Why doesn’t Governor Landry relocate the PGT Beauregard statue to Camp Beauregard? He has the authority. The State of LA owns that statue.

Renaming the forts was stupid and nothing more than political pandering. No one gave two shits about the names of forts until leftists said they should be offended by them a few years ago.

That statue is a real, no shite work of art. If you have never seen it its incredible. The detail on the horse and rider is immaculate.

It is an awesome statue. Mitch should be ashamed of himself. If he had done it for some real deep, moral reasons, I may have disagreed with him but respected that, but he did it purely to promote himself politically, and it totally backfired in his face. It wasted police and fire overtime and promoted division in the city. As horrible as Latoya is , I still think Mitch is worse not even to mention what he did to NOPD and Sewerage and Water Board. In my mind he was the worst mayor in New Orleans history

There’s a reason this photo of the late General is never shown in text books.

I thought that PGTB was owned by City Park. The land is owned by the park not New Orleans but that didn't stop Mitch.
Maybe next mayor will let PGTB and REL out of the junkyard.

Let's not forget that PGT Beauregard donated the land to build city park and was instrumental in the education of freed slaves post-war. In any other timeline, and in any other era, the man would be considered a hero for what he did after the Civil War to heal the divide between the races. However, proggies gonna prog.

And City Park is run by the City Park Improvement Agency which technically is a State of Louisiana agency that falls under the control of the Lt. Governor’s office.

Remember when they removed all statues of the past

I was out there watching them take down PGTB. I think MitchTheBitch was buddies with the Director of CP.

When are they going to return Colonel Angus to his rightful place of honor down in the Deep South?

Teedy can take that crap back to California with her. She won't be any future politician of significance here.

They need to put his statue back in the park, especially considering he did more for blacks than any 1000 blacks who live there now.

I don’t care if he did or didn’t. And it shouldn’t matter. I hate rewriting history through today’s lens. It’s just plain ignorance and political correctness bullshite gone too far.

Of course it matters. It illustrates how stupid and racist activists are because all they see is a Civil War white guy on a horse and they’re too ignorant to know anything else about him.

PGT Beauregard never owned a slave. His plan was to stay out of the Civil War and serve as Commandant at West Point. The US pushed HIM out. He later saved several important buildings in New Orleans as an engineer and patented a device to allow larger ships to cross sandbars in the Mississippi. He was a leader of the Unification Movement which sought to give freed slaves full civil rights. Ironically, he fought the folks memorialized in the Liberty Place monument.
Mitch Landrieu was a C- student who once was involved in a murder. Were his daddy not Mayor he would never have graduated High School and probably served time. He was too stupid to understand history. So when his PR folks created this issue he looked at the list and said OK.
Now we need to put Middleton’s name back at LSU.
