Just when you thought the young couldn’t get any dumber, comes this whopper from Madison at the University of Wisconsin. They want to Abraham Lincoln statue pulled down because apparently, in their little, indoctrinated heads, Lincoln was “anti-black” or something. Yes, the same Abraham Lincoln who freed the slaves and fought and beat the confederacy, he’s no longer acceptable to the dumb youth. Apparently Abraham Lincoln’s statue at Bascom Hall on campus is white supremacy or something.

Some students at the University of Wisconsin are demanding a statue on campus of former President Abraham Lincoln be taken down.
Nalah McWhorter, the president of the Wisconsin Black Student Union said that just because Lincoln opposed slavery, doesn’t mean he supported equal rights for African Americans.
“He was very publicly anti-Black,” she said, according to Channel 3000. “Just because he was anti-slavery doesn’t mean he was pro-Black. He said a lot in his presidential campaigns. His fourth presidential campaign speech, he said that he believes there should be an inferior and superior, and he believes white people should be the superior race.”
University Chancellor Becky Blank said she believes the statue of Lincoln should remain on campus.
“The university continues to support the Abraham Lincoln statue on our campus. Like those of all presidents, Lincoln’s legacy is complex and contains actions which, 150 years later, appear flawed,” Blank said in a statement. “However, when the totality of his tenure is considered, Lincoln is widely acknowledged as one of our greatest presidents, having issued the Emancipation Proclamation, persuaded Congress to adopt the 13th Amendment ending slavery and perserved the Union during the Civil War.”
