OK, You've convinced me what it will not do, can you now tell me what it WILL DO?
I say it will DO NOTHING. Nothing but waste tax dollars and deflect efforts from our pressing issues.

You're correct. Removing these statues will not do anything to correct the ills of the past. Nor will it benefit anyone going forward. Removing them does cost money, not sure maybe it was privately donated. Most of all, removing them was another reminder to blacks that they were once oppressed, just in case they forgot. I'd bet my house that 90% of the city didn't know anything about these statues except for Lee Circle before Mitch made it an issue. But leave it to Mitch to make sure blacks are reminded of their oppression.

Yeah, that must be why African immigrants shoot right past the natives in terms of success. Systemic racism. The "but I don't get it. we tore down the statues. why are they still fricking animals?' jokes will never end.
Never end.
