Just wait, the name Oklahoma will be deemed racist itself once these morons figure out what it means.

That's true because it is obvious they weren't taught about it in school.

Any chance of reasonable folks joining the counter protest group is out the window.

Our old buddy Timothy Harper, of open carry "audit" fame, who is still facing charges for carrying into an unauthorized place, and who got his hearing postponed for "PTSD treatment" is apparently involved...

That's not a good look.

Doesn't Harper have court stipulations to stay away from those type events?

Anyone catch the interview on News 9 with the "protest" organizer? She's claiming that 98% of Natives in Oklahoma find the monument racist and offensive.

We can't get 98% of people to agree that the sky is blue or that it's hot.

Looks like the artist must be in the 2%:

All sculptures are very oversized (about 150% larger than real), and all are created by renowned sculptor Paul Moore, above. Moore was born in Oklahoma City in 1957 and is a member of the Creek (Muscogee) Nation, Sweet Potato Clan, even though his white great-grandfather participated in the Land Run. For much much more about the artist, click here.

CNN must have taken that poll for her.

It appears that some got to it last night. Painting on part of it.

Well as long as THEY feel better.

The style of “artwork” doesn’t seem to be indigenous people style...
