Lee Circle will lose the statue of its namesake after the New Orleans City Council voted 6-1 Thursday (Dec. 17) to remove four monuments related to the Confederacy from their prominent perches around the city.
Besides Gen. Robert E. Lee, statues of Gen. P.G.T. Beauregard at the entrance of City Park and Confederate president Jefferson Davis in Mid-City and the obelisk dedicated to the Battle of Liberty Place at the foot of Iberville Street will all come down.

Lee didnât fight for slaveryâ he fought for his home.
The fact that these elected fascist frauds dare stand in judgment of people of the past when we’re the most ethically, morally, socially and spiritually depraved and debased since the founding of the Republic makes it all the more egregious.
We love Nawlin’s.......used to go every year but if they’re going the way of these knucklehead revisionists....screw it. We won’t go back..........ever!
War was going to happen regardless. If the Civil War had occurred decades earlier, say the early 1830s, President Jackson would have been no less obstinate in keeping the union together (and as said, he would’ve hanged the leaders, including his own 1st term Vice-President Calhoun).
Specifically, slavery was legal in the Union slave states of Missouri, Delaware, Maryland and Kentucky until the ratification of the 13th amendment in December of 1865, 8 months after the surrender of the Confederacy.
How long must we wait until the circles = 0 O O 0
are removed once their satisfaction of our current magic mulatto is gone? Next year?
GO TRUMP GO CRUZ ~ YOU WIN OR WE LOSE!
We isis/taliban type government officials trying to erase the history of this country.
Whoops! Our isis/taliban type government officials trying to erase the history of this country.
WHEW. Finally I’ll be able to walk through the streets of New Orleans, outside the safety zone known as The French Quarter, without worrying about the natives.

Where in Hell is Jindal?
**************
What can Jindal do?
What a cabal of leftist loser weasels. Politician degenerates all.
No, the South;s decision to go to war to preserve an economic system based on slavery cost the nation 650,000 lives.
I lived on Lee Circle in 1965.
It looks as if Ben's men left their legacy.
Rape, Rape, Rape, the women
Loot, Loot, Loot the linens
All we will leave behind
Is ruin and pregnant women...
Butler's men sang this marching through New Orleans.
New Orleans is a crap hole . Somewhere better can put them back up if they want. Liberals prey on the dumb.
The communist north was the one preying on people. Educate yourself the south didnt care about being part of the country. It wasnt about slavery.
“I do hope a nearby town moves in and claims the statues. They can even poach some of the tourist trade.”
That’s a great idea. Even if one thinks succession was a lousy idea (it was), those Confederate monuments have historical value.
