I'm against removal of historical monuments, statues, etc. They are part of our collective history, and people should not forget, because otherwise we are all doomed to repeat it.

I lived in Philadelphia in the 1970's. Frank Rizzo was a tough cop, and a tough mayor, which in those days was necessary much of the time. But he was not someone to emulate as a person. IMO Frank Rizzo was an a$$hole.

Damn revisionists. Leave the statues alone.

At least Rizzo didn t firebomb an entire neighborhood to the ground and kill a bunch of children in the process. Frank and his brother Rizzo ain’t got nothing on abusing the black community when compared to Wilson Goode.
