They say they teach history, but then do stuff like this. The park service is going to get rid of the statue of William Penn...the one that sits at his former house. You can't make this up.

Need more "inclusivity" somehow.

New plans by the National Park Service to renovate Old City’s Welcome Park include removing the centerpiece statue of William Penn permanently, and redesigning the park to highlight Native American history — a move that has angered Pennsylvania’s Republican leadership.

The plan is a major shift considering that the park was built on the site of Penn’s home, the Slate Roof House, and is named for the ship, Welcome, that transported him from England. Penn actually landed first in 1682 near the intersection of the Delaware River and Chester Creek in Chester.


It's not like William Penn is some kind of fire breathing Confederate slaver.

Do you remember the stories of the Taliban, when they overran their country?

One of their first objectives was to completely destroy centuries old artifacts and statues, some thousands of years old.

The current wave of senseless violence we witness going on right in front of our eyes is sadly parallel to those ignorant cave dwellers.

Plans announced Friday call for “an expanded interpretation of the Native American history of Philadelphia” in consultation with indigenous nations of the Haudenosaunee, Delaware Nation, Delaware Tribe of Indians, Shawnee Tribe, and the Eastern Shawnee Tribe of Oklahoma.

Damn injuns.... shoulda wiped 'em all out when we had the chance, eh Dope? All they are is a bunch of whinin' leftist socialist leaches preying on good God-fearing white Americans like Melania and the orange rapist.

Relect Trump and restore sanity to America... send them injuns back to commieland or wherever they came from.

MAGA!

That's frikkin' hilarious, BB. Did you slip and bump yer head on the way over to the Atheist board?

Sensless violence? You must be referring to the Jan 6 attempted insurection by the orange rapists cult?

Shirley you can't be referring to the NPS remodeling a park in consultation with native americas as 'senseless violence'? I mean, you're still able to type, so your not totally impaired from the fall. That means there's hope for you yet, young man.

Keep the faith.
