Quote The book Grandfather Tales of North Carolina History (1901) states that: During the late unhappy war between the States it [North Carolina] was sometimes called the "Tar-heel State," because tar was made in the State, and because in battle the soldiers of North Carolina stuck to their bloody work as if they had tar on their heels, and when General Lee said, "God bless the Tar-heel boys," they took the name.

I am sure even someone as sheltered as you knows that.......................but I realize that there is no defense for tearing down GEORGE WASHINGTON. So you have to go with a lie.

B-Man Posted June 19, 2020 Posted June 19, 2020 George Washington Just Got Cancelled and None of This Is Going to Stop One of the great delusions among many who are currently sitting on the sidelines is that if they just give the mob an inch, it’ll be satisfied with an inch and go home. But I think, deep down, everyone knows that’s not true. If the Trump era has taught us anything, it’s that feeding the mob only emboldens the mob. In that respect, that’s one reason why so many are reluctant to buy into the Black Lives Matter movement. It’s not that they are against protecting black lives. Rather, they see the inevitable overreach and note that the train never slows down once it gets rolling. Normal people said “Hey, let’s talk about sensible police reforms” after the George Floyd killing. BLM said let’s abolish the police and capitalism is evil. Left-wing activists never stop because their goal is never really what it is first articulated as. Case in point? Many were against the widespread destruction of Confederate statues, not because they cared deeply about those specific statues, but because they knew that allowing such third-world behavior would lead to other things. Well, we are now at that point. The police were nowhere to be found as the statue of George Washington wasn’t just toppled, but was desecrated with phrases like “**** the police” and “1619” among mentions of “BLM.” Of note is that Washington was 113 years from even being born in 1619. The country he would later lead was also over 150 years from being established. But none of this has to make sense. This movement is not one of intellectual heft or nuance. It’s one of cheap slogans and indiscriminate hate. Giving in to the mob, even if the mob may have a point on some marginal issue inside their mess of an ideology, only leads to more violence and destruction. That’s why it’s best to not play the game at that point. Every politician and pundit who’s spent the last week trying to rename military bases is complicit in this madness. Your pathetic coddling of these domestic terrorists led to this. 2

It's the natural course of the Leftist movement. After Washington, it will be all of the Founding Fathers, then anything they had to do with. 2
B-Man Posted June 19, 2020 Posted June 19, 2020 IT'S NOT ABOUT THE CONFEDERACY ! We told you that back on the first page in 2015.......... Imagine being on the Right and being such a sucker that you thought it was ever about a military base named after a general who died 150 years ago. 4
OldTimeAFLGuy Posted June 20, 2020 Posted June 20, 2020 ...and we thought Covid-19 was bad......this IS a real pandemic...... ,...thought ex-Mayor Ray Nagan called it his, "chocolate city"....why was everything copacetic THEN??.............. 1
B-Man Posted June 22, 2020 Posted June 22, 2020 First, they came for the Confederates... by Monica Showalter Original Article First, they came for the Confederates... Now that they've toppled Robert E. Lee, and various lesser emblems of the Old South, they're going after far more important targets, and worse still, getting away with it. Is it too extreme to compare the mass destruction of the public monuments and faces adorning cities across the U.S. to the monstrous dynamic that propelled the Nazis to kill? Yes, it's far from the same degree, but the underlying dynamic of what's happening is the same - a spiraling vortex of outrage, which being unchecked, eventually hits home. Three of the latest from San Francisco, are purest Taliban, The hilarious part is, when you lefties will try to spin this as a "defense" of the confederacy, instead of what it is...........?
