    Obama was a brutal dictator who used chemical weapons against his own citizens and let his children murder people with impunity?

    See that’s where you are wrong. The point is tearing down statues to brutal violators of human rights and freedoms.

    Tearing them down is illegal. Having them removed is one thing, anarchy and your hurt feelings are another thing.

    Helping slaves run away was illegal. Denouncing Saddam was illegal. Failing to Heil Hitler was illegal.

    Tearing down public property is, and always will be illegal. You trying to compare destruction of public property to hitler and slavery doesn't mean jack ****.

    It's a pathetic alt left "justification" for your anarchy.

    Maybe instead of acting like children, they could act like adults and petition and wait for the government to remove it?

    Why do you NEED to break the law?

    So you would have tried the soldiers who tore down the statues of Saddam?

    You would have put the Founders on trial when they tore down statues of George III?

    Why did those people need to throw tea into a harbor?

    I like the 'traitorous' bit. Never heard that word from the Left until this re-writing of the past began. Utterly phoney. The flag-burner 'patriots'.

    But ... if we must destroy statues to people who believed in slavery, then George Washington and Thomas Jefferson have got to go.

    And if we want to remove statues of people who believed in white supremacy, then Abraham Lincoln has got to go.

    Did these soldiers tear down a statue in the United States? We're not talking about Iraq. Man up and stop deflecting.

    This is about destruction of public property.

    So you're saying, that Americans should take it upon themselves to destroy public property that offends them.

    INSTEAD of petitioning the government and waiting for it to be removed like an American would do?

    You refused to answer why you choose anarchy over civility?

    Are you going to deflect again with some stupid Hitler reference?

    Neither George Washington nor Thomas Jefferson went to war to keep their slaves. In fact the law of their state restricted them from freeing their slaves.

    Lincoln didn’t use his beliefs as a basis for oppressing black people through the law.

    So if people are offended by the gay statues in NYC, they should just topple them? The welfare office represents oppression, so we should do some demolition, right? This monument could have ended up in a museum. I only hope there is enough video evidence to convict these vandals.

    Ah, so now the goalposts move and tearing down public property is not “is, and will always be illegal”.

    So Obama, a guy who made a living out of droning children to death...you fully support Republicans tearing a statue of him down if one is to erect?

    The Boston Tea Party was anarchism now?

    Why didn’t they petition and the government and wait like Americans?

    Hmm... Well. let's list them then. First. The decision to stop enforcing immigration law. Specifically, the material support for, and the enablement of human trafficking in the US. We have slavery here, mr Obama enabled and allowed it to flourish. Obama attempts to nationalize key component services, ie the power grid using his executive policy as fiat over legislative effort. Sounds like Tyranny to me.

    Obama purposefully droned children and “made a living out of it”?

    This isn't the boston tea party. This is a statue of an American who fought in the civil war. And instead of waiting for the government to remove it, you are supporting Anarchy.

    Alt left radicals think this crazy **** is going to get them a win in 2020

    Obama had two options. Not drone them, or drone them.

    Now man up and answer:

    Do you support people taking it upon themselves to tear down a statue of the civilian killer Obama if one were to erect?

    Yes, or no?

    Crazy fascists break the monuments and burned books.. It's very similar to how the terrorists in Syria destroyed Palmira, the Taliban in Afghanistan destroyed historical monuments.

    Ideological inspirers of modern destroyers monuments.

    It’s a statue to traitors who fought against America in order to keep black people as slaves.

    That’s clearly more worthy of action than some tea.

    So you do support people tearing down statues of killers? Anarchy is your go-to.

    Good to know for the future.
