So protesters want to take down Abraham Lincoln's Emancipation Statue?

Do these even know who Abraham Lincoln even is? Do they know what emancipation even means? These people aren't tearing down statues to end racism. They aren't trying to prove anything. They are only tearing down these statues because they hate the color of the person's skin. They don't care what the person stood for, they don't care if they were against slavery or not, they only want to tear down the statues if person was white. It's almost like a reversed KKK. The very same thing these people protest against they are becoming. And if you think a black person can't be racist then you are wrong. If a black hates another person just because their skin color isn't the same as theirs then they are just racist as a white person who hates a black person just because of their skin color. These people are dangerous, and I believe it will get so bad that they will start targeting, killing, burning people just because they are white. I really believe it's going to get that way, because the Bible says that it will. It will wax worse and worse. If you think it's going to get better down here it won't. One day we are all going to be judged by God. And He's not going to be judging us by the color of our skin. Thank God for putting these words on my heart. I hope someone gets something out of it and God bless.

Great post Morgan.

Any individual claiming to be intellectually well balanced ought to at least avail themselves to all the facts.

How many people pretending to be so balanced have actually exerted their intellect by going to a Black Lives Matter website to learn who they are and what they REALLY support!!!??

There will no question why the many peace and freedom loving African/Americans don’t want any part of the abortion promoting and social radicalism of BLM !!

I am very surprised the Klan has kept quiet so far. Do not expect them to stay that way.

That's a very ugly comment, Jayzeee. Very disappointing and un-Christian.

If you have nothing further to say, then maybe you'll take a little time to listen instead. :)



Alligator's comment reveals a bitter truth. It does not taste like honey. Don't assume you know anything about me. You know nothing of me.



Hate is opportunistic, as are hate groups. Alligator's comment reveals that a hate group like the KKK finds nourishment in a climate already rich with hate and violence. This has been proven through history and even very recently.



After the Confederacy lost the Civil War, many racists in the south wanted a way to feel better than someone. A former Confederate leader and pledge delegate to the Democratic National Convention named Nathan Bedford Forest provided a way for that to happen by becoming the first grand wizard of the Ku Klux Klan, promising the racists a social position above the newly freed blacks and “justice” for all the so-called wrong the Union Army did. They have laid in waiting for the right conditions in which to flourish, like they did in the late 1920s when the DNC led by Woodrow Wilson refused to denounce them in their platform, leading to the massive marches in what became known as the Klan bake.



At the end of World War I, the Allies saw Germany as the culprit for causing the war. In their collective hatred, they ground Germany under their heels, splitting up the country and imposing a debt they couldn’t possibly repay. In the bitterness of their depression, the Nazis found a foothold, by blaming the Allies, and then later the Jews for all their woes. They promised Germans their own form of “justice,” that they’d never hang their heads in shame again and that instead they’d bring the surrounding countries to their knees.



Black Lives Matter has taken advantage of recent events to push for a surge in hatred toward white people regardless of whether the white people they aim their hatred at are responsible for any kind of racism present OR past. They're taking advantage of the idle hands of people who are out of work and going stir crazy due to the Novel Coronavirus to stir up unrest and hatred at every turn. What I find sad is that the Black community allows itself to be manipulated this way. We need more "uppity" (i.e. independent) blacks who won't allow their emotions to be controlled so easily.



Alligator's comment was a grim prediction. I pray she's wrong about it, but it's not hard to see the path. With all the wanton destruction happening over an incident that has no real proof that it was racially motivated in the first place, it may follow that frustrations or injuries done to people who otherwise have no racist bent and had nothing to do with the event with George Floyd might begin to trigger some racist feelings. And if history is any indication the Klan waits for the chance to promise them some twisted form of "justice" and to tell them who to hate.



Hate doesn't stop hate. It only gives birth to more of it. Hate from BLM will only lead to more hate from those that they target.



It's not too late, though, Jayzeee. This mess started with individuals, and it can be stopped by individuals. The Bible says that God so loved THE WORLD that He gave His only Son for the forgiveness of sins. Not just blacks, not just whites, or any other color. It was His love for ALL OF US. This identity politics garbage HAS TO STOP. When we are committed to our faith and our identity as covenant brothers and sisters through Christ, there is no room for tribalism or identity politics. When we move away from our identity in Christ, that's when these ideological and racial divides form. Don't let those divisions become chasms. Please don't let yourself fall into them. It can only take you farther from God.
