George
Washington statue is hidden at the MLK rally in Columbia , SC

The annual MLK observance at the state house in Columbia SC had an interesting
twist
this year. The event is held on the north side steps of the
statehouse.
Prominent
at that location is a large bronze statue of George
Washington.
This
year, the NAACP constructed a "box" to conceal the father of our
country
from
view so that participants would not be 'offended' by his
presence.
I
could hardly believe my eyes when I saw this picture of the MLK Day rally in
Columbia , South
Carolina .
This
rally was sponsored by the NAACPand they said that they covered the statue
because they "didn't want to offend anyone". Really? George Washington is the
father of this nation. How is he offensive to
anyone?
Can
you imagine what would happen if we covered the statue of Dr. Martin L. King on
President's Day? or is only the statue of a 'white guy' offensive
??
Of
course, this display of anti-Americanism wasn't covered at all by
the
national
media (surprise, surprise !!), and the local paper in Columbia
only
ran
a short piece on it. It has been covered a little by the blog-world
but
I
think the word needs to get out to the general public that this is what
the
NAACP
is all about...militant and (most definately) racist
