NYC Mayor hunts down offensive plaque

New York's City's Mayor Big deBrothero plans to hunt down any plaque that might be offensive to some. Perhaps he should begin by seeing his dentist!

After that, he can go after the FDR Drive, since Roosevelt imprisoned Japanese-American citizens during the war.

Follow that with the British Consulate, since we fought King George for out freedom.

Washington Square Park would be next, since Washington had slaves.

In a real "piece de resistance", how about ridding the world of those treasonous Tyrannosaurus Rex bones in the Museum of Natural History, since T-Rex would have been the first terrorist, had there been any humans on the planet at the time.

Is there no level to which this clown will not sink?

George Orwell would have been amused... Or maybe not!

Michael Goodwin of the NY Post must have appreciated my "rant", as he published some of my thoughts in Saturday's "editorial" section!

Readers are not taking kindly to Mayor de Blasio’s vow to remove “symbols of hate” from city property. Donald Morris calls him a “clown” and writes: “He should begin at the FDR Drive, since FDR imprisoned Japanese-American citizens during the war, then close the British Consulate since we fought King George for our freedom. Washington Square Park would be next, since Washington had slaves.”

Frances Kahn calls the mayor a “hypocrite” and says: “He can honor Oscar López Rivera, Fidel Castro and his Nicaraguan comrades, but takes umbrage at American historical figures. Statues don’t hate. Plaques don’t demonize. People do.”

And Jim Soviero draws on another totalitarian figure: “Now we have Mayor Mao enforcing his own cultural revolution.”
