Put them in central location so that school children can learn...from the despicable parts of our nation's past.

Not true, Germany has them all over the cities, as we do in the battlefields and locations where battles happened, where those that were involved lived and at the cemetaries where the lost are buried. Japan has left buildings we damaged stand as a monument to their brave soldiers. Hitlers birthplace in Austria still stands and is identified. The suggestion of moving the statures to a central location so kids could go and learn is a great thought but not practical. Schools don't teach history (field trips were part of my schooling), parents don't teach history. Go to any Civil War battlefield or museum and count heads, you might be surprised how many aren't there. We will eliminate any knowledge of the bad parts of our story, and for those that think that's a good thing, congratulations, your revision will happen.
