despite the total factual inaccuracy of their core assumptions is proof of their uncivilized nature.
They cannot learn because they don’t want to learn. Knowlege will destabilize the moral certainty that they have.
At the core, these people are savages, in the strictest definition of that word.
They will continue to destroy what they don’t know and refuse to know until it is all gone.
There is no reasoning with them. That is abundantly clear.
As they used to say “civilize ’em with a Krag.” I have a feeling it will come to that.
Did you hear towards the end of the first video:
“You haven’t heard from the relatives!”
“That’s my great-great grandfather up there!”
The freed slave wasn’t a generic figure — it’s the likeness of the last man arrested under the Fugitive Slave Act. He volunteered to be part of the statue.
Yup. His name was Archer Alexander.
They are PROUD of their ignorance.
I am terrified at this point that we cannot peacefully resolve this. We’re going to have to kill them because they are literally too stupid to stop and reconsider.
One of the Proud Stupids (I don’t believe any longer that “ignorant” is accurate) is the “delegate” from DC to the House, Eleanor Holmes. She had the nerve to claim that the statue was created “without input from Blacks and it shows”.
I guess Frederick Douglass, who gave the keynote address at its unveiling and praised it at length, doesn’t count in her view. Nor the many who paid for it, nor the freedwoman who started the whole thing just after Lincoln was assassinated, nor Mr. Alexander who was the model for the slave who is rising up from his knees, having just broken his shackles.
More like time to use some of that mil surplus snake and nape. The europeons rebuilt after its’ use. So can the slaves on the DC plantation.
