A new round of debate over monuments honoring Confederate soldiers has been ignited by a controversial court order in Kentucky.
Ruling against Louisville Mayor Greg Fisher and the city government, Jefferson County Circuit judge Judith McDonald-Burke issued an injunction blocking any attempts to remove a Confederate memorial not too far from the University of Louisville.
The restraining order was filed by a number of persons and organizations, not least of which were Republican congressional candidate Everett Corley, political activist Ed Springston, the Sons of Confederate Veterans, and Kentucky Division.
Echoing the concerns of many Southerners, the plaintiffs argue that removing the memorial and others like it will do nothing to make up for the past wrongs they supposedly represent and disrespect the men they are meant to honor.
But Mayor Fisher and his allies are not willing to let this go on. Instead, they intend to appeal the matter further, in the hope that a more sympathetic judge will not let them go ahead with their plan to move the memorial elsewhere.

when u think about by removing the memorials you are disrespecting the dead it doe not matter which side they fought for they still have a right to be remembered and the right to have memorials to honor them also the bigger picture is if you get rid of all the evidence of mistakes made in the past one could one day say these event’s never took place or happened and one day we may even repeat those same mistakes wonder if anyone else has looked at the issue in this perspective besides me!
THANK YOU JUDGE – THIS IS A PART OF OUR HISTORY AND NEEDS TO BE LEFT ALONE AS WELL AS MANY OTHERS !!!!
Good
The mayor is only pandering to the blacks and the liberals. All history of the South was not bad, it’s been highly over exaggerated. They had slavery in the north too. We should remove all moments to the civil war if we’re going to sterilize history. There were northerners who were for slavery too. Let’s not say it was only in the South. Do this mayer and vote one in that has some intelligence.
I APPLAUD THE JUDGE !
If they are going to remove this . They need to remove Arlington cemetery . Not right ! All of our veterans fought all wars in the name of Jewish banking industry .
Try that on for size . They bankers have made the whole globe slaves through deceitful banking
. Gotta wake up to this cause they aim to attack us next . We are one thing standing in the way of their final UN plan
Thank You Sir. What is this hostility against the Confederacy? It is part of History and should remain so To he$$ with PC. And I am from the North.
