        Memorials to the soldiers who died in a tragic time at the place where it happened. Monuments to the dead. They should stay. Teaching peace.

        Agree with Gettysburg's decision this is a hallowed battleground not a town square.

        The park honors those who fought there regardless of which side they fought for. I hate racism but I don't mind seeing sculptures of rebels

        The battlefield statues serve a different purpose in my mind.

        This is more of a museum, not a public square. This is educational and not a place for the alt-right to go to display their bigotry,

        This is a museum. The battlefield is kept as a museum would. It is not a public square. No problem with keeping these things in museums.

        It is a civil war themed park. That's where these type of statues belong if anywhere. Not in general public places.

        And they belong on that battlefield because they represent the historical reality...they don't belong in some City Park as a point of pride.
