Emily G added,
Those folks are standing before our free speech wall with "Confederate History Matters" signs. Protected, but tasteless.
Our city counselor was caught making misogynistic and homophobic statements on Twitter a few years ago. I can't condone this.
But it's no accident that the "Confederate History Matters" folks are targeting specifically him for voting to remove the statue.
The statue in question is in our major park downtown--Lee Park. It's awkward to have celebrations like Pride in its shadow.pic.twitter.com/CQ72Nap3Lw
