The public is grossly misinformed about the history of Columbus. The true goal is to discredit any Euro hero. It shows bigotry toward the Italian culture.

The Columbus statue has been part of Syracuse for years and should remain here . This is part of our history and you cannot erase it by taking down a statue . Slavery was part of out history that cannot be erased . Native Americans owned slaves back then also and thrived off of them . We should remember that Columbus made his mark in history .

No to any destruction to any historical monuments. All who destroy should be fully prosecuted to the fullest.

I am appalled by the lies and the anger of a man, from 500+ years ago. Columbus is a hero.

I know native Americans are upset with this because they were here first, which I respect. But the statue signifies the beginning of AMERICA, not this continent. Why not put a statue of a legonary leader of Native Americans? Problem solved.
