        Hate will still continue. Let's stop blaming these statues for what's happening in our country.

        Let's stop trying to glorify idols that are symbols of hate, and educate those willing to learn about peace at the same time.

        You can't educate people when they are unwilling to learn. People have already been taught yet remain ignorant by blaming inanimate statues.

        I guess a statue of a middle finger would be just the same,it's not the bronze, it's what it symbolizes. A swastika would be another example

        Yes. The US should have statues celebrating sex everywhere. Every city should have statues of naked people having sex in all positions.

        Gay sex, orgies, maybe even statues of people sacrificing virgins to Baal. Nothing should be censored.

        It's not about the statues and it's part of history. These hate groups took something and made it part of there circle.

        The Confederacy, made up of treasonous citizens against our nation! These statues were put up during Jim Crow & Civil Rights movement!
