Downtown Indy Riots/damage overnight...

In a similar vein, I have the solution to the border. Create a constant, 100m wide "DMZ" like the old E/W German border. Barbed wire on both sides, land mines between, and automatic sentry guns every 100m. Cameras everywhere. Make the feed PPV and use the proceeds to fund the construction. Knowing the sick F-ers here (in the world, not INGO) we would run a surplus.

Oh, and if you can make it across alive, you get to stay. And maybe even get a tee shirt. LOL

Damon Killian : This is television, that's all it is. It's nothing to do with people, it's to do with ratings! For fifty years, we've told them what to eat, what to drink, what to wear... for Christ's sake, Ben, don't you understand? Americans love television. They wean their kids on it. Listen. They love game shows, they love wrestling, they love sports and violence. So what do we do? We give 'em *what they want*! We're number one, Ben, that's all that counts, believe me. I've been in the business for thirty years.

Ben Richards : Well, I haven't been in show business as long as you have, Killian. But I'm a quick learner. So, I'm going to give the audience what *I* think they want.

"INDIANAPOLIS — A man is safe after climbing up the side of the Soldiers & Sailors Monument in downtown Indianapolis early Friday morning.
The man stayed there for more than four hours, streaming live on Facebook. A few police officers came to Monument Circle to talk to the man, and even sat with him for a while.
At one point, the man was yelling and pointing at the part of the inscription that mentions “colored infantries.”
A few other people joined the man for a couple of hours, but just after 4 a.m., police and members from “Indy 10 Black Lives Matter” were able to convince him to come down and safely off the monument."

I wonder what else is bothering these candyass *******.

I'm wondering which 10 they're thinking of. Doesn't seem very inclusive.

I read last night that the Indianapolis Parks dept had authorized the removal of the Confederate memorial in 2017 and that Hog**** had just gotten around to approval now that he needed a "cool bro" thang.

**** Hog****t.... That bastard can go straight to Hell.

They're starting to dismantle it at an estimated cost of between $50 and $100K... but they still don't know where the funding will come from. I think he went to the AOC school of economics. "Well, you just pay for it!"

 

[Alpo]

Yep. I've been to the memorial. It isn't bothering anyone. Most people don't recognize what it is for.

These soldiers weren't slavers. They fought for a cause they believed in...or like most other young lads, they got caught up in the adventure.


But, SJW's are big on throwaway culture. It's only historic if it's older than the last iPhone and not as old as an iPhone 5s. And White Guilt, of course.

 

[Leadeye]

White privilege. I am still waiting on mine.

A phrase for the ages, it should be carved in stone somewhere.

Yep. Essentially it was a fancy gravestone. So will they now call for going through cemeteries, finding the graves of anyone that served in the Confederate army and removing their gravestones? Seems like the next logical step.

Hogsett would tear it down. Better put it up in Greenwood.

Wait - There's a Confederate memorial in Indianapolis?

Sorta, a memorial to the Confederate POWs that died in a camp here. Started out at the actual gravesite (I think), but then got moved to Garfield Park at a time when the KKK was active in state government (which may or may not have influenced the move).

OK, that makes a bit of sense.



Hey, I wonder how many monuments of Socialist States of America President Sanders will go up after the coming civil war?

 

[Phase2]

None that won't be destroyed. The precedent has been set.

Locusts are now setting direction for urban policy.

You need to get out more.

Did you know that they grown corn and soybeans in Indiana?

I just watched the president's news conference about an increase in the job market. And I think he signed a relief bill. I don't know, it's like someone talking about fishing and how great the fish are and just trying to stay awake.

Point, he slammed mayor Hogsett. He said People were running from the police because they told them to. I'm not talking about the governor, I'm talking about the mayor.

Wait what?

Trump slammed Hogsett for something? Granted, there's a fair amount of fodder for that, but what exactly? I'm not following.

 

[Sigblitz]

Possibly. I heard Indianapolis, but it was on my phone.

 

[Sigblitz]

Minneapolis. Listened to it again.
