No, I think the silent majority is ok with ones that are controversial (in most people's eyes, ie. Lee, Stonewall Jackson, Jeff Davis) being relocated into places more appropriate like a Civil War museum or park or something. Some will still bitch, but you can't please everyone. But having them in public places just isn't acceptable to too many today. I don't 100% agree with it, but I do understand it. IMHO, people should grow thicker skin. To forget history is to pave the road to repeating past tragedies.

This thread isn't about those statues though. It's about George Washington, Ulysses S. Grant and Francis Scott Key.
