When all of the statues are down, what will all of you upstanding members of society blame all of the killing of each other on?


The street names can go too



Along with the tourist dollars.

These statues should be considered a historical structure and protected cultural resource. I've seen developments get stopped for much less significant cultural resources. I haven't really followed this story, but what are the plans for where they will be moved?

Some of them are listed on the National Register of Historic Places (like the R.E. Lee statue).

The ones listed on the NRoHP can't just be moved because some dumbass mayor thinks it's a good idea. That shite is at the federal level.
