I've thought about it, and I'm against the removal of confederate statutory (or at least, for relocation to Confederate cemeteries).  It seems to me the four years of the "stars and bars" Confederacy is a very useful scapegoat for four score and seven years of the evil of slavery under "Old Glory".  Until they go for Jefferson, which they have and will do again.

Not until the Emancipation Proclamation were the slaves in the breakaway states to be freed.

There was also the competing ideas of loyalty to state v. loyalty to the union, and the idea of state supremacy and nullification (first espoused by Jefferson and Madison).  Robert E. Lee considered his first loyalty to Virginia.

At any rate, there are plenty of landmarks and statutory that reek of historical crimes.  The Roman Coliseum was built with Jewish slave labor after the Romans crushed the Judean revolt in 73AD.  Not to mention the Arch of Titus in commemoration.  I care for neither, but they are history nevertheless.
