15 of the Best Worst Comments from Robert E Lee Statue Removal in Dallas

Never read the comments they say. But for real, we love to hate them.

Before continuing to read this post you should promptly grab a beer or a stiff cocktail, and a bag of popcorn.

Actually, I think we just won this hand Donna. Looks like you got every 2 in the deck plus a joker, and we got all 4 Aces.

Raising my glass to you Katrina!

#3

I think that is also referred to as White Privilege, which you are clearly embracing by making a statement like this. 

#4

This is a two for one, because Linda just took it upon herself to condemn people to hell, cause you know her and the Lord are bff's and she can do that. And then Lisa, oh Lisa, we are all one race, the human race, and celebrating that fact by removing the statues that memorialize a time where we did not acknowledge this is in fact, not bs.

Will you marry me Chad? 

 

 

#6

Okay I get it now, the Rapture is where God spares the rest of us left on Earth by getting rid of people like you? Also, the statue is being removed so that White Nationalist don't have something to congregate around, are you blind to how Neo-Nazis were the ones who ignited this movement? With their tiki torches?

#7

Ladies and Gentleman, I present you with a generous portion of White Privilege, with a side of Ignorance.

People of any ethnicity are raised to be racist, they aren't born that way, or bred that way. 

#9

So you want to counter acts of peaceful protest that includes a city approved removal of a statue that could encourage the gathering of aggressive White Supremacist with violent acts of unnecessary and personal aggression? 

#10

What???? Are you offended by equal rights, Audrey? Because thats what those statues stand for. The dream that we should all be considered as equals, 'cause we are. 

#11

White people are the reason this statue is being taken down! Because they have chosen these statues as the basis for their Neo-Nazi beliefs is why their removal may not change the past, but it can help shape the minds of the future. The statue represents a reknown general in the Civil War, which was fought by the Confederacy to maintain their Southern way of living, of which was maintained by the practice of slavery. 

#12

You know after Amanda posted this, she was like, "I'm a fucking genius." Sorry to burst your bubble, but the local government paid for this statue to be on city property, and our local government made the decision to take it down. FAIR IS FAIR. 

#13

I'm just going to leave this right here. 

#14

Some of those Americans that were born and raised here, were born and raised here by illegal immigrants trying to escape oppression. I think they would argue this is also their country, and they don't agree with this statement.
