    'Racist fish': Famous statue of the Little Mermaid in Copenhagen harbor has been vandalized

    Why do you assume the vandalized text is a political statement?

    You realize this happened in another country, and that you're putting your US partisan spin on it, right?

          You used to debate YECs. You probably go to church with them. You already know there people are who are weapons-grade stupid.

              Just having read briefly about it, it seems like the black community used this song instead of the actual anthem as an act of protest during the early twentieth century at a time when segregation made them second class citizens.

                That is interesting. It’s a great song regardless.

                  Seer, I have in all discussions about vandalism on this forum condemned the violence.

                            I didn't find the joke funny. I've stated multiple times that I don't support vandalism against artworks.

                              Did those principles and freedoms include the black population? Did they not remain slaves?

                              If you truly value the founding principles then your outrage should be directed at Trumps destruction of executive oversight rather than the black national anthem.

                                Are they slaves today? We certainly did not always apply those principles universally, but that is not the fault of the ideals themselves. But again I know of no better principles to live by, do you - We hold these truths to be self-evident...
