You were asked, in the voting booth when selecting your representatives. I suspect the yea votes outnumbered yours.
If I can live with that, you and the BLMers can learn to live with a statue of Robert E. Lee.
I don't care either way. I would be OK with keeping them, although probably not for the same reasons you would.
So if voters in Philadelphia decide to tear down a statue of George Washington and replace it with one of Barack Obama, Huey Newton, or Malcolm X, I guess you'll be fine with that too.
