[QUOTE=OrangeBlossomBaby;2016481] The sentiment that the Jackson statue is offensive is irrelevant. It IS offensive.QUOTE]
Seriously?? The hero of New Orleans and a President revered by the people of his time? The man who coined the phrase describing the White House as "The People's House"?. Certainly not "offensive" then and only "offensive" to some today due to ignorance of history or outright denial of it. One cannot apply today's culture to the culture of the 1800's.
