Save our circle and the General Robert E. Lee monument. Please sign this Petition to keep our centuries old monuments in Louisiana, especially New Orleans, which has been desecrated enough by Hurricane Katrina.

The opposition is pushing to move these monuments but we are staying focused on the history of these sites. Send this petition link to three people you know and call your council representative to demand that these statues stay where they are.

I usually vote Democratic, but the Robert E. Lee monument is an historical piece of art. I don't live anywhere near the South and I feel strongly. Can citizens put an initiative on the ballot reinstating the monuments?

Shame on those who would tear down the monuments. This has driven a wedge between citizens - all because of thosee who would rewrite history in favor of current politics. Usee that negative energy to honor those in your community who also deserve monuments.

Leave the memorials alone; they are part and parcel of the beautiful city of New Orleans.

If we let the liberals and history revisionist start in New Orleans, where will it end? Taking down the Jefferson and Washington Monuments in Washington DC because they were slave owners? What about Mt Rushmore? Blasting off the faces of Washington and Jefferson and replacing them with Oblabla and Clinton? STOP THEM NOW!!!
