Colin Posted July 17, 2020 Report Share Posted July 17, 2020 My understanding is that graves and statues are reminders of our past. We should be mature enough to take lessons and learning from them, not vilify and hide them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NullVoid Posted July 17, 2020 Report Share Posted July 17, 2020 My understanding is that graves and statues are reminders of our past. We should be mature enough to take lessons and learning from them, not vilify and hide them. Problem is it WAS a target of vandalism so a temporary cover over the name would have been a better compromise than tearing up the whole stone and replacing it anew,Especially since in perhaps 30 years people wont care as much after all there is a finite amount one can gain from this grand standing and virtue signaling its just going to take a few years for them to run out of steam.

NullVoid Posted July 19, 2020 Report Share Posted July 19, 2020 All the tools for retaliation against their actions are all owned by the government thus you can only get a government abuser of rights prosecuted if they are both positively identified and low enough on the totem pole for them to let you. Besides that you only have the option of a foreign state applying diplomatic pressure or a coup but considering they have the most well funded military in the world and even a militarily superior challenge would run out of steam before they sustained notable loses as per attrition warfare Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
