Perhaps we should leave the statues alone...but next to each statue add another statue of that same confederate "hero" lynching black people...or whipping them, or maybe a statue of a slave on an auction block. You know, add some balance to the "glory" these white racists see in those statues.

It occurs to me that republicans seem to view black, Mexican, LGBT, Muslims and poor people in the same light as Nazi Germans once viewed Jewish people. We must be vigilant that it goes no further.
