This is what happens when people think they can remove things that they decide offend them. A monster has been unleashed. Smashed with a sledge hammer. Sick, sick behavior!

Aug 21, 2017
A monument in Baltimore to Christopher Columbus — believed to be the first one erected to the Italian explorer in America — was vandalized.Baltimore Police said they were looking into the incident, but couldn’t say when the damage took place.A video posted to YouTube on Monday by a user named “Popular Resistance” shows a man striking the base of the monument near Herring Run Park repeatedly with a sledgehammer. Another person holds a sign that reads: “Racism, tear it down.” Another sign is taped to the monument reading: “The future is racial and economic justice.”Police are searching for information about the men in the video, as well as whoever filmed it.

The guy is in jail where he should be and will be for a long, long time. Lock him up and throw the keys away!

Fields, now the subject of a federal civil rights investigation, was arrested shortly after and charged with one count of second-degree murder, three counts of malicious wounding, and another count related to the hit-and-run, police said. He is being held without bail

I find your remarks to be personally abusive.

Seems like a senseless thing to do.  Christopher Columbus, nor George Washington, participated in the Civil War and fought to tear apart the Union or traitor activities.

Vandalism is wrong. Be it a statue, a Church, a mosque or a synagogue.

Worthy of note:   The statue was erected while Nancy Pelosi's father was Mayor of Baltimore.   He spoke at its dedication and contributed financially to its erection.

I don't understand what significance there is in that.
