Bunch o' hipsters went down to Dixie to stir up a hornet's nest, and some of them got stung? /shrugs, I shed no tears for them, got what you were looking for, don't come crying to me after.

Bunch of whities go stirring up shit in the middle East and some justifiably angry Muslims fly planes into buildings in New York.
Is this really the line you want to take Smitty because with that logic we can excuse pretty much any terrorist action ever.

I don't shed no tears for the white race clown car warrior neither, I probably would charge him under the counterterrorism act and deep six him into a federal blacksite, why not? If everybody runs out crying about being the victim, might as well give them something to cry about then.

Lexington's first gay mayor who has big time political ambitions thinks now is a good time to strike!

This is a perfect example of politicizing Charlottesville. We have been re-modeling the Historic Court District anyways. Been going on for over a year. The statues he now wants to remove more immediately because he can get a write up in the Amazon Post and interviewed on CNN.

One is of John C. Breckinridge, a former U.S. vice president whose has a county named after him. It's so ironic. Lexington was built on the slave trade and the use of slave labor in tobacco fields and horse farms. All those blue-bloods still live here and still run the city.

I have lived here for over a decade now and without doubt, this is the least "racially tense" city I have ever been in. I only hope that continues after the Liberals get done making hay.

Lexington, Ky., Mayor Jim Gray doesn’t have to watch footage of the violent protests in Charlottesville over the weekend to know how divisive Confederate monuments can be.

Don't let the media create a false narrative, "there are (ONLY) between 5,000 and 8,000 Klan members" nationwide. https://www.splcenter.org/fighting-hate ... -klux-klan

I never advocated for the United States to put troops in Saudi Arabia in order to defend Kuwait from Iraq, I said that was a very bad idea at the time, which would indeed entail blowback against the United States at some point, and as for terrorism, excusing or not excusing is irrelevant, I don't take moralizing stances when it comes to war, I view it all through the operational lens, moralizing sermons from the hypocrisy pulpit, that ain't my thing.

Look, 20 somethings that buy a V8 Dodge Challenger aren't exactly known for being the most level headed bunch. I would even concede that it was a case of road rage perhaps. But this fucking crying in the MSM about Evil Nazis and Terrorism is blatantly false.

Yeah I would think terrorism is a stretch but only because this attack doesn't appear to be premeditated, if this guy intented to drive into a crowd of people and only killed 1 person then he's even more of a loser than we all think.

MSM gonna MSM :/

Right now there are laws prohibiting moving a stone from these walls. How long before they are torn down?



There are more rock fences here than any place in the USA. In Central Kentucky only 5 -10% of these 19th century rock fences built by Irish Immigrant stonemasons still stand.

These stonemasons passed their craft on to black slaves that became masters of the craft of building rock walls. This is where the term,"slave walls" came about. Since I grew up here in the Bluegrass, this is what I had always thought they were. I had no idea that the walls originated with the Irish immigration to the Bluegrass!

I think anytime we adopt an attitude of "Ah well, fuckit" when a guy intentionally mows down a bunch of civilians we're probably drinking too deeply of the kool-aid. No. You intentionally mow down people because you disagree with their ideology, you got to trial and you partake of your slice of justice pie. Same folks throwing a shit fit over the Republican congressional shooter and BLM sniper have become overnight apologists for vigilante murderers when it's their side finally racking up the kills.
Sad.

I never said don't bring the full force and measure of the law down upon the rabble, on either side, soon as they cross the line; drop the hammer on them, all I said is that the National Security Council is not the proper instrument in this case, quite sure FBI NSAC has all the authorities they need.

Slave labor built the prosperous hemp and tobacco plantations and stock farms of the antebellum Bluegrass. Whites also owned black slaves to cook their food, clean their homes and care for their children.

As Black History Month begins, it is worth noting that from the 1820s until the Civil War, Lexington was one of America's largest slave markets. Geography, demography and economics "put Lexington right in the center of this activity," said Gerald Smith, a University of Kentucky history professor.

When the Civil War began, Lexington had more than 10,000 slaves — almost half the total population — and about 1,700 slave owners.

When future President Abraham Lincoln visited his wife's family in Lexington for three weeks in the fall of 1847, five slaves were sold at Cheapside to settle a judgment that her father, Robert Todd, had won against their owner, John F. Leavy, according to William Townsend's book, Lincoln and the Bluegrass.
