The monument will protect places that are central to the story of Till's life and death at age 14, the acquittal of his white killers and his mother's activism.
Hey milksop, after the ceremony he will go home and hide nuclear secrets in pool houses (what are “pool houses”? Houses with pools?), because that’s his priority. Everything else is just PR.
idk… i actually don’t care about this stuff since there are no repercussions for any action of those in power, I was just quoting the jellyfish above my post. I genuinely didn’t know that Biden is accused of the same thing as Trump.
Yes Biden (and Pence) found classified documents at their homes. There is a serious discussion as to why people in power are allowed to do this. Presumably it is to enrich themselves once out of office. Other than the classified bit this is probably legal.
The difference is Biden (and Pence) turned over the documents when found and cooperated. Trump is in trouble for lying about the documents and covering up having them after signing multiple affidavits that he has no more.
How is it beneficial? They don’t get any money or power out of it. They just memorialize something that needs memorializing and, because it’s federal, taxpayer dollars go to its upkeep to ensure it stays looking good and doesn’t get trashed. There’s also the matter of protection. Considering a sign memorializing Till was shot, federal protection sounds like a good idea to me.
The monument for Emmett Till is very important. Children and Grandchildren of those that did the lynching are still living there.
I thought the president is being paid for his work. Is he not? Then again I wasn’t talking about monetary benefit. The current staff in the White House could have made all this possible without themselves being mentioned or present. But they are being mentioned and are present because it’s beneficial for their careers (that’s how they earn their Dollars and Influence and Power).
68 years later, the US President, uses a heinous crime and a tragedy, for a few more votes.
So Emmett Till should never be honored on a national level?
He should be honored! He should be honored on a national level by the people (the nation).
Not by a party or a career politician.
Hey dipwad, we the people elected him.
Edit: specifically he was elected in hopes of doing things like this instead of hiding nuclear secrets in pool houses. It’s a matter of priorities.

Is he being charged for this? I…thought that was Trump…

Then maybe just stop talking.
Maybe.
Got it, so you admit you don’t know what’s actually going on, but you comment on it as if you do. Great strategy
I quoted your friend whose comment is above mine, read the whole post. I can quote half your post and comment only on half information too:
No, I don’t!
see?

How do you not know what a pool house is lol
I’m poor. Imagine that.
Okay then, here ya go:
What is a pool house in poor people terms
I’m homeless and I know what a poolhouse is
How exactly do you arrange that on a national level without the president being involved? Especially if you want a permanent memorial?
So you only honor historical events if your president allows it? All your monuments are there because someone in White House allowed it to happen?
Yes, that’s how national monuments work.
That’s quite beneficial for the people in power. So, you as a nation are also very selective when it comes to historical events you want to preserve?

Good to see the losers are wasting their time trolling on reddit instead of bothering the rest of society at least.
Good thing you’re bothered then, and not the rest of society.
I hope you recover from your massive head injury soon.
Lol stay mad bro
