In short, your position on the statues is defective due to the fact that a majority of these statues were put up during contentious anti-Black, anti-Civil Rights events well past the end of the Civil War.
How can you tell? The recent toppling of one statue took only a tug and it bent into a pretzel. Low quality bronze from statues produced at cheap, cheap prices from Northern factories to sell to Confederate sympathizes.
