We’re talking about DC, dipsht. |
That wasn’t a monument to an a-hole. But I can see how it’d get the racists riled up. |
DP. Huh? I’ve lived here 30 years and my spouse and I travel frequently for work. I’ve literally never heard anyone call it Reagan. Is it something Trumpers do? Or poor people? |
| I love how Congress is wasting time passing bills like this but can’t get the gov funded. Great job guys. |
Congress should just start renaming all the things DC gave dumb names to until the Senate Democrats give in and sign the clean CR. |
I agree that this sounds bonkers, but I also don't think I'd decide who to vote for because someone said something stupid on an anonymous local message board. |
Have any streets in DC been named after George Floyd or Trayvon Martin? |
It’s fine if you didn’t agree with BLM plaza. But that was DCs decision. This is about the federal government imposing their will on DC. So now you are OK with federal overreach? |
+ a million Exactly my thoughts. |
DP. The point is that this is how MANY “liberals” think. If they don’t like something (or someone), then it’s perfectly ok to deface, destroy, damage, etc. And we see examples of this all the time, so please don’t pretend otherwise. |
You’re aware that the Constitution mandates DC is under federal jurisdiction, yes? I don’t care one way or another about the Charlie Kirk renaming, but it gets old when DC residents pretend they’re somehow not a federal jurisdiction. |
You're aware that Republicans once believed local governments knew best and the federal government should stay out of their business, yes? It gets old when Republicans remind us time and time again that they have no principles beyond exerting power over those they don't like. |
Is that what FoxNews is telling you?
|
Republicans generally aren't familiar with the concept of "consent'. |
I don't watch Fox News. You really need to come up with something more original. https://www.nbcwashington.com/news/local/virginia-man-charged-with-defacing-monument-during-netanyahu-protests-in-dc/3733857/ https://www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/2024/06/09/gaza-protest-white-house-vandalism-graffiti/ https://wtop.com/dc/2024/07/police-seek-help-in-identifying-suspects-in-columbus-circle-protest-against-netanyahu-visit/ https://www.cnn.com/2020/05/31/politics/dc-monuments-lincoln-memorial-defaced/ |
