Florida State University students will soon say goodbye to a familiar face.
A prominent statue of one of the school's slave-owning founders will be relocated from the school's front gates, FSU President John Thrasher announced Tuesday.
In addition to the statue's relocation, Thrasher approved seeking the removal of a pro-segregation Florida Supreme Court justice's name from the campus' law school building. However, Thrasher did not accept a third recommendation to change the name of a different campus building that bears the same name as the statue.

I'm not endorsing slavery.
But I question the wisdom of trying to scrub the landscape of all evidence of our slave-owning past. "Never forget".
Displaying the rebel battle flag is a slightly different issue.
"It should be obvious to anyone why conservatives and libertarians should be against Trump. He has no grounding in belief. No core philosophy. No morals. No loyalty. No curiosity. No empathy and no understanding. He demands personal loyalty and not loyalty to the nation. His only core belief is in his own superiority to everyone else. His only want is exercise more and more personal power." smb / purveyor of fact 18/03/18

UVA is one of the top two or three public Universities in the country. They ought to just shut that bad boy down if the goal is to remove the slaveholders from prominence.
What about Yale?
Yale University will scrub the title of "master" for faculty who work in the residential colleges — but it will not change the name of its college honoring John C. Calhoun, a white supremacist politician and strong proponent of slavery in the 19th century.

"When government fears the people, there is liberty. When the people fear the government, there is tyranny."
A lie doesn't become the truth, wrong doesn't become right, and evil doesn't become good just because it is accepted by a majority.
