This statue represents an important part of our country and city of Syracuse’s history as well. Leave the statue as is and erect another statue which also represents another aspect of our history. We can learn important lessons from our past by preserving and maintaining its representations not by eliminating or removing them.

We would not think of removing the Memorial Park display in Tipperary Hill. Then why think of removing the Columbus statue which stands proud displaying the ethnic roots and accomplishments of one segment of our diverse city.

fight on! The statue should be surrounded by other memorials explaining the statue, and honoring the Indian tribes of NY State.

This is history (good or bad). Auschwitz is now a monument so that NO ONE will ever forget....so, STOP destroying history.

No need to destroy this piece of our history, we should honor brave men and woman who founded this great land.
