Some former Confederate officers were very good citizens, others such as Forrest, not so much. Once again, as far as I'm aware, nobody here has justified what so many insist on calling 'erasing history'.
Further, if you see the Confederates as trying to change a bad government, aren't the protesters (NOT LOOTERS OR RIOTERS) doing pretty much the same?

When the idea of a "peaceful protest" happening in your community strikes terror in your heart because you are afraid that something horrible is going to happen to your town that is no longer a peaceful thing.

They were black and white. All of them should pay to repair all of the carnage

Yep. The rioters are a pretty diverse crowd. So are their victims.

This is not about race although some folks sure love to play that card. It makes them untouchable.

Serious question, what made you decide to judge the vast overall majority of protestors (who are doing so peacefully)...by the abhorrent actions of just a few?

Your fear & the "terror in your heart" have nothing to do with what occurs during a peaceful protest. Stop trying to equate actual peaceful protests with rioting & looting.
