Politicians need to read his biography and consider his work at West Point, his military service which caused him to be asked to lead both armies, his efforts at reconciliation and education after the war and then look in a mirror and evaluate how they measure up. I am sure taking down the statute will assist in resolving the black family crisis.
More than 50 blacks were shot by other blacks in ChiCongo this weekend.
But removing a statue will make them feel better about themselves.
