The irony of Virginia taking this down is that Lee fought against against North because he couldn't take arms up against his home...

VIRGINIA.

I don't like anyone tearing anything down historical, but of all places Virginia should have kept Lee there.

Exactly.....I imagine most people that knew Lee at the time would tell you he didn't fight for the Confederacy he fought for the state of Virginia.

There were a lot of similarities between what happened back then and what is happening today. The difference is today Americans seem to be content to sit back and let it happen, probably because we don't have to fight for everything we have like they did back then.
