I'm not personally against having them taken down, but I can agree with the worry of sanitizing history. These sorts of statues belong in museums dedicated to the Civil War. I think that is a good compromise in this case.
As someone put it, can't remember who, maybe it is a better idea to have these memories in museums than on pedestals.
This is especially true for a log of them, which are fantastic works of art. For example, the ones in Charlottesville are well known examples of the particular artist that did them.
