Unfortunately it won’t be in the original locations. Racist Jarvis ain’t happy.

Take Em Down NOLA's Malcolm Suber said at a Wednesday morning press conference that he thought the battle over white supremacist monuments had been won when they were pried from their pedestals and carted off in 2017. He thought, he said from the steps of New Orleans City Hall, that we wouldn't hear any more talk about those monuments going back up in the city. Isn't that what all of us who aren't Lost Causers thought?
But newly installed Mayor LaToya Cantrell has given a secret committee reason to believe that she's going to consider their recommendations for where the toppled monuments should go, and that committee, NOLA.com | The Times-Picayune found out through a public records request, has recommended that monuments to Robert E. Lee and P.G.T. Beauregard be re-erected in the city.

Smart political move on her part. Which is all this taking down, putting them up bullshite is really all about.

Is she going to get the courage award for that?

She ain't a big fan of Half Moon and all this publicity he's getting has got to be eating her up. She also knows she's gonna need to ask for more tax money... so this may be an olive branch.
Plus... she may realize it's private property.

She should sell the Jeff Davis one to Beauvoir. Put the Beauregard one back up because he supported racial equality during Reconstruction, which makes him a symbol of redemption and reconciliation. Put Lee back and rename the circle. Leave the White League down and say cop killers shouldn't be glorified.
It would make her look reasonable and thoughtful because she would be taking them on a case by case basis.

IMO, that ground has already been plowed and stirring it up again does no good for anyone....

What could go wrong?

I still want to know what Half Moon’s final plan was here. We all know it was nothing but pure political theater, but leaving the structures in place so no plan for the future tells us all we need to know about his leadership abilities. Anyone thinking this POS making a national run needs to be committed to an insane institution.

He’ll be indicted for malfeasance before he ever makes a presidential run for office.

No.
Put it up. You can take it down, in his honor in the future, and post that with your other gay escapades on Facebook.
