Organizer of attempt to take down Andrew Jackson statue outside White House arrested: Report

[WashingtonExaminer] Federal law enforcement officials have arrested a man they say organized an attempt to take down a statue of former President Andrew Jackson outside the White House last month, according to a new report.

Jason Charter was arrested at his residence Thursday morning, Fox News reported, citing unnamed law enforcement sources. Charter has been charged with destruction of federal property, the sources said.

"They were very organized," a law enforcement official said. "Charter was on top of the statue and directing people ... they had acid, chisels, straps and a human chain preventing police from getting to the statue."

Last week, four other men were arrested and charged in connection with the June 22 incident, according to the Justice Department.

President Trump has vowed to keep monuments of America's former leaders erect and threatened anyone who attempts to take them down with jail time.

"We are looking at long-term jail sentences for these vandals, hoodlums, anarchists, and agitators. Some people don't like that language, but that's what they are: Bad people. They don't love our country, and they're not taking down our monuments," Trump told reporters last week. "I just want that to be clear."

In other words, the latest version of the Broken Window Theory: those who attack public statuary, if not stopped at this stage, will proceed to more desperate attacks on civic life.

#1 Releasing those rioters from the inauguration certainly taught the barbarians to behave in the future, not. Big show. Now prosecute or shut the f* up.

#4 It's like the SA in the '20s and early '30s in Germany.

They're protected by the elites who see them as useful muscle.

#7 I'm part Cherokee and I'm not particularly proud of it . They kept slaves and when they were in Oklahoma, they supported the South in the Civil War. They did have sex with their slaves and apparently were not fussy about which sex they banged. Andrew Jackson was captured by them and had a lifetime sore ass about it.

#8 Andrew Jackson was captured by them

No wonder he wasn’t fond of them. It’s truly amazing, the things various Rantburgers know!
