    Fine, Take them all down and even art as it might be by an artist that in some way might be considered racist. Yeah maybe the guy that designed the Shuttlecocks was a child pornographer or pedophile. Then , rename all streets with personal names on them to a number or letter or after trees or rock types. No color named streets like Black St, or White Avenue or Green parkway etc. NO personal names, no MLKjr, No Cleaver, No Ward, No Wornal, no Berkeley Park or blvd, no Bond bridge, no Watkins, no future past or present mayor names on anything etc. No White names no black names no Latio names no Asian names No anybodys name or a name that can be found on any voter roll. No Airport naming except Kansas City International...PERIOD. No naming Federal Buildings after people or Post Offices. I am sick and tired of the madness we are living through.

    So much resistance to change.

    There is nothing "mad" about changing street names, or removing Confederate Monuments that shouldn't have been erected in the first place.

    If you want to blame someone, blame the Daughters of the Confederacy for trying to rewrite history.

  8. ^^^^Andrew Jackson did not fight for the Confederacy. He was a representative, a senator, a governor, and a state Supreme Court justice, and the seventh president of the United States in addition to having been a general in the U.S. army. It must have sucked to have failed history. You are probably so afraid of you lack of accomplishment that you feel an irrational desire to tear down any remembrance of men who have far outshown you in life.

  9. "just one thing that we can do to get us closer to reconciliation."

    And then there will be another thing, then a few more, then just a couple more things, etc. There will always be more demands, and never any reconciliation.
