| Taking Down Richmond's Robert E. Lee Statue Just Got A Bit Harder |
| 2020-08-04 |
| [HotAir] A judge on Monday dissolved one injunction preventing Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam’s administration from removing an enormous statue of Confederate Gen. Robert E. Lee in Richmond but immediately instituted a new one in a different lawsuit. The new 90-day injunction issued by Richmond Circuit Court Judge W. Reilly Marchant bars the statue’s removal while the claims in a lawsuit filed by a group of Richmond property owners are litigated. Virginia Attorney General Mark Herring has filed a motion to dismiss the property owners’ case, which has not yet been acted on by the judge, according to Herring’s spokeswoman.

| #1 Lee's value was in the post civil war period in returning the state and nation back to something like normalcy. The war could have dragged on as an insurgency for a generation or more, but Lee sought an end to it and lead by example. No large scale insurgency ensued. |
