The Confederate monuments don't belong anywhere except in front of a museum. Not in the middle of streets. Not in a school. And especially not near courthouses. It's downright stupid that these statues are commemorated and celebrated, when they do nothing but revise history, hide the truth, and whitewash the Confederacy. Mayor Landrieu delivered an excellent speech explaining why they must come down.
However, there's one I'm downright against taking down: the Confederate memorial on Stone Mountain.

I hate this sculpture. It should never have been carved in the first place. But if you destroy that sculpture, you continue to destroy that mountain.
Monuments and statues are replaceable. Mountains aren't.

Well, these sorts of things happen when the people are unhappy, recent events have not put the biggest of smiles on people, in and out of America. And when you have unhappy people unhappy things start to happen, Trump seems to just be brushing the unhappy people off and they've had enough. Trump needs to cater to the needs of all Americans as best he can, but he's very one sided throughout his time in office.
