[QUOTE="public hermit, post: 76372462, member: 421854"] That seems like a slippery slope, which is understandable but a fallacy still. Sure, it could be that the intention is to tear up everything. That's a pretty jaundiced view of the intention, I would say. It could be that removing his statue stands for the very ideas you want preserved. I tend to see it as an insistence that we embody the ideas. I would rather have the statues gone and the ideas embodied by actual citizens. I think that's the point. [/QUOTE]
