Trump Issues Executive Order To Rebuild Non-Confederate Monuments That Have Been Torn Down By Protesters

Ahead of the Fourth of July weekend, President Donald Trump issued an executive order that would create a new national park to display statues and monuments dedicated to “American Heroes,” including those that have been torn down by protesters in the past month. The order lists specific criteria...

Well said. I like this idea.

See, I gave Trump credit for a good idea.

Nah, hard pass on EOs.

Nah, hard pass on EOs.

If it is something that is within a defined discretionary budget that was allocated by the Congress (or becomes so) I have zero problem with this.

While I applaud the action, I don't believe it required an EO. Just do it.

If that's the case, let's just vote on it.

Was the Confederacy not part of America's History?
It's not OK to erase America's history... Except, for the certain parts that the cry babies, really, really, really, don't like?

Is it wrong? To honor the brave men who attempted to free themselves from a centralized tyrannical government.
Is it wrong? To honor the brave men who attempted to fight off an "invading" army.

But what do I care... I really do not give a fuck anymore.
BLM / ANTIFA runs around creating mayhem and destruction. And they are not held accountable.
But, the law abiding citizens, business owners, and cops, get wrecked for defending themselves from the animals.
On top of that, the whole COVID-19 shitshow going on speaks for itself.

Erase my heritage... Yeah, fuck this shit...
I'm done, IDGAF anymore... Let it burn.

A great deal of the beauty and attraction of these Monuments is their age. Reproductions are never the same.

That said, what's gone is gone. And even a repro begins to age the moment it is created.

Traditionally Statues have been created from Bronze or Stone, and apparently most were poorly mounted, relying on gravity alone.

Could we create new Statues from STEEL ? With a non-stick COATING ?

And bolt the suckers down to re-barred concrete.

Challenge the vermin a little !

Build new statues with the bones of communists.

My preference would have been to spend the money for police overtime to prevent their destruction in the first place. Ounce of prevention and all that.

Why non-stick? So they slide off like those old frying pan ads?

Have to chuckle at that!!
