    I don't know. A lot of immigrants worked on Mt. Rushmore though.

    And taking down the statue will end racism, right?

    That's not the point. The point is to have something to constantly bitch about. The Left is a victim culture and can't exist without someone being victimized somewhere for some reason great or small. It's like dealing with fucking reverse vampires.

    There's a confederate memorial on my local court house lawn, it's not dedicated to a specific person, but to the soldiers who died, should that be taken down?

    Ayup. Would you support a monument for those Americans who died fighting on behalf of the British during the Revolutionary War?

    Again, not the same, they were British soldiers, not fellow Americans. Would you support taking grave stones of confederate soldiers and destroying them?

    Plenty of Americans fought on the side of the British, you idiot.
    They were born and raised here. Would you support a monument for them, yes or no?

    I wonder if they'll be trying to pull down the statue of Rocky Balboa next?

    After all his main claim to fame is beating up black men.

    Says the king of neg repping, second only to Emperor Dayton.

    The reason why those confederate monuments are being torn down is because, for the most part, they were erected as a form of racist trolling in the first place.

    Mr.T transcends color boundaries. So technically he's split black guy, Mr. T, Russian guy.

    Philly's been trying to get rid of it for years. It was supposed to be only up for the films, but somehow the studio can't be bothered to get it. There was even a lawsuit about it.

    It's actually Stallone cosplaying while he's between roles, which is increasingly often. You can check it for extra wrinkles over time, or tickle his scrotum. But both will cost you dearly.

    I thought they did end up moving it and that was a line in Rocky Balboa where Paulie told Rocky "Are you still mad because they moved your statue?"

    Fair enough, but I don't see what taking them down will accomplish and the guys in NC. were wrong with their approach.

    Friends I have some good news and bad news to report back on this. The bad news is that Taco del Mar is no longer at that location and therefore @Captain X lied to us. The good news is that it was replaced with a decent looking kebab place called Sinbad Express.
