If we only erected statues of perfect people then we would have no statues at all. The statues of Christopher Columbus celebrate the good that he did, they do not celebrate his weaknesses. Every mature and intelligent person knows this. Unfortunately, a loud few with twisted perceptions and fragile egos cannot understand what most people understand about statues and the human condition.

Stop tearing down our history. Our country has come a long way and Americans are proud of that.

It's a disgrace to try to remove the memory of such an important figure in history. Shame on you!

Columbus is part of our heritage as Americans and Westerners, his statue deserves to remain standing. Much of the criticism of Columbus is based on the writings of his political rival and he is blamed for atrocities committed by the Spanish that occurred after his time. He was not imperfect, but he was far from evil.

Please do not remove the Columbus monument because a few anti American agitators want you to. The monument is part of my heritage as an Italian American.

Taking this statue down is a complete travesty. What the statue portrays doesn't matter, it's merely a part of history and should remain standing. History is here for a reason, so the future can learn from the past. Keep the statue up!!!!!!!!

It is a Fine Piece of Italian Art! It should be Protected!! Do we need a Lawsuit to keep it there??? It costs a fortune to remove it, and rebuild something in it’s place! I for one are sick of paying HUGE TAXES in Onondaga County!

Christopher Columbus is an eternal hero. Do not destroy his place in history due to transient causes and wicked trends, otherwise those responsible will be villainized in history themselves. Do not go down on record as somebody who aided in the destruction of a great society and culture.

Do not side with the insatiable. riotous communist mob and defined the falsely maligned COLUMBUS and the Italian Americans. The claims against his character are false. Support real history. Support Columbus.
