I’m actually OK with it being moved to a battlefield ...
Virtually all universities in the United States have been radicalized by the socialist-left.
If folks would quit sending these indoctrination centers their money, and their children, the United States would be a far better, and more sane, place.
I concur with moving the statue to the New Market Battlefield, in lieu of leaving it at VMI. And my VMI graduate friend I mentioned in my post #10, also that that New Market is a good alternate location. VMI cadets fought there in 1964 and it is an hour’s drive north of campus. It has a nice museum and the grounds, on both sides of interstate I-81 are open for walking.
