@Bradskii
this thread is for the discussion of the history of the monuments. The other is to discuss why they were taken down by city ordinance or the supposed rationals as to why they were defaced, vandalized or destroyed.

Good idea. Maybe we can start another thread about the events of January 6 last year as well. But we'll limit it to discussions about the architectual merits and history of the Capitol. Or maybe we can talk about the history of any schools closed down by covid. How about one on Djokovic. But only to discuss the quality of his backhand compared to his forehand.

What do you think?
