Displaying these Confederate monuments is a protected right under the 1st Amendment.


I don't want morons tearing down these monuments, but this has nothing to do with the First Amendment.

Still, chalk one up in the win column.

The monuments celebrate a bad cause. If you want them for history, stick them in a museum. If you want them for heritage reasons, i can think of 1,001 other things to represent 400 years of Southern heritage. Not celebrating people related to the worst four years of Southern and US history.
