What institution? What institution are you trying to protect that needs the confederate symbols?
We don't need the symbols. I'm not sure how you got that considering I led with, essentially, "I don't care if they take them down."
But if the standard for removal is "did they support slavery or own slaves" that carries over to founders. At that point, why wouldn't we shut down Monticello? Or remove Madison statues? And if Madison is such a shitty human being, why are we going to continue to act like the BOR is some sacrosanct document?

Okay I follow you. I feel like a fair point has been made on the Confederate symbols. The founders are untouchable though. I would gladly protest the removal of anything to do with the founders.
