Arkansas: tree honoring 1919 Elaine Massacre victims cut down

[impuretrash]

The democrats ran Alabama in 1919

Yes, before the parties swapped sides.

Old timey democrats believed in many of the same ideas that animate the party today.

Such as, brainwashed functional moron? Who told you this crap by the way?

Whos idea was public housing? Which party opposed it and why?

 

[francoHFW]

Tommy, you struck a racist nerve there somewhere.

He lives in a country 95% white, his country is as bigoted as any country. No diversity, they have attack whites who aren’t like them. He hates Englanders because they aren’t like him. I can’t figure out how he fools so many, he hasn’t fooled me one bit.

Only 3 million and they have a race issue. .06% blacks in his country and they can’t seem to handle the problem. Brexit 'major influence' in racism rise

He needs to fix his own country however he chooses not to.

The rise is due to right-wing morons brainwashed over brexit and here in the United States. The only spike in violence in the United States is against Jews blacks Muslims Dave by right-wing assholes here. Happens after a GOP depression or idiotic Wars, so you get refugees from the Middle East and Afghanistan and from sub-Saharan Africa..... And right-wingers get all excited the racist idiots....

FDR started that and the Republicans were against it of course. To save money in taxes that's all they care about.... The people who run the GOP and the propaganda machine.... Not you poor chumps LOL

 

[progressive hunter]

how so???

they were anti constitution communist then and anti constitution communist now..

Not how I see it all---
Communist? What part of Communism did they espouse? Hatred for the bourgeoisie? How attentive to the dialectic were they?
Technically, they..mostly FDR, introduced some Socialist elements into our Govt. I think socialism is like salt..a little is good..a lot spoils everything.
Are we going that way? Maybe--maybe not.

How does the fact that they tried...a little...to do something for the good of the little guy--Anti-Constitution? You meant to say, Anti-my view-Constitution, right?

the constitution is very clear that its not the job of the feds to do anything for the little guy, and by doing it had to steal from the big/other guys like me,,,


it seems you know nothing about the origins of the american progressive movement or their goals and objectives

Or....I know a fair amount an reject your characterizations?

Anyway..this one has been settled for while now...your side lost. Regardless of who is President or which political part holds sway. The very fabric of our culture has rejected laissez-faire capitalism. The Social safety net is here to stay. Ayn Rand is dead..and she took Adam Smith with her...LOL!

Just pay your taxes and whine like the rest of us.

my side didnt lose , the constitution and the country are losing,,,

and you reject my view but then confirm it by spouting communist diatribe,,,

just to let you know,, the fight isnt over

Said the trout..shortly before dinner.

be careful that trout doesnt end up being a shark,,,


but am glad you should you lied and I was right that progs are anti constitution commies,,,,

Segregated public housing. Precursor to modern day ghettos.

Public Housing Projects were a failure. If the libs want to take credit, they can be my guest. Crime infested, urine soaked apartment houses, most of them ended up being demolished including the one that the Tremendous Leon Spinks grew up at in St. Louis. The Carter, taken over by Wesley Snipes for his crack trade is another sterling example of the FDR Public Housing program

Arkansas: tree honoring 1919 Elaine Massacre victims cut down

Officials are investigating after someone cut down a willow tree that was planted earlier this year to honor the victims of the 1919 Elaine Massacre in eastern Arkansas.

The willow was planted in April in remembrance of the victims of the massacre, one of the largest racial mass killings in US history.

It occurred during the summer of 1919, when hundreds of African Americans died across the country, at the hands of white mob violence during what came to be known as the “Red Summer”.

Estimates of how many African Americans were killed in Elaine range from the low hundreds to more than 800, which would make it the deadliest such massacre in US history. Mass graves are thought to be situated around the town.

Events are planned for later next month to mark the 100th anniversary of the massacre. An Elaine Massacre Memorial will be unveiled, the committee behind it including descendants of those killed and those who carried out the killing.

This is all very sad, Will the President be attending the ceremony ?

Willows are so easy to propagate I hope they have many replacements available.

Good, the racist asshole can take care of his country and once he gets a fucking clue, then tell us how to do it.

Also, Tommy hates Englanders as he has said on this board. There is a race problem between the Welsh and the Englanders. So the bigot Tommy can’t get along with whites or any other color.

 

[Dr Grump]

No, tard. We're well aware of our history. Unlike brainlets such as yourself, we choose not to dwell in it.

Learn the lessons and move forward.

If that be true, you wouldn't have such a fucktard as the Orange Buffoon in the WH today.

There is no English or Welsh race, that's not racism. Lots of people don't like the English, the imperialist smug classist Savage capitalists... LOL the Tories are the worst party in the modern world except for the GOP of course.

Those big towers in black areas didn't work. They learned from them and now they do work better. Of course the Republicans underfunded them and maintenance etcetera all through.....

For years, libs declared that black folks liked to live in big towers. Now we are supposed to believe them with their new solutions? BTW, I've been in low rise projects in my day, and they ain't so great either.

Here's a contemporary liberal tune from the 70's talking about black people loving to live in big towers.

Tell that to the English and the Welsh. They are the ones calling it racism.
English the victims of racism in Wales
Hate is hate, prejudice is prejudice, bigotry is bigotry and is based on ignorance.

You may well have a point there, even in the 70's and 80's. I remember accompanying a honky friend of mine and we visited these guys in the Idi Amin gang who lived in a project in Youngstown. But it really wasn't the fault of the governmental landlord that the hallways smelled of urine.

The Vietnam War and the resultant drug culture has been a mess... Cutting down on investment in infrastructure and our people has not been a solution.

Look.., I'm getting tired of George Soros' little antics. He had that tree planted so that it can be cut down to fuel racial tensions. Why they want to put a cheap little tree as a memorial, instead of an expensive monument? That is a insult to those that has died. Trees doesn't last forever.
