This article just went up about 45 minutes ago.

It seems with the Louisiana House passing a bill to block cities from removing a monument, the mayor of New Orleans is not wasting time.

The reason that monuments are coming down in New Orleans is that the establishment isn't listening to the local historical societies and their nonsense. That is why New Orleans will soon not have monuments and Richmond will still have theirs.

When the 4th monument in New Orleans comes down every town will wonder why they still have a Confederate monument and when will they be able to get rid of them.
