Word. If anywhere should hold on it should be there. It was so disappointing to hear that even the great Lee's beloved home state was taking down statues. Scumbags everywhere though I guess.
It's still up so far. At this point I don't think they're going to take it down, unless they pull something slick and just spring it on everyone one night, like they've done in Florida and Louisiana.
It's against state law for the city to remove the statue, but they have a bunch of Clinton thugs on the council, and the local university (UVA) seems fairly shitty as well. They chastised one of their faculty for quoting Thomas Jefferson in an email signature, even though Jefferson founded their fucking school.
