It's just narrow minded social justice that makes white people feel better about what they had no hand in, but likely have their own unjust feelings that they hide by doing all of this.
Marten Luther King Jr. hated homosexuals and didn't feel that they should have had any rights. No one would speak of kicking down his statues. Nor should they.
Georg Washington owned slaves, even supported slavery, and no one has mentioned ripping down the Washington Monument or changing the dollar bill.
Abe Lincoln openly stated that blacks should not have the same rights as whites and should be sent back to where they came from. No one would ever speak about ripping down any of Lincoln's monuments or the five dollar bill.
Make statues of absolutely anything. Don't care even a little bit. Make a statue of that guy carrying the kids, make a giant one of Malcolm X, make a big one of a penis made out of rubber that flops around in a heavy wind (that would actually be funny as hell). Don't care even a little bit. But ripping them down because a bunch of white people are offended because of historical facts; That is a very narrow minded feelgood by a very loud minority that will have absolutely zero positive influence on absolutely anything whatsoever.
