I think the people down there rather just mope and cower in their house.
Their ancestors fought the most powerful army on the continent sometimes barefooted and almost won multiple times. Today their descendants, that glad wrap themselves in their imagery and symbols, can’t spare the time to look over their statues and graves.
That’s a shame. Ideally, you would have minimum two people sitting out near the statue(s) or display for a four to five hour shift and have most importantly a cell phone camera on hand to photograph or even videotape any sort of rude, confrontational behaviour from potential miscreants.
