    We are in a moment of binary attitudes toward people who rise to the level of being enshrined in statuary; either they are paragons or they have to go. But what do we do with the monuments of forebears who fall somewhere in between?http://nyer.cm/mAQE3BV

        If these figures fall somewhere in between, it might be best to leave them alone. Not one of these monuments to these historical figures are icons of saints. Not one of them were perfect; each man & woman had a flaw. So should we just tear them all down? I think not.

        Or imagine if General Grant, accused of insensitive behavior, resigned—and General McClellan was put back in charge of the Union Army. Oops!

        They're like hieroglyphs: we don't wipe them away, do we? They teach us things about the world before us. Someday (maybe in the not-too-distant future, if we're not careful!), some form of life will come to this earth and these monuments will teach them about our history.

        Rip every one down. Anyone who is famous offended someone along the way. No room for that!

        Depends whether the opinion is from someone who demands purity or practicality
