        We need to learn from our history. Removing statues doesn't change the history, let them stand as a reminder to not repeat.

        No, you take them out of public parks and put them in a history museum. Parks are for statues we celebrate.

        They should not take them down as a part of the history of the South. It brings about the kind of extreme behaviour we have just witnessed

        No - hatred and bigotry brings out that behavior. Stop making excuses for their racist behavior.

        When you visit historical places the statues and monuments are for learning and remembering. Lee lost. Don't eraser history.

        These are Trump's terrorists groups, he has emboldened them with all his dog whistles. The president's a national security threat to the US.

        Most of those statues were erected in the 50's and 60's in response to desegregation. It's All about hate.

        History is something to be studied and learned from. You can't change history by removing works of art.

        I reject protest with swastikas, KKK banners, and automatic weapons, but I think purging of Confederate symbols is not well thought out....

        No, that's what the civil war was about, state discrimination against Americans was not ok then and it's not ok now. #Charolettesville

        Of course, according to Sessions, this is a states rights issue - but abortion and marijuana legalization are not. Why would that be?
