    I will be introducing a bill to remove Confederate statues from the US Capitol building. This is just one step. We have much work to do.

        Um, while you're at it, is there any chance you'll be introducing a bill to remove abortion clinics from black neighborhoods? Never mind.

        Eliminating statues does not eliminate sin from our hearts, or sins from the past.

        No, but it does help a politically motivated democrat put a notch in his belt as he postures for a presidential run in 2020.

        Imagine how absurd it would be to erect a memorial to Bin Laden in the middle of Ground Zero to "preserve history" that would be offensive!

        You are being ridiculous. Bin Laden is not & never was a citizen of United States and doesn not represent USA whatsoever.
