Paint throwing is juvenile and ineffective.

The tar and feathers in AZ were very creative. All these statues and monuments to traitors need to go.

I would prefer thermite.

ā€œThatā€™s just a Western Southern term and Iā€™m very much a Western Southern man. You know, I wear a coat hood. You know, I dress Western Southern. And, you know, Iā€™m the cowboy Klansman of the Capitol.ā€

Fixed it for ya.

So much for him pretending that this is about statues and ā€œhistoryā€ ā€¦ he rather pulled the ā€˜figurativeā€™ sheet off that myth with a reminder/threat rooted in racism by invoking terrorism via lynching.

Republicans like this in the Missouri state legislature and the people who vote for guys like the ā€œcowboy of the Capitolā€ - reasons why Trump came to Missouri to talk about his tax reform ā€œplanā€ (which is not a plan, just talking points - but, what difference does that make).

Maybe it is time to re-fight the Civil War. The result would be the same. And in a lot less time.

Should we tell him that history is also found in books and even the intertubes?

Iā€™m very much an Eastern man, and we use terms such as ā€œFuck you. Keep your idiot mouth shut, you racist piece of shit. And you coat looks stupid and nobody but a child refers to himself as a ā€˜cowboy.ā€™ā€

Sorry about that. I suspected when we started renormalizing racist violence that it would become problematic.

State Rep. Warren Loveā€™s desperately walking back his grotesque statement is pitiful. His last name should be changed from ā€œLoveā€ to ā€œHateful.ā€
