Dort wo man Bücher verbrennt, verbrennt man auch am Ende Menschen.
Dort wo man Bücher verbrennt, verbrennt man auch am Ende Menschen.
"Where they have burned books, they will end in burning human beings." Heinrich Heine I think the same thing applies to people removing statues of former prominent citizens. If anyone thinks that these people will be satisfied by the removal of the statue of some old white racist you are sadly mistaken. It will not stop there. Next will be all the memorials in Washington DC. The namesake of the city itself, George Washington, will be decried as a racist and his image will have to be destroyed. Next will be Jefferson, then Lincoln. Does anybody remember Winston Smith in George Orwell's 1984? His job is to alter or rectify all past news articles that have been proven to be "false." The past, good bad and indifferent cannot be changed simply by trying to destroy all the persons places and things contained within it that you don't like or agree with. Yes, they will end up burning and tarring down until there is nothing left to burn and tare down, except for the burning of human beings. Auschwitz or Dachau anyone? If anyone thinks the church, such as it is, will be sheltered and immune from this kind of insanity, they will be sadly mistaken again. Witness Lee wasn't really much different than Winton Smith in 1984. He tried to rewrite history and he failed miserably. The blended brothers are just a chip of the ole block. They're a bunch of Winston Smiths themselves. |

Why not use democratic means to decide what monuments stay and go? Since when does "political correctness" trump the constitution? How is that any different from the Nazi's illegal attacks on communists and jews? For example, suppose a man sees someone smash his tail light with a bat, so he gets in his car and runs them down and kills them. We would all agree that killing the person was not justified and we would also all agree that it was wrong to bash in the tail light. One is a misdemeanor, the other a felony. One crime is several orders of magnitude greater, but the first crime provoked the second and in a court of law would go a long way to mitigating the punishment doled out. Still we don't want this to happen again so we see that this man who ran the person down was mentally unstable. We also learn that the group he was associating with was spouting hate that also provoked this man. Do they have freedom of speech? Yes, but they are not demonstrating responsibility in their speech. I would like the law to state that you are liable for speech that provokes people, or could be seen as provoking people to crimes.

Re: Dort wo man Bücher verbrennt, verbrennt man auch am Ende Menschen.
Oh great another limousine liberal. Winston Smith was a limousine liberal too, so you're in good company. Typical progressive preacher who only likes to preach to the choir, his own choir, cause he doesn't like it when the choir preaches back at him! So Winston, who gets to decide when and where the tarring down and burning stops? Where does it end? What about when you run out of old dead white guys? What's next? Middle aged white women? What about white left handed, one armed wall paper hangers? Oh, and don't forget about those evil "white Hispanics". (sorry George, you defended yourself against the wrong guy so you have to go) Of course when you run out of those guys you'll turn the guns on all those Uncle Tom black republicans, they will probably be next to walk the plank. Not many of them so whose next?
You see, eventually you and others like you will run out of people, places, things and books you don't like. What then? I'll tell you what then. Eventually Winston Smith has to turn on his own. Even the ones who went along with the program will find themselves in the crosshairs. Ask your buddies Bill and Hillary about this one. 8 years ago she found out she wasn't "black" enough, then this past year she found out she wasn't "progressive" enough. She couldn't even beat out an old worn out, broken down socialist like Bernie Sanders. She had to cheat the system to get the nomination. But Hillary, like all Winston Smiths, could never leave well enough alone. She just had to take one last shot at the only group that could keep her from taking her rightful place on her majesty's throne, that little basket of deplorables. Most of them were people who had voted for democrats their whole lives. But as I said, eventually Winston gets his come-uppins. So that basket of deplorables ended up sending Hillary to hell in her own basket. |

Quote:
I'm glad we're putting a spotlight on our racist past. The white supremacists at C'Ville want us to keep the European roots of our founding. Which means keeping whites in power ... and keeping blacks (and reds) (and Jews) (and those of color) down, or out if possible. Isn't it time that we object to our racist past? Isn't taking down Confederate memorials making that statement? And it doesn't remove history, or revise it. Statues aren't the way we learn history. If you want to know history read books. Then you'll learn that our founders were hypocrites. That they could write "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal," and then not include blacks, and reds, as "all men." And that's the heritage white supremacists want us to keep. So I say, while we finally accomplished our Dec. of Independence, let's make a statement to that fact, and take down all the confederate symbols. They are symbols of hate. Obviously white supremacists love them. And are willing to kill for them.

Great point. I would like to see some of these forum "antifas" research liberal history in America. They might learn that they are really expediting their own demise.

Re: Dort wo man Bücher verbrennt, verbrennt man auch am Ende Menschen.
"Our racist past". Speak for yourself. I've never mistreated a person of color, much left done anything remotely racist. Neither did my parents or their parents before them. My ancestors came over on something not much better than the infamous slave ships with no food, no clothes, no money, no nothing. They were persecuted and suffered prejudice for their nationality and their accent. They picked themselves up by their bootstraps and worked cleaning toilets and kitchens. Nobody gave them nothing.
My question still stands. When does it stop? Where does it stop? Who gets to decide when and where? Not that limousine liberals give a ****, there is more institutional slavery going on all over the world, including America than any current politician wants to admit. Every day young girls are brought into sex slavery. Of course we don't hear **** from these black lives matter or move on people about this because if they march, turn over police cars and loot about this kind of tragedy CNN won't cover that for one minute. You lemo liberals need to stop bitching about a few toothless hillbilly skin heads running around with homemade torches, and worry about the tens of thousands of girls and boys of color getting sold down the river by all of our politicians. Get a job, pay your taxes and get your lazy ass into the voting booth and vote your conscience. It will all work out. |

So you got a racist past, then deal with it. Let these antifas come over to your house and bust it up.
.................................................. .......... Didn't I tell you to watch D'Souza'a documentary? It was not "white" men who killed the yellow man and enslaved the black man, it was liberal white Democrat politicians (in the North and the South) who are to blame. Get your history correct.

No racist past? Quakers? Did any of your ancestors vote for Andrew Jackson? Did they support the Union? and Lincoln? And yes, I'm in Kentucky. I've got racists in my extended family even today. My mom's side wasn't very racist, but had to live with it. My dad is a different story. He was an unapologetic racist. I remember more than once we were sitting in a restaurant waiting for our food and a black man would walk in. My dad would stand up, and shout to whoever he thought was running the place "We don't eat with no niggers," and out we'd march. Now that I grew up resisting that, does that make me a liberal? or Antifa? I can't be. I get no checks from George Soros?

My ancestors came here during the early part of the 20th century from north eastern Europe (Poland, Prussia, Austria, Finland) looking for jobs and trying to escape their own depression. They had nothing when they came here, no social programs, no food stamps, no welfare, no nothing. So they worked, and they were thankful. The gov't gave them nothing, yet I never heard them complain about it.

My family had a direct relationship with the KKK. They bombed my uncle's house while his wife and two kids were inside. They did that because he was very vocal at supporting the black churches and their pastors that were being targeted by racists. Later the man who bombed his house apologized to him and he forgave him. Going further back in history we are pretty sure we are descended from a slave. Although we have had to piece the history together it seems he was a Jew from Hungary, spent some time on a Turkish slave ship and then somehow escaped. He appears to have fled to the US, went to MO under an assumed name. On my dad's side we can trace our history back to the mayflower, definitely not as interesting. But he was born in Shanghai, and was at Pearl Harbor when it was bombed (the Arizona was anchored about 100 feet from his back yard -- house is designated with historical markers).

Re: Dort wo man Bücher verbrennt, verbrennt man auch am Ende Menschen.
I think what is forgotten by many and even by the President is that the "real America" does not fly confederate flags or swastikas.
I think they were right to tear down the statues reminding them of the dark past in America's history. There's no place for the confederate flag to be flying anywhere in America, just like there is no place for the swastika flag flying in Germany. Well some Americans fly swastika flags too... which is puzzling because America fought the Nazis. If it was WW2 era I'm sure the military would have just shot these swastika wearing losers. The Nazis were the losers and so were the Confederates. What country would fly the flag of its losers? What truly American President would support people who fly the flags of losers and declare them to be "fine people"? No other country in the world does this sort of thing. If Germany could tear down their Nazi symbols after WW2 then surely, in the year 2017, America can tear down their symbols of oppression and even introduce tough laws forbidding those symbols from being used, like Germany has. There is a very good article here explaining the similarities: https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/...=.c9b1c3abe24c |

What if the protesters were carrying North Korean flags instead of Confederate flags? What if Trump had said some of those among the people carrying NK flags were "fine people"? Trump is supposed to be the President of a country called the United States of America. The confederate flag, its former generals and those who stand by its ideals do not represent the same country that Trump stands for. Confederacy and its flag was and still symbolizes an attempt to create a new country and reject the Union (the USA). Therefore Trump was supporting in effect, a foreign country which is opposed to the USA. Calling such people "fine people" does not sit right with me. They should be treated like any other foreigners who wish to setup a country opposed to the USA. e.g. Citizenship revoked and sent out of the country. Those who destroyed the statue of Lee to me seem to be true Americans as they were destroying the statue of a foreign general. |

Re: Dort wo man Bücher verbrennt, verbrennt man auch am Ende Menschen.
Quote:
The purpose of the rally was to protest the suggestion that the city remove a statue of Robert E Lee. The rally was a constitutionally approved method for US citizens to participate in the democratic process. The rally consisted of many White Supremacists and noted KKK members, both very vile and hateful groups, which is why it is estimated they number less than 0.003% of the US population. Still, US citizens nonetheless and as a result they have the constitutional right to protest especially since they had a permit. The antifa group did not have a permit, and because they were fighting with the group in the rally the police cancelled the rally. In this way the antifa group successfully denied the KKK and White Supremacists their constitutional right to free speech. As with other fringe groups, many of their members are mentally unstable, one of them drove a car into a group of antifa people and killed one. What I don't understand is this: if you want to remove a statue it seems this should be done democratically, with people on both sides expressing their views prior to the vote. This is what was being done. But for some reason everyone, and I mean everyone who has a megaphone is applauding mob rule. They are applauding the antifa for shutting down the rally, they are applauding people tearing down monuments and they are applauding cities removing and boarding up monuments without any vote. Did I miss something? If this is so important why couldn't these monuments be removed during Obama's administration? Or Clinton's 8 years? Or the Bush's terms? Or Reagan, or Nixon, or LBJ, or Kennedy, or Eisenhower, etc. What did I miss that now it has to be done in the middle of the night?

As Germany did, one of the best ways to stop the problem is to remove the symbols and introduce laws banning the use of such symbols. The laws are probably not practical in the US but removing the symbols is practical. There is a degree of hypocrisy in that America and the allies helped Germany to rid itself of Nazism in a relatively short period of time, but did not treat the similar problem on its own soil but left it there to fester since the end of the civil war. Of course there are still Nazis in Germany and Europe but the problem is kept in check by banning the symbols and enforcement. What Germany has done over the past 70 years America has failed to do over the past 150 years. |

I am against all KKK and neo-Nazi rhetoric. They have a history of violence, but so does the radical left. Why single out one side? I personally don't feel that Black Lives Matter represents America. They have marches protected by Police and yet they chant "Death to cops, death to pigs." Then we have assassinations of police officers (men, women, black, white, Hispanic, Asian) by BLM activists. Recently a black police officer in NYC was gunned down in cold blood for the simple reason she wore the uniform. She was a great mom and loving person. What if Trump had said that some of these BLM protesters are good people? What you also be outraged? Shouldn't these BLM anarchists be treated as foreigners too? Obama invited BLM and other race "hustlers" like Al Sharpton into his White House regularly. When did you call him out on that? Obama was supporting, in effect, a foreign country which is opposed to the USA. Aren't they attempting to create a new country using violence and lawlessness?

America is not a democracy, it is a republic. A democracy is rule by the majority, and quickly can deteriorate into a mob rule where the majority wins the fight. America is a republic based on rule of law. If people don't like confederate symbols, then use the law to remove them. If people don't want KKK or white supremacist marches, then use the law to prevent them. I find it so ironic that ones like Evangelical who twists the scripture in order to condemn all denominational Christians would also promote lawlessness to rid the world of his other "deplorables."

I was referring to the persons who approved putting monuments to the confederate LOSERS on the grounds of county and state courthouses to send the message that white men are in charge. I said NOTHING approving mob rule and never supported mob rule. You are lying about me.

America's leading CEOs are fleeing from Trump like he's the plague.

But might I point out that Germany, after WWII, took down all the Nazi symbols. Why? Because it was a very embarrassing past. And guess what, their history wasn't hasn't been forgotten. So maybe we should remove all our embarrassing monuments. I'm hearing, "where does it stop? Do we take down George Washington, for holding slaves?" But Washington was a winner, not a loser like R. E. Lee. And Lee is a symbol of those that fought for slavery. Conversely, Washington fought for freedom. Now Trump is saying not to take down Lee, or any others. I thought Trump hated losers. Methinks Trump's racism is sticking out like a sore thumb. Good ol' Kentucky boy Mitch McConnell should love that. What's he? a tractor republican? or a Hummer conservative?

No one to my understanding was discussing putting them up, a process which probably took place over 100 years ago though I don't know. You may be right that the spirit behind those who initially put them up was not right, but if the citizens of NC or any other Southern state wish to remedy that then use the constitutional provisions. There are several things that have bothered me about this entire episode. 1. No one would have cared about some stupid KKK rally in NC had it not been for the antifa fighting them leading to the killing. 2. The issue over some stupid statue, do we keep it or take it down, is so completely meaningless to more important issues that we are facing. How does the media dive into this as though it is important? 3. If people are truly concerned about these statues why didn't they do anything about it over the last 8 years during Obama's terms. Why now? It seems very contrived to me. 4. We have ISIS, a group that can easily be compared to the KKK, as well as militant Black factions. Perhaps the leadership of Black Lives Matter does not espouse violence, but just like this event people sympathetic to their movement take it upon themselves to commit atrocities. I have always felt that the name "Black Lives Matter" is very provocative and threatening. I also felt it would cause a back lash among these fringe white supremacists. These groups do not get support unless it looks like they are on the front lines fighting your battle. This event seemed contrived to show these white supremacists as protecting the rights of whites, whereas the police murders seem designed to provoke cops into doing something that will go viral on Youtube.

Re: Dort wo man Bücher verbrennt, verbrennt man auch am Ende Menschen.
Really? Got any evidence? Or is this all a media smear job?
Can someone be a racist for simply not climbing on the bandwagon? Since you are from Kentucky, and you never talked about being a confederate iconoclast until now, shall I assume that you just recently had a change of heart? Therefore, up until now, you have been a closet racist. Your dad was one. You must be one too. You're not getting off that easy. You are projecting your own racism on Trump. I saw a serious of video clips last night on Hannity where Trump disavowed and condemned the KKK, neo-nazis, and white supremacists going back 20 years. So he is obviously not a racist. But from you, Mr. Awareness, I have never heard anything like that for the past 20 years. Therefore, the evidence is mounting that that perhaps you are the real racist. Your comments after the Charlottesville, VA tragedy prove it. Fess up or act like an ostrich.

Suggesting a moral equivalence between a number of acts carried out by the Allies during the Second World War and the deeds of the Nazis, especially the Final Solution is a common strategy employed by apologists for the Nazis in Germany, such as politicians of the National Democratic Party of Germany. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moral_equivalence |

Re: Dort wo man Bücher verbrennt, verbrennt man auch am Ende Menschen.
The lawless alt-left anarchists are using the smokescreen created in Charlottesville, VA to activate their destructive base in order to completely restructure America.
Folks we are not taking about random statues in the deep South, but monuments all across the US. Wait till they unleash these guys on Wash D.C. Quote:

So I suppose this could be fake news (Trump's racism is sticking out like a sore thumb to these Rabbi's): Rabbi That Oversaw Ivanka Trump’s Conversion to Judaism Slams Trump on Charlottesville Response The rabbi who oversaw Ivanka Trump’s conversion to Judaism has released a letter to the congregation of Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump’s longtime synagogue condemning President Trump’s widely criticized statements about the violent protests in Charlottesville. In a letter sent to members of Congregation Kehilath Jeshurun this evening, Rabbi Emeritus Haskel Lookstein (who oversaw Ivanka’s conversion), along with his successors Rabbi Chaim Steinmetz and Rabbi Elie Weinstock, said, “We are appalled by this resurgence of bigotry and antisemitism, and the renewed vigor of the neo-Nazis, KKK, and alt-right.” The letter went on: “While we avoid politics, we are deeply troubled by the moral equivalency and equivocation President Trump has offered in his response to this act of violence.” Copy of letter here (but it could all be made up out of whole cloth ... some will no doubt claim). http://nymag.com/daily/intelligencer...ams-trump.html

During WW2 the allies accepted any help they could get against the fascists, like the communists, anarchists, anyone who could beat up Nazis. Anarchists, not fascists, are the traditional allies of the US and they stand for the things the US is supposed to stand for in the world, even if they take them too far and their methods are wrong. They are more about fighting fascism than violently pursuing a leftist agenda so I don't think there is anything to be concerned about them taking down all kinds of monuments. |

How can you extol the "vision of anarchists" as being not as bad as supremacists? Wanton violence by the alt-left can somehow be excused? Tell that to the families of police officers gunned down because they were in uniform. Tell that to all the victims of wanton criminal activity. Sorry Evan Gee but your smarts are seriously lacking wisdom.

Now that the bulk of the GOP are flaccid toward Trump calling Nazis good people, we know that they support the Nazis, KKK, and white supremacists.
And since they are the majority this concerns me way more than any violence of the hate haters.

I guess all those Nazi genes from the 1000 or so Nazi scientists America took from Germany at the end of WW2 are finally starting to emerge from the gene pool as leaders.

Chicago Times does a better job. "Ald.

Lopez said Trump’s widely condemned decision to twice blame “both sides” for the white nationalist rally that turned deadly in Virginia has emboldened haters." http://chicago.suntimes.com/chicago-politics/674297/ The truth is they don't know who vandalized the Abe bust.

Go back to Humperdink's opening post and read again. Soon the media will begin to blame every crime and social ill on "Trump the fascist." Wolf Blitzer yesterday suggested that Barcelona was a copycat of C'ville, implying that Trump will soon get blamed for those events too.

Re: Dort wo man Bücher verbrennt, verbrennt man auch am Ende Menschen.
I think you are referring to his saying that many of the people at the rally were "fine" people. The word fine can also mean "satisfactory behavior". It was a very poor job on his part, but to say that some of them behaved in a satisfactory way, referring to the rally is not worthy of this hoopla.
The day he declared his intent to run he said illegal aliens from Mexico were rapists, drug dealers and some of them were good people. After the Democrats convention he insulted the parents of a gold star war hero. If people who elected him are upset that now he is putting his foot in his mouth then shame on them. On the other hand if this is sour grapes from all those who didn't vote for him then shame on them.

Re: Dort wo man Bücher verbrennt, verbrennt man auch am Ende Menschen.
"An infographic from the Southern Poverty Law Center demonstrates that the majority of the monuments were built between 1910 and 1920 as Jim Crow became law throughout the south and, later, during the 1950s and 1960s as African Americans demanded full citizenship.
These are monuments to white supremacy, and therein lies the connection with the “white supremacist thugs” we saw in Charlottesville. But Trump, like so many others, chooses to actively forget this history in order to preserve an illusory innocence that hides our national sins." (from a story on Yahoo news). If this is the case by all means mobilize a group of those concerned, Perhaps the NAACP and move for legislation to remove these statues. Confront it. Very few of us knew when "most of these statues" were built or what the motive was. We don't live in these states. But you live in a democracy, if you are offended at a statue that was erected in your state or city by all means work to get a referendum passed to remove the statue. No one has any issue with whether or not NC keeps or removes the statue. The only issue is that you have people dressed in black, with masks on, going around beating people with clubs because they disagree with them, tearing down statues illegally, and vandalizing the statues.
