        As a Gen Xer born and raised in California, it is about time. I never understood why monuments to a failed rebellion existed to begin with.

        Exactly! Nowhere in the civilised world are the losers of a war glorified with public monuments. Add to that these being traitors n racists.

        I don't get the sudden outrage. If you don't like a statue don't go visit it.

        Many are in front of government buildings. Hence putting them in museums with context.

        That's true. Doesn't mean we need to give it a literal platform for veneration.

        I just feel that the energy and resources could be used to help fight racism in another way. Just my opinion

        I think we need to listen to those who have been affected by the racism that these statues have perpetrated for years.

        A lot of former confederates moved west after the Civil War. It's a DoC statue dedicated to soldiers - not generals.
