    I am conservative politcally so I was/am a never-trumper, but, I really want to be fair.

    So let's look at the other side. One of the "hero's" who put a noose around a confederate statue and helped pull it to the ground is named Takiya Thompson, a member of the World Workers Party.

    Takiya, you rail against some farmer who fought for his home state in a war he probably didn't understand while being a member of THAT PARTY!!!!

    You are a communist.

    You are a member of a party that murdered 20 to 30 million of its own people back in the 50's in the USSR.

    You are a member of a party that tortured and murdered tens of thousands of Cubans.

    You are a member of a party that murdered millions of Eastern Europeans.

    You are a member of a party that opened the killing fields in Cambodia.

    I could go on and on...

    So Takiya, before you go knocking down any more statues, look in the mirror. That man symbolized in that statue you knocked over is a saint compared to the party you represent.

    Seriously, as much as you dishearten me, I will pray for you Takiya Thompson. I hope the Lord convicts your heart.

    Communism, good stuff, managed to kill more people the past 100 years than the previous 19 centuries combined.

    German Nazis-17,000,000
    Chinese Nationalists-10,214,000
    Japanese militarists-5,890,000
    China(Mao Soviets 1923-49)-3,466,000
    Cambodia-2,035,000
    Turkey-1,883,000
    Vietnam-1,670,000(most after the war by communist)
    North Korea-1,663,000
    Poland-1,585,000

    Despite all the evidence of the great evil that communism is, some people still follow that madness. Someone once said: "One death is a tragedy, millions of death's a mere statistic" or something to that effect.

    Thank you for that list. I hadn't seen it and was only estimating in the OP.

    I don't think most people realize just how demonic communism is. It truly illustrates the depravity of humankind without the guiding hand of our Lord.

    Well, the Turks just named a city park in Ankara after Fidel Castro, the Cuban Stalin, who enjoyed the best of everything all his life and especially disliked Afro-Cubans for racial reasons, as does his brother Raul.
