Evidently some city leaders regard Confederate monuments as something that needs to be taken care of immediately.
In the above link the removal of the Confederate monument in St. Louis is announced and it is stated that the monument will be out by Friday.
St. Louis city government gave it to a Civil War Museum in Missouri and they settled the lawsuit over the ownership of the monument.
One of the stipulations is that it won't be shown in St. Louis. On private land outside of St. Louis the monument loses most of its power.
So this makes for St. Louis, New Orleans, and Orlando getting rid of their Confederate monuments.
So Baltimore is going to be at least 4th.
