A much needed history lesson

New Orleans has one of the highest crime rates in the nation. But instead of focusing on that, they've decided to take out history instead. For weeks now, they're been removing monuments from the Civil War that have been there for over a hundred years. Monuments not built by racist but by people interested in honoring their history. And this is the graffiti we see around town.

Nice.

Imagine is someone wrote "I Hate Blacks" on a monument of MLK. The media would be in an uproar about it. The culprits would be sought after and prosecuted to the highest consent. But this racist hate against whites is not even being mentioned except through social media who are their locally and against at some of the things that have been written on the monuments. I don't even feel comfortable posting them on my site they're so ugly.

If you want to tear down something that really stood for slavery than tear down the pyramids of Egypt.

Seriously. Slave labor built these things. Slaves we mistreated, died and killed while making them. It's the one of the biggest atrocities in earth's history yet we glorify them as wonders of the world. When in truth it was a vane Pharaoh who cared nothing for human life. If the country of Egypt said they were taking down the pyramids because of the wicked symbols they stand for the whole world would be in an uproar over maintaining them for history's sake.  

But instead, we're left to suffer in a time where garbage like this is acceptable.

Completely disgusting.
