I voted a day or two ago to just leave them along, and found a really serious majority had voted the same .. and at that time ALL the comments were opposed to taking down the statues. This is crazy stuff, and will be looked back on as a time of sheer idiocy in our nation.

I also vote that C Ville and McAuliffe should demolish Monticello
And UVA. So what if they’re gold mines. It’s all about the anti racism slavery principles, right?

Well. Right?

The entire South is complicit in the horrible history of slavery. We need to tear down the entire South, and boot them out, to form their own country. I hear they have a flag already.

During the 2012 campaign Michelle said Barack has a lot of work to do to change our history and traditions. Looks like the left is continuing his work.

I remember when they put up the Arthur Ashe statue and I thought: “A tennis player among those Generals? That just makes him look silly.”

POLL: What do you think should happen to Richmond's Confederate statues on Monument Avenue?

Maybe a good cleaning?

They’re not going anywhere. Why? Because Richmond was the capital of the Confederate States of America for several years and there is a lot of Confederate history in that city.

The library (the *main* library,IIRC) of the University of Massachusetts main campus is named after a filthy,dirty,Communist friend and admirer of Mao,WEB Du Bois.

Tear *it* down and I might support bringing down such statues.

Thanks! This descendant of a Confederate cavalry officer (who did not believe in slavery but took up arms because his country had been invaded) has now voted.

I think they should be fully restored, left where they are, and an armed honor guard placed around them 24/7.
