        Leave the statues alone and teach children to love and not the hate. That is where the real edifices of hate are toppled.

        How about none? How about learning from the past instead of erasing it. What next a good old fashion book burning? This is nonsense.

        They were fighting for State's Right's. Against an all powerful hand of government. They lost, end of story? No.

        States' Rights is the reason the south gives because they're too ashamed to admit the real reason was because they wanted to own humans.

        What's the point? Removing statues doesn't remove the hatred and bigotry that persist in America.

        Wouldn't you rather get rid of monuments celebrating racist bigots and show racists in America that there isn't any place for them here?

        1 . No it's AMERICAN history! Hundreds of thousands of union soldiers died to stop slavery and maintain the union.

        Statues aren't American history. Put them in a museum then, but not on public land where people who don't want to see them have to every day
