I feel like I'm living in Assbackwardstan. The mayor of New York City is asking a committee to recommend which statues on display should be removed if they are "against the values" of the city.

This includes the great Satan, Christopher Columbus.

Are they going to remove Grant's Tomb? He was a ruthless militarist that directed his troops to massacre hundreds of thousands.

This is getting fucking stupid.

NEW YORK (FOX 5 NEWS) - Monuments linked to the Confederacy aren't the only ones being called into question.

Christopher Columbus has become a polarizing figure in history. So now the statue of the Italian explorer in Columbus Circle might just be on the chopping block.

Columbus discovered America but he was also a ruthless explorer who enslaved and murdered native Americans.

City Council Speaker Melissa Mark-Viverito supports Mayor Bill de Blasio's new task force, or commission, that will make recommendations on what statues and monuments in the city should be removed. She said the task force should take a look at the Columbus statue, which was dedicated in 1892.

De Blasio said the city's commission will look at statues and monuments that may suggest hate, division, racism, anti-Semitism, or have any message that might be against the values of New York City. The task force will conduct a 90-day review and then make recommendations to the mayor as to which statues and monuments should go.

Dr. Libby O'Connell has a Ph.D. in American history and is the chief historian emeritus at the History Channel. She said the Columbus statue should not be taken down. She said Columbus is a complicated historical figure. She said that although he was a ruthless explorer, as many were during his era, he changed the world in a positive way.

"He's not a saint but he's not all bad either," O'Connell said, "because he helped bring about the European discovery of North and South America."

The mayor said he will announce the members of the task force in the near future and then their work will begin.

This all has to stop soon, somehow some way if it doesn't end soon it's going to start another Civil War, and the rocks and takes of the liberals would not be enough against the guns and ammo of the conservatives. These antifa and scared local governments are so deep in destroying the history of this once great nation and if it doesn't end soon it will leave us as a third world country. This was all started to be put in place in the 08-14 time frame and then greatly escalated within the time frame of 14-present and people gotta open their eyes to see the political light behind this. It's the Elite's continuation of their work towards OWG\NWO
