To Pensacola Mayor Robinson and the City Council

There have been numerous petitions to destroy and/or remove the Confederate Memorial at Lee Square in Pensacola,  Florida after varous national events.

 

As horrible as those events were it should not be a rallying call to destroy history.  

 

Remember, Confederate veterans, to whom most of these memorials are dedicated,  were granted the same benefits as other American War Veterans  by various Acts of Congress.

 

Censoring of history in public places just because it doesn't fit a certain agenda has to be stopped, and is a violation of free speech rights. 

​

All our veterans memorials should be protected from vandalism and destruction to protect them from being weaponized against us.

 

Please sign the petition to let the City of Pensacola and all elected officials know that we want our memorials to remain and protected by City Ordinance.
