      Robert E Lee statues exist despite Lee stating he believes no statues of the Confederacy should be built and all should be torn down, as historically he recognized that it only sows division and takes a country longer to heal from.

      All such statues (especially of him) would clearly be an act to not allow the country to heal quickly.
