        Then place beside them the photos of lynchings and cross burnings, klan in full regalia. If you're proud of that heritage, show it fully.

        Doesn't this mean they have to re-install Jeff Sessions back within state borders?

        I think they should leave them there so everyone will know of America's ugly history. Getting rid of them will not change what happened.

        The monuments Belong in museums with the full story behind each. Not on government property. Terrible.

        Leave them up, or put them in museums. IDC. The point is that some people want to erase history. Removing them completely is a way to do it.

        I believe it's Alabama. Next, it'll be in their Constitution. And, then they'll secede again.
