These monuments are a very expensive endeavor that benefit noone and are contextually lost. Being in the middle of a city and protected means that you're making the decision on behalf of a community that likely wants it gone -- it's seen as a celebration of the actions Gen. Lee did against the United States. I find that it's not far from the Confederate Museum and its also not far from the Confederate Graveyard. It'd be much more contextually appropriate nearer to either and it can be donated in good will toward those Confederate flaggers or whoever still really appreciates the Confederate rebellion. I would rather not have my tax money go towards continually cleaning and securing something so divisive to the community that actually lives IN Richmond - not Henrico or Mechanicsville.
