[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]But why were the white supremacist groups in Charlottesville in the first place? Because Charlottesville recently change the name of "Lee" park to Emancipation Park... Why not Charlottesville Park, or a name of a local community leader, or notable former Charlottesville resident? Why Emancipation Park?

Do you actually believe for one second that the local Charlottesville community people "chose" the name Emancipation Park??? No they did not, the name was forced upon them just like what is happening now in the "Stuart" community. This is a little known fact that was hardly publicized, Charlottesville was not only about the statue removal.

I do NOT support ANY of the violence that occurred in Charlottesville, by any group. And what that idiot did with running the car into people was horrendous, I hope he get's life in prison or worse for what he did. But this is what this issue is coming to.

ALL those groups were in Charlottesville because of the NAACP agenda, to rewrite history and erase the truth.

Slavery is an unfortunate chapter in American history, but it did happen, we can't ignore it, we must learn from it.

For the "actual" Stuart community members that voted to change the name, I have no quarrel with them, this is America, they are allowed to express their views and vote in any way that they see fit.

But for the NAACP and people that are trying to force their will upon communities all over America, this has to stop, it is not "American".

If only people who live in the pyramid can vote, how is the NAACP forcing people to change the name?  Your quarrel is actually with the Stuart community who voted for change because they were the ones who voted for named other than Stuart on Saturday.  Allowing only Stuart community members to vote is what ensures we don't have outsiders dictating what we do.  The vast majority of Stuart members who voted on Saturday did not want Stuart.  I'm sure you'll claim the voting was rigged, but when I went they matched my address with my drivers license.  I'm pretty sure they didn't just single me out.  You might be unhappy with the NAACP, but in this case they aren't responsible for Saturday's vote, community members who took the time to exercise their civic duty are. I and many of my neighbors were a part of that group.  The people passing out fliers were parents of kid my kids are in school with.  I doubt they are all closet NAAP operatives, especially since many of them were white. [/quote]
