Emmitt Till deserves a statueI do not think people in Mississippi want a statue of Bobby Kennedy on their court house lawn.Every courthouse in the South should have a statue to Civil Rights fightersEvery court house in the South should have a statue to honor the brave men who fought to defend their homelands from invasion by federal government. Whole units of the Union Army were immigrants from Europe. How do you think people felt when a bunch of Germans came marching through their communities?Maybe when the south has as many monuments honoring those who fought in the Civil Rights movement, we can allow them to keep some of their confederate monuments
Let them put up monuments at sites where lynching took place, where civil rights workers were beaten, where lunch counters were segregated
You go ahead and fund those ventures, liewinger.
Meanwhile, other people (who aren't dependent upon the government for their daily bread and who actually live in the communities we're talking about) funded the statues and monuments that exist. So keep your stupid sticky fingers in your nose, and off the art.
If they are on private property, I have no problem with them
If they are on public property, they need to be used as urinals
