Reviews of Confederate Monument
"Booooo!!! Sad little losers' participation trophy. Originally build as a "whites only" water fountain, this monument to some of the country's most shameful acts should be ground down to dust. The South lost, and rightfully so. No confederate traitor to the United States deserves a memorial on its soil."

"These monuments don't represent slavery. They are for remembering the soldiers who fought so bravely to defend against what they saw as an invasion of their homeland. Only very rich land owners had slaves. The average confederate soldiers who became POWs were asked why they fought. None recorded said to preserve slavery. Almost all said "because you are here". Also it's good to keep in mind that though slavery was a major issue at the time of the Cival war, it was not why it was fought. The war was fought for no other reason then to preserve the Union no matter the hogwash taught in school. Monuments like these should forever stand to remind us of a time of division that ripped our country in two. Literally pitting brother against brother. And honor those on both sides who fought for what they believed in. Whether it be right or wrong."
"Horrible monument that should not still be standing. It’s appalling that in the State of Kentucky (a Union state) a city government would have a monument to the Confederacy, a brutal regime that existed to preserve the clearly evil institution of slavery. This monument was originally put in Murray to intimidate the black community of Murray and Calloway County at large. A disgrace of a monument that should be taken down."
"Great experience looking at the historic sites. understanding how confederate wives needed to cope with their death of their husbands in building a monument. I don't agree with the cause but to lose someone is heartbreaking so I guess this was a way to cope."
