Leave the monument alone! Stop the destructive, meaningless, evil activitys. Instead give back to your community and appreciate what we have.

Disrespect to the Italian Community if blackmail works to take this statute down. Enough is enough with this taking down historical statutes.

The biggest reason why the statue needs to stay, is that Columbus is the first person to bring Catholicism to the Americas and promote its growth. Alot of history has been forgotten or twisted. Catholics need to know their faith and their history, should stand up for and defend it, and should be proud of it.

I support MORE statues and memorials, not fewer. Why not erect a monument to our local Native American brothers and sisters in a nearby location? Teach ALL history!

Attempts to destroy history does not change history. We should take this opportunity to educate everyone about the history of of Christopher Columbus and the importance of this monument to the Italian American community. We can also take this opportunity to honor The indigenous people of our area.

Columbus was first and foremost an explorer.His supposed sins are fabricated and greatly overstated!

Statue honors the Italian immigrants who put it there. It doesn’t honor slavery or anything similar!! Leave the statue alone!

history is not something to be changed because someone doesn't like the person. This monument is honoring the vast immigrant population who have blessed our shores. It is particularly important to Italian Americans. Im not sure who this guy from OHA is but he certainly seems to be getting undue press. Fight the Marxists, keep the statue

This is more than Christopher Columbus. This was about hardworking Italian Immigrants and the unity with Native Americans. History should not be erased.
