An Alabama mayor is offering to take Confederate-related monuments recently disassembled in New Orleans.

Hanceville Mayor Kenneth Nail wrote to New Orleans Mayor Mitch Landrieu, asking him to consider donating the monuments for display in Veterans Memorial Park in Hanceville.

The town of about 3,250 people is about 40 miles north of Birmingham. Nail tells The Cullman Times he's heard nothing but positive feedback on the idea from Hanceville residents.


quote:

Landrieu's office didn't immediately respond Monday to an emailed request for comment. New Orleans officials have said they will issue a formal request for proposals to host the monuments in "a more appropriate place" than the high-profile spots they once occupied


quote:

Nail said he's only interested in obtaining the monuments if they can be had at little to no cost for his city -- and so far, he hasn't heard back about his letter.

That bitch Landrieu wants nothing more than to see those monuments get destroyed completely. I don't see him giving them up.

Don't be fooled, fellas. He's just trying to trick all of you that are leaving because of the statue deal to relocate to Hanceville. That place is a shithole.

52 acre farm with 3 ponds full of large mouth Bass, 5 great quarter horses to ride, and only a 20 min drive to 300 acres of hardwoods full of white tailed deer. Why yes I would call that living.

If every black was murdered (God forbid), that would still be a small fraction of nola murders:

Huntsville, bout an hour's drive. But why would I want to shop there? Or is your proximity to the nearest whole foods store have anything to do with the prestige of your home town?
