So...if I try to understand the "logic" expressed by not just some on this forum, but others all over the world...we should destroy all edifices that have any connection whatsoever to slavery. If that is the case, should we not tear down all of the ancient ruins in Rome? How about Greece? And don't forget our own railroad system. All built on the backs of slave labor.

As John Lennon said while reminiscing about Strawberry Fields, "living is easy with eyes closed."
