I'm guessing these idiots have no idea what an abolitionist is. The amount of stupidity astounds me.

I can't believe people are doing this, I am angered by the death of George Floyd, but this stupidity is making me angrier

riots and lootings are huge bouts of stupidity that should not be forgiven let alone praised.

YES

did that actually happen

The photo is not, but it was vandalized and there is a movement to take it down. I used the photo for effect.

alright, because i heard there were police guarding the monument and just wanted to make sure i was remembering correctly.

This one is real.

it's not as bad as defacing the actual lincoln

They're still defacing the monument, which contradicts their supposed message.

imgflip.com/i/4505bt look up Matthias Baldwin, I am from Philly and they did this to him wtf

yes but not as bad

What's worse, in my opinion, is this. This is the memorial to the Civil War 54th regiment, a regiment comprised entirely of black volunteers.

Wait what?

By today's standards Lincoln would be a huge racist.

Racism is racism, no matter what date it was. But today everything is racism so the word and meaning just doesn't have the same effect it used to.

You sir are correct.
