I don't care about the statues personally. But i certain my understand wanting to preserve history.
The Roman Empire was built on slaves. They were often brutal and cruel. Should we go around Europe removing traces of the Empire? Demolish the Colosseum?
Should we destroy Auschwitz since it was a Nazi death camp?
Or should we learn from history good and bad?
So you agree those Democrats of the Old South are up there with Auschwitz, I see. Is that why the right wingers flooded to Virginia to defend them?
They wouldn't do the same for Republican Martin Luther King.
So this bullshit theory about preserving history is just that. Bullshit.
It's about protecting the memory of mass murdering Democrats for some reason.
