Someone said George Washington is next.
Here in Asheville NC they tore down a 120 foot high obelisk for Governor Vann. Governor during the Civil War, he owned slaves. Horrors! This beautiful memorial was right in the middle of downtown. Just tore it down a month ago.

And George Washington is next! He owned slaves too.
You can bet the Washington Monument is on the chopping block.

Charlottesville is insane woke. Passed through there last fall... got kicked out of the first store I tried to patronage because my mask was below my nose. Didn't make it more than 3 minutes in there. It was also the first and only place I've seen people jogging while wearing face masks. I got the fug out of there lickety split.
