In reference to charlotsville, there were more than nazis present. There were actually people there who did not want the statues taken down for historical reasons. Our history should not be erased as people are trying to do now, just because a minority of the populace(i dont mean that as in ethnicity) find them offensive. They are part of our country history and heritage, should serve of a reminder of how far we have come. If you were to destroy every statue of anyone who held a slave, you would need to completely change the entire landscape. Most of these statues were erected for other reasons, such as the robert e lee. His statue was put up because he helped to reunite both sides among other things.
