I would argue that this has been an issue for decades, not since


Memorial Day. It also isn't just liberals, if you look at the polls.

The only reason its an issue now is that people who don't like the statues have some power and support from the general public to do something about it now. For instance, do you think that the Mississippi state flag gets changed without George Floyd and the resulting outrage? No way it does.

Again, as you noted, I am not advocating tearing down any statues, but I ain't losing sleep over it.
