People who championed this will no doubt treat other people better now that this statue has been plucked from their eyes.

Meanwhile, my lady is out in Rhode Island touring the mansion of the largest slave trader in the history of our country. Weirdest thing??

Is there a reason to visit Virginia now with all the Civil War memorabilia gone?

My ancestors fought for the Union during the Civil War. One was killed at Cold Harbor. Another was twice wounded. Despite my feelings about that war, it is part of the south's history, like it or not, and removing these statues is shameful, just to appease BLM.

Hey Richmond is and will still be known as the Confederate Capital of the South.......... Democratic's have destroyed our way of life here. Shameful how fast Blackface turned his back on the rest of the Commonwealth.

Nazism is part of Germany's history. Surely you don't think that all the Nazi symbolism erected in the 40s should still be standing, right? Surely you wouldn't say it's a shame that all the Nazi symbolism is gone, why is this any different? I agree that the civil war and Lee are a part of our history and shouldn't.ve forgotten. Same with Nazism in Germany.....it's a part of their history and shouldn't be forgotten. But, in both cases, statues to honor the heros of either movement seem more than a little bit inappropriate.

Extreme comparisons like this are disgusting and why our history is being erased, to appease the small minority. Who is going to argue in favor of Nazism? What would happen if one did argue in favor of the Nazism side of this comparison? Last I knew the Confederacy wasn’t about extermination and world domination. If you were as smart as you think you are you’d know the difference yourself and wouldn’t continue propagating the divide in this country or drivel you just spewed out.
