It’s the latest in a string of moves to scrap monuments decried as offensive to Native Americans — coming after the nationwide controversy over statues of Confederate leaders.
The activists in Arcata, Calif., some 280 miles north of San Francisco, wanted the city’s 8½-foot bronze statue of McKinley taken down because they said the 25th president of the United States was a proponent of “settler colonialism” that “savaged, raped and killed,” the Seventh Generation Fund for Indigenous People told The Los Angeles Times.
In February the City Council of the sanctuary city voted 4 to 1 to get rid of the statue.

The Obama statue offends me as a patriotic American!
Destroying history will guarantee that we will repeat it. Good or bad, it must be preserved.
Later it will be the founding fathers, after all, they owned slaves and ordered Indians to me moved and killed.
Welcome the the Masons’ NWO
There are these crazy things called books with history in them
Again, sorry you didn't make the cut 7:53. Stop blaming them, it was your own fault. Now live with it.
I was watching TV when a left wing nut said these monuments are not damaged, melted down or anything. They are placed in storage unharmed. As the jerk was saying this a video was playing pulling a statue to the ground, while the head snapped off. Sad
Our founding fathers are next because they were slave owners like Washington and Jefferson. A communist socialist revolution is in progress. Civil war is coming.
we can only hope. inshallah my brother
