Jake Day obviously has a mental illness if he thinks this is something to be proud of!

Dr. Mark Edney, see what your RINO contribution did to ensure that this mental midget got elected over a Republican.

Mark Edney was elected as a member of the Wicomico County Republican Central Committee who was tasked to ensure that Republicans were elected, not Democrat Socialists like Jake Day. Never ever vote for Mark Edney again!

James Yamakawa and Amber Green. Surprise, Surprise! The two biggest anti-white racists in Salisbury.

Matthew Williams worked as a laborer in the factory, but also did odd jobs for the Elliot family. According to known accounts, the Elliot family were "quite fond of Williams, and he of them".

The official story goes that Matthew Williams went to his employers' office, and the two began arguing over wages. At some point in the argument, Matthew Williams shot Daniel Elliot, his boss!

Now HOMO Jake Day wants the taxpayers to build a monument to memorialize a black thug who murdered a white man, his own boss. A white man that was kind enough to give this black thug a job! Wake up, people!!

ARe their any Elliot descendants out there that are pissed off about this??

The headline should read “Jake Day and The left memorialize heathen murderers that got their due justice a little sooner than most.”
The very reason our city officials, law enforcement and residents didn’t complain when it happened was because everyone knew they were guilty of racist murders. There were no voices of descent then, only rumors started by 19th century grapevine trolls.
There was no racism towards or conspiracy against blacks, just a fed up electorate of concerned citizens determined not to let the murderers off.

Is this true?

February 20, 2020 at 8:37 PM Boo friggin hoo. The truth can be harsh sometimes.

What saddens me is that the citizens had the power to stop this and did not .

Jake is pandering to the freaks and geeks because he can get a handful of them to vote and stay in office. 92% of you did not bother to vote and this is the result.

Wasted tax dollars under the guise of inclusion are simply being used as campaign funds. Rainbow side walks? campaigning. Freak parades, campaigning. Worthless murals, campaigning.

For the next 4 years, your tax money will be wasted as he uses it to campaign his way up the ladder.

No one gives a rats ass about any monument. No one even knew about the generals plaque until "I hate whitey" Yamakawa brought it up, and the same thing will happen with this waste of $$$.

Your tax dollars, are now Jake's campaign funds. And he has a clowncil full of idiots that are lappin up the koolaid and rubber stamping his ignorance with glee.

Thats what really sad.

With that video, Jake Day showed he can pander with the very best Democrats. Now the question is, if it's learned that it was a black responsible for the racist graffiti found at the university, as many of the people responsible for these types of incidents on college campuses turn out to be, will Day make a sequel saying that minorities that wreak havoc and create panic by perpetrating a hoax of racism can leave with the others he mentioned?

Plenty of WHITES got lynched too , alot more than Black > Fact

Listening to all the people who had negative comments to make about Williams vs. Elliot. I wasn't there when it happened but I do know for a fact after everything was said and done, Williams son or his son-in-law admitted to the killing not Elliot. Another thing I know for a fact is that one of the people involved in the lynching had the remains of the man's genitals on his mantel shelf as a memorial. What do you have to say about this? As I said, I know what I am talking about because I seen it with my own two eyes as well as my siblings. Someone mentioned the rainbow sidewalk. Who did that? The three top government officials claimed when they found out who was involved they would be prosecuted to the fullest but were they? I know all of you will never accept black people because you were raised in an era that white is superior but I have news for you all. Each and everyone of us are made in the image of GOD and He is not a respector of persons.

Put back the monument to a civil war soldier here you racist, biast, phonies. Everyone of you in this photo needs to rethink the racist path Jake is leading you down he don't care about those that died saving our country, just looking back and trying to save history to agree with racism. We all bleed red not just black people, we are Americans too and you all are traitors to this city and country.

10:41 your story doesn't make sense, If it was the son/son-in-law then why didn't they lynch him ???? Did they just decided that that black guy was OK, and the other should die??? Yes you were not there and yes lynching is wrong, but given the amount of history we are starting to change/erase these days it is not proper to memorialize something without the truth.

If there is no way to know, then we should not put up memorialize to it! Agreed?

Ask yourself what exactly is this going to accomplish, its not going to heal anything or stop racism.

Memorialize something that brings people together, not tears them apart..

Tell me this makes sense ?

What about a monument for the white people who gave their lives to free blacks from slavery. Remind YOURSELVES that the first slave was owned by a BLACK man. Accept some responsibility and stop blaming everyone else for your problems.
