I mean, other than maybe puppies and kittens, someone, somewhere will be offended by it.

Watch, they'll want to put like a big trumpet or some stupid shite. Or more terrible art like all down poydras. I can't wait for that new dinosaur snake looking thing to be torn apart and create a mess in the next bad storm that blows through.

Why is anyone suggesting they should put something else in its place.

The democrats are acting like ISIS and many Americans are like the dumb asses in the movie Idiocracy. Wake up and speak up! If we allow this to happen, it will never end. Why do we want history destroyed?

FWIW I have only really seen republicans so far taking down flags. (Al and SC)

This is very hyperbolic. Not all dems want Lee gone.

Lee was one of the greatest democrats of all time.

Kittens, while cute, frequently turn into cats. I do not really care for cats, therefore, this will offend me.

Hope you are well.

Mitch is term limited out so this isn't pandering for mayoral re-election. He would be getting into the governor's race kind of late and likely pissing off voters north of BR. The only angle I can think of is he wants this to be his legacy and rename the circle and dedicate something during the 300 year anniversary.

His daddy already has the Moonwalk. But I wouldn't be surprised.

You know, come to think of it, the Tupac statue in Atlanta offends me. I dont think we should honor someone that was so sexist against women.

Also the malcolm x statue in NY needs to come down. A monument to someone that promoted violence has no place in America.

MLK cheated on his wife and smoked cigarettes. We should not have statues glorifying these things.

Actually, what's going on right now is a lot more like Nazi Germany than the Confederacy ever was. But, to be fair, it compares most closely to Communist China.

I just read that little fricker's manifesto. Surprise! The rebel flag and Lee were not mentioned.

If it's inevitable that Lee's statue is taken down then I would be for moving the Bienville statue from Decatur St. and placing it on top of the pillar. Since he is the city's founding father why not place his effigy in a prominent place overlooking the city.

I think I will support the removal. The should put a statue of Benjamin Butler instead.

So you want to honor a man who hated jews?

The man freed some slaves, and called New Orleans women whores. The man deserves a statue more than Lee.

Never in my life have I met a Landrieu that was worth a frick.. He is a small minded man who makes his decisions based not on common sense, but only on climbing the political ladder.. He is following the Obama election plan "keep the black community happy, weather you mean what you say or are full of shite just say it"
