        Me personally, I think these statues are important because we can teach people how dark America used to be and how far we have come. Still some work to do tho.

        Nobody is paying attention or trying to learn from the historical reminders. If they did, we would be much better off right now in our society toward each other racially. Tear them down.

        Erasing our history like it never happened??? How do we learn from our past whether it's good or bad by trying to eliminate it.

        I think I would be more offended by the human waste, the used hypodermic needles, & the tent cities that the homeless have propped up in the parks & sidewalks on San Francrappos streets.

        They can take all that petrified poop & build a new statue.....as a true symbol of 21st century San Francrappo

        Oh for the love of God. Don’t know the significance of this statue nor do I care. This world is becoming more offended and delicate by the hour. I’ll assume, like most other complaints, that it’s never been an issue before...all of a sudden it is now.

        Shawn this is the future of your party. Getting more sensitive as the months go on. Forget the history significance of the statues but let’s concentrate on the negative and make sure no one is offended. Instead of using it as a learning experience, let’s wipe it out.

        Agreed, but it would be a mistake to assume I’m liberal. In some areas, yes. This is not one of those areas.

        Quit painting me with a broad stroke then...I’m utterly offended. All paintbrushes should now be banned as a retail product so I can become unoffended.
