Does this mean they have to take down the statue of Robert E. Lee? This is foolish.
Interesting thought. After Katrina hit New Orleans the New New Orleans cry was to remove the statue of Robert E. Lee at Lee Circle. Many have protested against the statue’s removal. So the issue has been tabled. Like the immigration bill, it will come back up.
What the writer did not include about the swastika is that Hitler made changes to it that altered its appearance. Has been around for some 3000 years. A bar in NOLA, Ernst Cafe, has tile on the floor of the “good symbol” and a plaque on the wall with a brief history.
