Charlottesville Mayor Mike Signer said in a statement that whether the monuments go to museums, cemeteries or elsewhere, "it is clear that they no longer can be celebrated in shared civic areas, like Charlottesville's Downtown Mall."

Sure they will go to museums. If they do the museums will have to destroy them at some point if this continues.

Destruction of our history ping list. I think this will be

Wasn't he in favor of the statue not long ago, or am I thinking of a different Mayor?
Seems he goes whichever way the wind blows.
To: ColdOne
He knows that leftist operatives started the violence which was blamed on Trump supporters. This action is to distract people from the truth.

Why not just go out the way, Mayor, and call for the demolition of Monticello?
In fact, for the University of Virginia?
I mean, come on, you’re a “man of principle” aren’t you? You and your Vice Mayor Bellamy?
Oh, and why not a “special session” to investigate the behavior of your PD and why it didn’t intervene. Whether it was told to “stand down” and if so, by who?
And whether this whole thing was orchestrated by you and others to foment hate and confrontation?

How about a special session to find out who ordered the cops to stand down?
To: ColdOne
Meh.
Citizens of Charlottesville got what they voted for.

I would look for the ties between him and Obama. It is definitely McAuliffe, but there has to be a trail.
This is all Obama’s doing. He owns this, not Trump.

Why would Charlottesville stop at Confederate monuments. Why not remove everything connected with slave owners? Shut down UVa, bulldoze Monticello, and erase everything from prior to Barack Hussein’s enlightenment on gay marriage.
