Columbus, Ohio, to remove statue of Christopher Columbus from city hall

Amici,

Well, I see Columbus, Ohio's city government is removing Chris Columbus' statue from in front of city hall, and putting it "in storage"; Columbus State is also removing its statue, too. https://apnews.com/6bf3ac575bee8ac212d6d4dc83525951

A statue of Christopher Columbus will be removed by the largest city that bears the explorer’s name, the Ohio city’s mayor announced Thursday.

The statue located in front of City Hall in Columbus, Ohio, will be removed immediately and placed in storage as monuments to Confederates and other historical figures who repressed or oppressed other people are being dismantled across the country.

“For many people in our community, the statue represents patriarchy, oppression and divisiveness.” Democratic Mayor Andrew Ginther said in a release. “That does not represent our great city, and we will no longer live in the shadow of our ugly past.”

"The statue represents patriarchy, oppression, and divisiveness...", don't these idiots know they're the first to be shot when the Revolution comes (a Left rev or a Right?) Lenin's "useful idiots" are always the first to provide fertilizer for the weeds. Morons. Dolts. Imbeciles. (Somehow those types are to smart for describing Mayor Ginther. Compost? There ya go.)

So, how long before they rename the city? And to what? The name of some rapper? Itsoktocry, or Lilbootycall, or Bootychaaain, or Lil Toenail, or my favorite actual rapper name: Leeky Bandz? Or here are a couple of actual girl names for inner city babies: La'Quishraniqua and Mo'Nique (clever way to spell "Monique"): so La'Quishraniqua Mo'Nique City? Maybe they can find a Black Lesbian Tranny with that name -- kill three "birds" with one stone, as it were? When I worked as a textbook editor, I used to make up outlandish inner-city names for use in the books, and no one ever caught that they were made up.

To all my friends who live in Columbus, I'm sorry to see it. And I'm glad I'm not there. Were I there, I'd dress up in Renaissance elegance and march up and down in front of city hall with a sign, "We Europeans discovered the world; you-all had more class as cannibals" or something similar. Maybe: "We Europeans should have left you in the jungle eating each other." Something. Such stupidity as displayed by the Columbus city council and mayor just begs for the nastiest, snarkiest reaction. Of course, I'd need quite a few body guards.

What this is really about is to remove all White accomplishments, all White heroes, and the foundation of the distinctiveness of Western Civ. Iconoclasm is always about erasure, oblivion, and what the Romans called Damnatio memoriae. Columbus is esp a target because he was an not merely an explorer and "adventure capitalist" but a crusader as well, wanting to bring the Catholic Faith to the Indies even before the Jesuits were founded. And of course the Church today would rather die itself than defend the man.

Archbishop Viganò is right in what he wrote Trump. https://www.lifesitenews.com/opinion/archbishop-viganos-powerful-letter-to-president-trump-eternal-struggle-between-good-and-evil-playing-out-right-now John Zmirak has an excellent column on the Church's decompostion here at Human Events. JZ doesn't mince words.

Historically, a little less than 34 years after Columbus discovered America, the Battle of Mohács was engaged on August 29, 1526, and Hungary lost that battle to the Turks.

Somehow I don't think it will take 34 years to loose Columbus, Ohio, to the mob.

I've never ate there and I now never will. There's stupid, profound stupidity, and something beyond that for which there are no words. The Chick-fil-A guy is the definition of that.
