Washington, DC took the long-awaited, long-awaited step of breaking down the black Lives Matter Street The mural held Also The long-awaited Black Lives Matter Plaza,” Just a few hundred feet from the White House. I'm glad to see it goes, and not just because that flashy yellow paint was the second-successful eyelash in our country's capital (After the HHS Building)).
Our cities and local governments However, you need to go further. It's time to completely drive away the demons of 2020. all Monuments to Floyd in our country and BLM and Restores the destroyed one by name.
At this time, the public statues honor George Floyd at Union Square in Newark, New Jersey and New York City. Minneapolis gave the name the way Floyd died in his honor. Dozens of murals and fewer monuments dotted country.

Public statues should honor the great individual, great cause, or at least the heritage of a country or a particular community. None of these statues honoring George Floyd. Floyd himself lived there sada waste of drugs, violence and crime. He died of tension resisting arrest during a deadly cocktail of fentanyl and meth. He was not a hero. He is a tragedy and we should not immortalize tragedy with bronze. (Charlie Kirk: Shut up on egg prices – Trump is saving millions of consumers)
The “cause” that George Floyd gives honor is one of the most destructive and harmful things in American history. “Black Life Matter” Never protected Black lives – in fact, it has destroyed thousands. The BLM national anthem abolished the police, abolished the law, and abolished the United States. The movement was established in Proofable lies American police are systematically racist and killing black Americans because of their skin color.
The main achievement of BLM was the worst wave of urban destruction since the 1960s. Its main heritage is 36.7% infold in Murder rates in America from 2019 to 2021. It's a much larger increase in American history. It literally represents the deaths of thousands It should have never beenhappenEdited. BLM killed more Americans More than the combined wars between Iraq and Afghanistan. All George Floyd statues, all Blm Streets and squares and murals are the middle finger of an American who saw the city burning, businesses being plundered, and neighbors living in terror in chaos. These monuments do not honor justice. They are trophies for disorder.
Meanwhile, countless monuments and markers that should still be present in America are missing. 2020, Statue of Abraham Lincoln, Theodore Roosevelt, George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, and even the unnamed American pioneers, were destroyed, destroyed or removed by lawmakers before the mob reached them. Many people were not repaired or returned. The name was washed from the building and the graves were tainted in the cemetery.
None of these helped “heal” America. It attacked American unity, And it hurt our country. What they wanted was a full reset of the entire American system, a year zero. Everything they did in 2020 was still seen as one step towards a major revolution. (Charlie Kirk: President Trump's shock and way strategy is a way to overwhelm the left)
The frenzy of 2020 has passed, but those scars are still scattered throughout America. What should be there is gone, but the monument of this terrifying period still looms like a monument to post-Soviet Russia's communism. It's time to change that. Removes Floyd's statue, paints on top of the mural, and recovers what he lost five years ago.
You have the authority to remove most of these public devastations Local residents And they were elected Official, But if that could happen in Washington, DC, then there is hope throughout the country. 2020 was one of the lowest moments in American history. It would be better to have it blotted.
