Due to the fact that after the statue is removed, 2 things can happen too it:
1. It is donated to a museum, where people can learn about the person with more context to history at the time.
2. It is sold to a private collector, who'll most likely sell it to a museum. If they don't, than that could be considered erasing history, in some cases.
Edit 1: To the people messaging me and saying I don't understand the Confederacy, my great great grandfather fought in the civil war for the confederates. He's buried in the oldest graveyard in Houston. That doesn't mean I want a monument honoring him in my city.

30 commentairesBut it is censoring it because people are appalled by it. I'm appalled by all the pc and micro-aggressive bull s*** you people put out. But do I go in and say "well you shouldn't talk about that because I hate it". No I don't because that is hindering free speech. And you are hindering people from honoring history. I respect confederates and all they're leaders as well as the union and all of they're leaders. Just because something makes you uncomfortable doesn't mean you should remove it. You should engage in discussion and try and sway that person to your said. That is peaceful debate and people should practice it
