I mean we have statues nd even a National Holiday for Christopher Columbus and Robert E. Lee is Santa Clause compared to him.

Not a lot of background on this. Maybe the city just wanted to sell the statue.

It's not like the statue that was completely dismantled in Louisiana.
The protestors could just buy Lee and put him upon somebody's lawn.
