Tearing down, defacing, relocating, and legislation against Confederate heritage and history is serving only one purpose, and that is further dividing the people of this country. If we're not very careful, the division will quickly go beyond repair and when that happens the USA is crippled forever. Monument Avenue should stay exactly as it is. Richmond needs to designate another area of the city to show different heritage and culture. I'm sure if this happens, the heritage of all people can be respected equally and Richmond would be a model city for other areas of the South and the whole country. If you destroy the history of the South, the North will have no history of the War either. The two sides are forever entwined and you can't have one without the other.
