    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/Y0wi7LD

        Now that sexual harassment is a mortal sin, we'll have to melt statues of ML King. JFK, G Washington and T Jefferson are out as well.

        Leave it up. Maybe add an information sign his flaws are pointed out, so that people see both sides.

        we have a statue of a guy who help make hydro affordable many years ago. Prices have skyrocketed since then and it is a huge issue. way overpriced for many people. but he is still there.

        Second the motion! “...It would be good to develop a category of people whom we celebrate while also viewing them as they are, or were—namely, as complicated and imperfect—and to find ways to amend (rather than topple) monuments to people like Schurz.”

        You leave them all up, What’s that quote, those who cannot learn from history are doomed to repeat it? It’s like they want to repeat the darkest part of our history
