She needs to change her middle/maiden name as well.

Jackson is the same as Stonewall Jackson.

 :whistle:

Get her to change her 1st name to Longstreet

Because one part was a direct quote and the other was unattributed to anyone specific.  Both set terrible precedents.  Releasing statements like that will only embolden groups to show up in sufficient numbers that will cause officials to back down in the interest of 'public safety.'  That may very well lead to something much more serious than the destruction of property. Over the weekend, that stance contributed to the death of one and injury of many.  The Baltimore incident was summed up well by a Maryland professor.

"To say, 'Overwhelmingly, the demonstrations were peaceful and there was only one night of rioting,' is like saying, 'Right up until Lincoln got shot he had a great time at the play,' said Todd Eberly, an associate professor of political science at St. Mary's College of Maryland. "No one is focused on what happened before the rioting. The key is what happened once it became clear that the situation was out of control."
I understand your comment now.  Still, I think at least officials seem to be interested in the wild parties having some accountability, which was certainly not the case in Baltimore.

I've referred to her as "Stuart Jackson Lee" in the past.

Give it a decade...maybe less and you'll see the Leftist idiots doing that to statues of Washington, Hamilton, Franklin etc.

   Not trying to jack the thread but the @edpc comment brought up a rather interesting paradox (for me anyway).



Others have already explained the difference. Let me just add , when Lincoln said "And mallace towards none", that shuts the door on scenes like this being played out here. Or so he hoped and prayed.

No Senator McCain, Governor Romney, they are also doing wrongs.

"Defying hate" by tossing excrement and using homemade flamethrowers on them is perfectly dandy to the esteemed Senator from Arizona (and Mitt), it would seem.

Why is it so difficult for people in McCain's position to say it is never acceptable to return hate for hate? Did his mommy not teach him two wrongs don't make a right?

McCain and ilk are for whichever side empowers government.
