Antifa Group Plans Nationwide 'Deface Columbus Day' Actions for Monday

This Pajamas Media article was written by Ms Debra Heine, 6 October 2017.

Violent left-wing anarchists have announced a nationwide campaign to deface Christopher Columbus statues this coming Monday.

Five Christopher Columbus statues have already been vandalized in New York City in recent weeks, according to Far Left Watch. In one case last month, vandals defaced a "larger-than-life" statue of Columbus in Central Park, leaving blood-red paint on his hands, and scrawled, "Hate will not be tolerated" and “#SomethingsComing” on its pedestal.

What is coming appears to be a coordinated campaign to destroy monuments all across the country on Columbus Day.

The NYC-based antifa group Revolutionary Abolitionist Movement (RAM) made the announcement on Thursday, September 21, calling on antifa groups nationwide to “decorate” their neighborhoods.

If you are scratching your head, go back to Marxist revolutionary Ernesto "Che" Guevara and his intellectual explainer, the French intellectual and government official Régis Debray.

They gave us the foco theory of revolution.  This is the idea that the revolutionary cells, usually engaged in guerrilla warfare, provide a focus for the grievances of the masses.  It is also known as focalism (foquismo [foˈkizmo]).

Actually, the majority of folks in the US like Christopher Columbus.

I would like to know what the world would be like if King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella had not funded Christopher Columbus' trip?
