GOOD MORNING AMERICA’S HOMEPAGE:
https://www.goodmorningamerica.com/
this is actually really saddening….
Europeans need to be aware of not perpretating their history
Disgusting. Entitled, Western, adult babies, brainwashed by their teachers at school. London….. Grow the F up, its our history.
By the sound it makes when it hits the ground while the rolling it, that must mean it’s hollow. I never knew that statues could be hollow, I always thought that they were just, metal, to the core,

Right, now pull down the statue of Mandela
I really hate blm #whiteonlylivematter.
Peace out! ✌ðŸÂ¾
He’s now rolling in the deep lmao
blessed video
Wow. We're angry so let's go and take it out on a statue.
Disgusting behaviour by mindless vandals. Jail every single one them.
Next step, burn all the books. Anyone read 1984?
Now the world is in true danger.
Stupid protests.
Funny no police presence. Almost as if it was planned. Who would have thought eh?
Not often you see a riot without a police presence.
Hm.. A statute of someone from days of slavery. Will the day arise when folks throw the statues of Obama, Hillary & Biden into the nearest river for reviving outdoor slave markets in North Africa by destroying Libya!?
has anyone been prosecuted for this offence?
It is wrong of them to vandalise his statue or take it down in that manner.
I say this as a person who previously supported the actions of this mob but has come to realise the truth.
I would recommend you watch Voltaire Ghosts ' video on the same for further understanding on this matter.
Why are white people protesting a problem that doesn’t affect them
What date did this happen? This was one of the best days of 2020. It is like a holiday for me.
Edit: Sunday June 7.
Slavetrader Monument Tossed into Water Day.
(LOL. Hallelujah. I hope there will be a t.v., car, or furniture sale in his 'honor' next year around June 7.
It will be called "The Great Slavetrader Monument Tossed into Water Day" sale. When you could buy a car at a discount, not an emasculated man, grieving woman, or a molested orphan child.)
Yo wat u doing with dat statue #BLM #r.i.p George Floyd
heheheh… with this logic theese people should kick out Eliz II out and burn Buckingham Palace
the statute shouldn’t have resisted, then maybe they wouldn’t have drowned. ✋ðŸÂ¼😙
So dumb
Was there blood on the statue??
This needs to stop
I’d ashamed of being British
But Y
all this hatred toward people who aren't here anymore is laughable, 100% of this people protesting were never experienced been a slave so why do they feel anything toward a stranger they never met, if you had live as a slave then sure you have the right to feel angry, if have not live that time of slavery then stfu!
Toss it !!!
The bacteria will eat the statue in the water.
Faked like/dislike numbers.
And next week a protest against Ghengis Khan, the week after, tear down the Pyramids
Statues of Lloyd George should be targeted. He is the one who sent the tans to Ireland.
When are we going to talk about the elephant in the room? The biggest slave owner that ever lived. The Muslim prophet Muhammad.
