[Robwin]

As Pat Buchanan notes in his excellent piece at the beginning of this thread, What they blindly refuse to see is that while its sins are scarlet, as are those of all civilizations.

The advocates of removal see themselves as morally superior creatures, in fact almost without fault, compared to those with whom they disapprove. Such arrogance makes them very dangerous people.

Pat is not incorrect.

But he does not answer who gets to determine what monuments are owned by Mobile, Memphis or New Orleans.

Do those cities get to pick and chose, or does the state or national capitol decide?
